Invites and Decor for B's Birthday

It was pretty hard this year to think of a theme for B's 2nd birthday. I had thought Little Mermaid theme would work cause of her love for that movie. I also thought a Dr. Seuss theme would be fun cause she just loves to read books. I then thought a Disney Princess party, she loves to dress up in all the little outfits Santa gave her for x-mas. I wanted to wait for the mermaid and princess party till she had a few friends come over and they could be princesses/mermaids too. I got to talking to my little sister about B's birthday and she told me to do a Valentine birthday and i was hooked!

Pinks, reds, white, purples, gold, and silver have been dancing in my head ever since! So for my invites I decided to make them as Valentines. Like the old school valentines you'd make for your parents with the big heart shaped doilies, stickers, glitter, and markers. I ended up getting some white heart doilies, red cut out hearts, and pink, red, and white foam hearts. I decided to do a watercolor paint on paper with the party info on it and glue it to the red heart cutouts that was glues to the doilies. Around the outside of the watercolor paper I stuck glitter foam hearts. Overall I really liked it! It was the same sort of valentines I'd make for my parents. I bought pink and purple envelopes and mailed them out to family and friends. 

As for my decorations, I made this cute tassel garland

I made these hanging heart strings with cute out hearts and clear fishing line. 

I have other store bought decorations to put up around the kitchen and dinning room. Like red poms and valentines garland.


I think everything turned out awesome!
