I am not going to lie ... most days we are hot mess here at this little three ring circus I am apart of! I have a great husband, a darling doodlebug of a daughter, two, yes two, boston terriers and a cat ... that is a lot of feet running around!! I love all things creative! I am not the best at anything, but I love to see what other great creative things people do and try to incorporate them into my life! I will warn you, with all this creativity comes the high probability of the following: miss spelling, ranting, random shinanagans! Consider yourself warned.

Crab First Birthday Party

It has been an HOT and busy summer! Just when you think all is going to calm down BAM ... how about a baby number 2 on the way and a new job. AHH. Well in between all the craziness I am helping a girlfriend throw her baby a first crabby birthday party!

The inspiration came from a nickname daddy gave to his little girl and we coupled it with a low country shrimp boil, throw in some vintage feeling colors and patterns and you have one darn cute little girls birthday party.





I created the invitations in Illustrator. Cut it out and glued it onto red card stock. Added a little sparkle on the bow and presto done! I used pink envelopes and stamped the outside with a little aqua crab on the front - so cute and super cheap!

I did buy the little crab artwork from: StockBerry Studio. She has some great stuff go check her out! The digital page below was only $5!   (the image below belongs to Stockberry Studio) check out her Etsy site to purchase the image)
The vintage, low country, crab spectacular is sure to have some wonderful decorations! I will share more as we get them all completed!
