jessie & woody (cowgirl/cowboy) party

my daughter loves jessie & woody from

toy story, so for her 6th birthday

that was her party theme.

to stay away from a commercialized party,

i focused on the cowgirl/cowboy idea.

i used a lot of bandanas, cow print, burlap,

jute, hay, and yellow (woody and jessie 

both have yellow in their outfits)

i also incorporated horses and horseshoes

into the decorations. 

the invitation:

return address labels:

the cake:

i used fondant for the first time.

it was actually pretty easy to work with.

wilton has ready made, already colored fondant

that i bought at joann fabrics.

she got these toy story guys for her birthday

the food:

the kids wrote their names on the horse

smore pops = best invention ever!

the pizza roll ups were a big hit!

kids love anything on a stick!

outfits i made:

i made this pillowcase dress out of 2 bandanas.

super easy/super cheap

the siblings got initial shirts.

the letter was cut out of a bandana 

and ironed on.

the games:

"there's a snake in my boot!" (quote by woody)

the kids tried to throw the snake 

into the boot(bucket).

we kept moving the line back to see 

who could make it the farthest away.

"water the horses"

fill your sponge with water in one bucket...

run to the other bucket...

squeeze out the water 

and run back to the next person.

first team to move all their water wins!

"pin the tail on bullseye"

(bullseye is jessie & woody's horse)

party favors:

i forgot to take a picture, 

so there were only 2 left here!

boy favor:

buzz & woody bottle cap keychain,

toy story fruit snacks, &

toy story trading card

girl favor:

jessie bottle cap necklace, 

toy story fruit snacks and trading card

i bought these cute necklaces and keychains from

presents by patience

thank you:

i made these thank you notes

for her to fill in.

classy programs

i recently did programs for my cousin's wedding

i saw these programs on theknot.com 

and wanted to use them as my inspiration

but her colors were teal, ivory and gold.

so instead of printing the black design onto the paper,

i decided to use my cricut to cut it out of 

gold shimmer paper.

i used 1/16 in ribbon to tie the booklet together.

i didn't want the teal to take over, 

so i just used it on their names...

and on the titles inside!

junior miss

here are some personalized cards i made 

for our town's junior miss.

they can be used as thank you cards 

or just for a special note.

her favorite color is teal 

so i used different shades on the card 

and teal rhinestone accents on the tiara.

congratulations karson 

and enjoy your reign!

super mario goodies

i created some new items for a friend who's son LOVES 

all things mario.

first here is his mario 

banner:

i think the stars make it extra cute!

cupcake toppers:

(she made the cupcakes look like the mario mushrooms!)

gift tags:

and even though i had nothing to do with it

...well i did offer A LOT of support...

i had to show the cake she made!

sneak peak: woody & jessie party

i am currently working on my daughter's 6th birthday party.

she loves woody and jessie from toy story.

since i'm not into the commercial "character" stuff, 

we are leaning toward a cowgirl/cowboy theme.

here are the invitations:

i wrapped bandana scrapbook paper around the invite, 

 but first i punched a hole for jessie to peak through.

once you slide the paper off, here is the invite!

i love the different fonts and sizes.  

i've been seeing a lot of this lately and think it looks so great!

coming soon... party reveal

there will lots of bandanas, cow print, & horseshoes!
