I finally got one thing checked off my to do list for Arden’s third birthday prep – a banner. Here’s a glimpse of it because I didn’t finish until late and therefore don’t have a shot of the completed banners.
And nope, I haven’t been lucky enough to get a Silhouette Cameo, so I do my stencils the old-fashioned way. I print out my letters, trace them by hand onto freezer paper and then painstakingly cut them out by hand using teeny tiny scissors. I actually enjoyed it up until my thumb knuckle started getting a dent in it because both girls were napping and I was catching up on Project Runway All Stars. The font is Elephant in case you’re wondering.
And here’s the soon-to-be birthday girl herself. This is the shot I used for her invitation – maybe not the best picture of her, but she just figured out how to hold up three fingers and she was wearing all pink in preparation for dance class so it worked for me!
I love that picture…love the concentration on Arden’s face! She is so cute!
