Ladybug Themed Birthday Party with FREE Printables!



Hi everyone! My name is Erin and I'm the DIY wannabe behind How to Nest for Less!
 
I'm excited to be back again blogging with Toni at Design Dazzle! Hope you guys enjoy my latest project... a Ladybug Themed Birthday Party with FREE printables! 

For this 1st birthday party, I created some food table cards, cupcake liners, a birthday garland and water bottle labels for some extra pizzazz around the room. Let's get this party started!

The water bottle labels should be printed on a glossy white paper so the condensation from the cold water doesn't quickly dissolve the paper label. Five labels are printed on one sheet of 8.5x11 inch paper. You can also add a little personal message to the top and bottom of the label!

I actually printed my cupcake liners on scrapbook paper using my Silhouette Cameo, but if you don't have that resource, you can use this printable and trim by hand!

I love the idea of table cards for the various foods you serve at your party, especially if you have guests with allergies. The printable leaves the center blank so you can customize to your menu!

And finally we have a cute little birthday garland for the cute little ladybug! Just print out the number of blank circles you need for the letters and you can use the ladybugs circles as spacers. Or use this printable as a pattern for scrapbook paper! I simply glue the lettered circles on the scalloped circles.



Then I used a hole punch to create two holes in each piece and strung them along with red ribbon. Super simple project!

Well, that's it for today! I hope everyone enjoys the ladybug birthday party printables! And I hope you can come visit me soon at my blog, How to Nest for Less!

Toni, thanks so much for inviting me to Design Dazzle for the day!
Much ♥ to everyone, Erin

1st Year Birthday: Safari Adventure Party

This is for sure the most amazing Safari birthday party I've ever seen!! The animal silhouettes and colors are absolutely perfect for a birthday event.  Loralee from No Fuss Fabulous was the mastermind behind this totally awesome 1st year birthday for her son. Are you trying to come up with birthday ideas for 1st year parties? The Safari theme is perfect for families, girls and boys attending the party, etc.





Deli sandwiches wrapped in wax paper, leopard print and twine. Loving this!


Kids lunch sacks were made ahead of time with healthy foods and snacks. Loving the cute
orange gift bags.





Inside each favor bag animal crackers are wrapped in a cellophane bag.  To save time and effort, Loralee made a bag for each family instead of each guest. Great idea!!
