Sweet 16! August 30, 2008

My sister just celebrated her 16th birthday. I can’t believe my baby sister is old enough to drive now. What a trip! Well, her and her friend decided to combine their birthdays into one big party. The girls and their friends hopped in a party bus to dinner, then they got some ice cream, then it was back to the house for a pool party. I think the girls and all that were invited will be talking about the party for weeks. I guess that’s how you know you had a great party!

Here is the invitation I made for her party.

I love finding funny cards that make you laugh out loud. I’m usually the girl in the stationary stores cracking up and reading all of the cards until I have 5 in my hand and have to narrow it down to just one or two.

Whimsy Press (http://www.whimsypress.com/index.php) has a ton of hilarious cards. I absolutely love all of them. Here are a few of my favorites.

They also have great wrapping paper. I love that it’s simple and graphic, plus the quality of it is second to none. If you’re tired of wrapping gifts and having the paper be so thin that you can see through it or it rips every time you try to smooth a corner, then this is the stuff for you! Here are a few of my favorite designs.
