Woodland Fairy Birthday Party

Over a month ago, I posted one of my latest projects where my regular client from Germany pulled two party themes (Fairy and Woodland) from my shop and made them into one theme: Woodland Fairy, for her daughter's 5th birthday party. That is one great theme for a girl's party, I concurred.

Since the first time we discussed this project (the back and forth messages on the little details and yes we both are so detailed oriented gals!), I have already had this giddy feeling that I could not wait to have everything completed and see the end project.

I recently received pictures of these adorable items in action at Zoe's party, displayed to decorate every part of her party. I have a big smile the whole time I look at the pictures, every single time.  I can't thank her mom enough for sharing pictures....as she always does.

I hope you enjoy in looking at these as much as I do. Be inspired, if you will.

 Hoot Hoot, the owl tent card requested in blank so that she could hand-write the food name.

 

Pretty Personalized Fairy and Woodland Cupcake Toppers with ribbon jazzing up the delicious cupcakes.

She is definitely one creative momma.

 

Here she made fairy star wands and adhere cute fairy stickers in the centre. So sweet!

 
I love the toad stool! 

And oh my, how adorable this ornament is? Adorned with my fox tag as part of the woodland tags she purchased. And more below....

I just feel I'm in the woodland black forest and hanging out with little fairies.

And here, I'm just speechless. Too adorable!
  

Here is the Fairy Centerpiece, personalized it of course, that I made for her is perfect as a Cake Topper.   And the cake itself is a work of art!! Wow.

Want to see more pictures? Take a peek here. I'm sure you want to hang out there a little longer :-)


Thank you for dropping by. Until next time! 

Creations of the Week: Flowers Bunch

These are SUPER adorable cards. Okay, I may be biased, but I'll let you be the judge. Leave me a comment whether you like it or not and trust me, I won't be offended :-)

The flowers are made from flower punches tied together with cute buttons. The leaves are handcut and I don't have a template for that....simply hand cutting and gauge the size.

I'm hoping I can list them at my shop sometimes tonight if not tomorrow, but if you really like them, simply contact me :-) If you like the papers that I use, feel free to browse my natsupplies shop where I have some destashed papers sold in great bargain.

My last note, if you haven't entered a great giveaway to win ceramic love birds designed by Orly Design, then why wait? Enter here please.

Giveaway Contest

I'm sure we all love giveaways! When I started this blog a few months ago, I mentioned that I'd do a giveaway at some point. It just has to be done in the right time. So what is a better time than now, a couple of weeks away from my Adore By Nat 2nd year Etsy-versary? Those of you who read my yesterday post probably can't wait :-)

So what is it? or may be the right question is: What ARE they?

How about a $10 Adore By Nat Gift Certificate and a set of Printable Christmas Postcards, a $6 value (shown below) designed by VinK, owner and artist of Million Minds and Design By Vink?


This cute printable design is a limited edition which means, VinK designed them especially for the winners. Sorry, this will not be available for others. Now, those of you that don't win, please don't get panicked. You can still find similar designs at her store. What's so good about printable design? Well, you can print them as many as you like without having to break the bank (except the cost of printing, of course).

By the way, did I just say winners? You betcha! To make this an even sweeter giveaway contest, I will pick 3 winners. One lucky winner will get $10 gift certificate and printable Christmas postcards, while two winners will each get printable Christmas postcards.

How to enter to win:

1. Go to my Adore By Nat store and one of VinK stores: Million Minds or Design By Vink.
   
2. Return to my Adore By Nat blog and simply leave a comment here about our stores (both VinK and mine). I.e. your favorite items.

Contest starts now and ends on November 4, 2008 (my Etsy-versary ;-) Yei!)
One entry per person please. Don't forget to leave me your e-mail address. Entries without contact information will be disqualified. Contest winners will be drawn on Wednesday, November 5th by a random number generator. Winners must respond within 48 hours after being contacted otherwise another winner will be randomly selected.

To end my post of the day, I would like to let you know about how I adore this beautiful print, Dilemma.
I love the fact that behind each VinK's illustration lies an original story (read her blog to know more). It shows her cultural background and the ethnicity of Indonesia. This makes hers a truly one-of-a-kind one that you simply cannot find it anywhere else in Etsy.
