Feeling a little BLUE

Now that the birthday celebrations are over (we had 3 total - one for each monster...and one big one) & the cupcakes are out of the house - my clothes are a little snug :)...

it's time to focus on the 

65th Wedding Anniversary for my husband's grandparents.  

My mother-in-law asked if I would help plan a party for her parents. 

I said yes (because I LOVE the planning part).  

Since Sapphire is the traditional 65th Anniversary gift...

I started with the color blue for my inspiration. 

First up..invitations.  I came across Download and Print. 

I totally fell in love with this idea (FREE)!

It just so happened that the perfect invitation had just posted - made this decision pretty simple.

I printed the invitations on 'snowy' white cardstock - creating a little shine.  Then I mounted it on navy cardstock 

(which matches the colors of the scrolling design).  

They turned out pretty darn cute!

Next up was favors - gotta have some goodies too :)

This is where Pamela at Party Starters comes in.  She makes these super cute favor boxes and I had to have them.  

They will match the color scheme perfectly 

(and they are on their way to me right now-yipee)!

Next up will be a few centerpieces and other goodies...can't wait to see what I find!
