Decorate to Celebrate # 42 - Any Themed Party

Happy Wednesday!! I hope you are having a great week!! It's time for a Decorate to Celebrate challenge. For Challenge #42, we are asking you to create any project to be used as a party decoration (or party supply) for any themed party!! Let's celebrate everything wonderful about birthdays, anniversaries, celebrations and more (any party with any theme) with your table decorations, party banners, pennants, yard signs, cupcakes, party favors and more :)


For my party themed decorations, I created origami picture frame holders as party favors. You can take a picture during the party and then slide it in over the polka dot paper for a party keepsake. The papers are from Glitz Laced With Grace paper stack. It takes four of the same size of paper for the origami folds (I used 4x4). It's been a while since I learned this fold and it took me several tries before I got it right. Once each piece is folded, the ends slide together to form the frame. The butterfly is a Spellbinders Fanciful Flight die, adorned with gems from Recollections and popped up with foam tape for dimension.


The sentiment tag is a Tim Holtz Idea-ology Word Band.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
  1. DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge - Anything Goes
  2. Sunday Funday #5 - Anything Goes
Now it's your turn!! Head on over to Decorate to Celebrate to see the amazing projects my talented design team sisters have created for today's challenge. Then link up your Any Party Theme project...I can't wait to see what you create :)

    I just noticed that you used the Grand Calibur. I have a Cuttlebug and Vagabond... am wondering if I should get this also. Have you any advice?

    My sweetest friend, I positively adore your party favor picture holders! What an incredible idea! It's such a heartwarming thought that everyone at the event will frame a photograph to keep those memories close at heart. Naturally, your execution of the project is flawless! The fluttering butterfly paper is so pretty and I love the Spellbinders one, particularly with the pretty musical score paper. :o) The polka dotted frame space is lovely as it waits for a memory to embrace. :o) Marvelous and gorgeous as always, my dear friend. I hope you're having a sparkly week! :o)

    Hugs and blessings!
