Baby Shower Decor (Dinosaur Themed)

As promised from my previous post of dinosaur thank you cards I'm sharing some home decor project I recently made for my baby shower my friend hosted for me.   For these home decor projects I mostly used the stamp set from lawn fawn called "Critters from the Past". 


I made this very cute and detailed centerpiece using the Lawn Fawn stamp set. I created a dinosaur scene using all the stamps from the set.  To create the "Coming Soon" banner I used thin craft dowels from the $1 store. To get the flag shape I used the My Favorite Things Fishtail Flags Layers STAX die-namics and used a stencil to draw on the letters.  Then it is stung up by some blue twine.  In the picture you can't see it well but there is also dinosaur foot prints and the little sign next to the baby dinosaur says "April 5, 2015" which is my due date.  Lastly all of the little pieces are attached to a flower dry foam block using toothpicks.  I also covered it in saran wrap and clear tape to not get the green foam on my fingers or the food at the party.

I stamped, colored and cut out even more dinosaurs and made them be muffin toppers.  They are attached to toothpicks and poked into the muffins.  There were 12 muffins to be exact so 12 dinosaurs hanging out. The muffins not only looked cute with the dinosaurs on top but they tasted great too. They were Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins, I made them and they are definitely one of my favorite muffins ever.

Here is another shot of the muffins with the dinosaur muffin toppers only this time it features the homemade cake pops in the stand as well.

Just for fun because I could and I saw this idea on Pinterest I created this cute favor bags for all the guests.  Again using the Lawn Fawn stamp set I got out the baby dinosaur stamp and made these little tags that say "Thanks so much" and then when all was filled inside I used a green staple to attach the tag to the clear treat bag.   In the treat bag is a actually a plastic Easter egg filled with starburst candy and a tag from the Lawn Fawn stamp set too that says "You're Dino-mite" (As you can see in the picture below) and sitting on top of the Easter egg is a plastic dinosaur which I found in the $1 section at target. (I got a whole bag of tons for just $1)


Then last but not least is another project that I made and I love how it turned out. The banner itself is an already pre-made banner from Target and then I just added the word RAWR and of course the dinosaurs.  The dinosaurs are a digital stamp/graphic from prettygrafik. I just made them super big on my home printer colored them, cute them out and added them to the banner and there you go.

Get Kids Crafty May Blog Hop Gardening theme

It's that time of month again where I share a fun crafty project that I made with my kiddo Riley for Get Kids Crafty. Hello and thank you for joining us for the May Get Kids Crafty! blog hop! We are thrilled to have you! Our theme this month is gardening and our kids have created some AMAZING projects to share with you! We had a lot of fun creating our project this month. We made a bumble bee mobile.  Both my kids love the song bringing home my baby bumble bee. Especially my youngest Liam, it seems to usually calm him down when he's upset.  So we created this fun project to the theme of the song.      First we had to die cut our bees, Here is Riley playing with an already cut bee in the Big Shot machine.      Here is Riley turning the handle on the Big Shot machine to cut out all our bees. We had to do 16 in total one for the front and back as you will see in a little bit. Here is what the finished bee looks like and the die cut that we used from
