It's Lisa with you again today for another ''how do you use your Project Life Cards''?
We are thinking outside the box remember?
Being a busy Mum myself. I have a 14 and 12yr old and I run my own business. I work very long hours. I made a promise to myself at the start of the year that I was going to make an effort to see my friends more. Once my youngest started senior school in September and the school runs stopped, I found that it was easy not to keep up with friends like I used to.
I make sure that once every couple of weeks I take a break during my work schedule to meet with friends and have a coffee.
This week I hosted a girlie dinner party for 5 of my favourite girl friends. They didn't all know each other that well but I knew that they would all get on.
I wanted to treat them all to some lovely food and table treats and make them all feel special.
It was so much fun.
For me personally, I love all the planning.
I sent each of them a little invitation.
I made the invites using the Prima Instascrap cards here.
I used a corner punch to round off the corners and stuck down on some cardstock before trimming.
I had some old roses that I attached with some pva glue and a strip of washi tape.
To add that ultimate girlie touch, I ran some Stickles glitter around the edges and on the rose.
I was so pleased with how they came out.
The dinner party went down really well. I was so happy to spend such a lovely evening with these lovely ladies. I dressed the table beautifully.
I made sweet little table favour/place settings using old jars, washi tape and tags (and blossom from the garden)
And lovely food all from scratch to treat my friends.
I highly recommend an evening like this. We had so much fun.
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope all you Mums are being spoilt today.
