Well it has certainly been a while. You know that you are really sick when you have no crafting desire whatsoever. Now that I am out of my first trimester however, I feel the crafting urge starting to kindle. I have not been completely unproductive though. My daughter's 5th birthday is approaching and there is nothing like a good party to get my crazy ideas flowing. We are going with a Strawberry Shortcake theme this year. Here is one project that I have been working on. It is a little present that she will give each of her friends during the party. I made the prototype a while ago and both of my girls have loved it.
I started with some plain 1 inch wooden blocks from Hobby Lobby. I printed and cut out pictures of Strawberry Shortcake and her friends. I Mod Podged them onto the blocks to make a super cute and fun party favor.
Each of the block puzzles will go in a little drawstring bag.
More party planning madness to come!!

I'm getting together a SS party for my daughter and was wondering where you printed the images from. I can't find any I like. THanks!
ReplyDelete@catherine0629- You can download the images for free at the websites http://www.hasbro.com/strawberryshortcake/en_US/ and http://www.agkidzone.com/strawberry-shortcake . I found that both had really good pictures of the characters. Hope that helps.
ReplyDeletefound this on pinterest and I LOVE it. I love how versatile it is as the pictures can be of whatever theme the party is going to have. I'm putting this in the back of my mind for my son's 5th birthday party next year. These are great.
