Hi Friends,

What a treat I have for you!! DT Lisa P shared her amazing project and it was so good that I broke it up into 2 posts. You will need to stay tuned tomorrow to see Day 2 of this Monster Beach Party post.

There is nothing better than having not just a party, but a Monster Beach Party, full of colorful invites, decorations and party favors. Lisa covered them all.

Hello, crafty friends! It’s Lisa P, and I’m here today with a party idea that was inspired by DeNami Design’s newly released Monster Beach Party stamp. As soon as I saw this stamp the summertime party ideas started flowing. Here’s what I came up with:

First up: invitations.

The invitations feature the new CL-M84 Monster Beach Party as well as the previously released F151 You’re Invited Block and B84 Sand. I kept the design simple so they would be easy to mass produce. The inside contains the party details.

Next: A party isn’t a party without cupcakes, right?!?! So, how about some cute cupcake toppers?!?!

The cupcake toppers feature two new images: CL-E184 Hula Monster and CL-E187 Chillin’ Monster. Fun! I die-cut circles from white cardstock, stamped the images onto the circles and added color with markers. Then, I die-cut scalloped circles (two for each topper). I adhered the stamped circle to the center of the scalloped circle, placed a toothpick behind it, and adhered the second scalloped circle as a backing. Super easy and an adorable way to decorate your party cupcakes!

I found some colorful sand buckets in the dollar section at Target, and thought they’d make great party favors! You could even fill each bucket with summer-themed items like beach balls, squirt toys, hats, etc. To decorate the sand buckets I made some tags:

And here’s how the tag looks once tied on to the bucket:

I made the tags using PPPD05 Stitched Duo 1 Dies from Pretty Pink Posh. Then, I decorated them with two previously released images: G136 Sand Castle and D135 Crab. I finished them off with a strip of patterned paper and some baker’s twine to tie them onto the buckets.

(To be continued tomorrow...)

Stay tuned for tomorrow's blogpost where Lisa P continues and share how she created treat bags, decorations and you will see the complete party collection displayed.
