Times are Changing!!

I havent really been posting, which is something that I had promised to myself that I would do more often. Things around here are about to change!!

There has been some commotion around Casa De Sousa. We recently re located from Riverside County Ca to Contra Costa CA. We are finally settled in to our house. A great thing about the move is that my husband no longer is traveling weekly, every week for work, and another awesome thing is that I am now a stay at home mom. I get to spend all the time in the world with my son, and hope to create a business doing party invitations and decor.

I cant wait to see what's going to happen in this next chapter of our lives!!!

Dora the Explorer Safari Party

I had so much fun making these party invitations and decor. The invites had an ombre colored background, and to finish them off, I added some glitter! 

These were party hats in the making, I had to include all of Dora's friends in the decor!

The birthday girl turned 3, and her cousins made her the cupcakes.

I customized some napkin rings, they were all with different characters.

 Some chalkboard food signs inside a burlap/rock container added a cute touch.

A big Dora back drop and a table full of goodies for the guests. The table was also used for the birthday girl to open up her presents.

Each table had different safari animals, safari hats, cone hats as centerpieces, and items guests can take home.

Diego of course made it to the party!!

Birthday girl. I made her a shirt with the same Dora image on her invitation.

Stroller Card

My nephew is expecting his first baby this summer, and he had an all guys baby shower. I made this card that had his name instead of Daddy, and had my husband take it with the gift.

Orange and Navy Blue Paisley Baptism Invitation

My sister and her husband baptized their son this month. My sister wanted a different look for the invite, she liked the paisley pattern. I created this invite and custom made the nave blue envelopes, I can't believe how hard it is to find packs of solid color envelopes.

Ice Skating Invite

My niece turned 14 this past March, and she had an ice skating party. Here is  the invite I did. Its not that great of a picture, sorry. Not sure if you can tell, but I embossed the paper after I printed it with vanilla scented glitter from stamping up.
