Do you live near family? Or are you like me and live at least four hours from your closest relative? It is just terrible. I hate missing out on dinners, getting together with my siblings and most importantly, the birthdays and celebrations. Especially since all my siblings are in their baby-making years and I’m accumulating sweet nieces and nephews like crazy! If I lived closer, I’d be throwing parties every weekend. So many babies! Instead, I have to make do with birthday packages and cards.
And now that I have discovered, We R Makers 1-2-3 Punch Board and Banner Punch Board, my birthday packages are so much cuter! I’ve started making my own envelopes with this fabulous machine and sending “A Party In An Envelope” to my loved ones. I like to make the envelopes (seriously so easy with the Punch Board…it scores and everything) with brightly colored and patterned papers. I then fill them with confetti, a homemade happy birthday card (you can download the birthday cards pictured below HERE), a tissue fan and a tiny pennant garland that I made with banner punch board. My hope is that when the birthday boy or girl receive my envelope, they will open it and a BAM! Birthday surprise! Confetti pops out everywhere!
If you are a DIYer, crafter or party planner and are interested in the Punch Board, you can find this amazing pack available on HSN today. It’s the daily special!
I’m going to create a party and this post help me so much!
