    Friday 23 April, 2010

    The first days of May we will celebrate Mother’s day and for many days I thought about how I could celebrate it without becoming crazy and, in the meantime, preparing something nice for my mother.

    In addition, now that I am also a mother, I thought about all those children who would like to create something with their own little hands and give it to their mommies… so why not offering them a little help from the web?

    While I was out for shopping I had an illumination: strawberries!

    They are beautiful, colored, everybody like them and it’s their season (which means that you can find them with no problem and without spending too much money). Perfect! It was the right idea to start thinking about a menu and also about a party theme, so I immediately run to my pc and drew a strawberry icon.. cute, and yet not enough…

    So I forwarded everything to my dear friend Paper Glitter and I proposed her to create something together: a new party kit to give for free on our sites!

    She immediately reacted with enthusiasm and she liked the idea so much that we had to “create” something immediately… With her talent the design became so much better and the items we came up with, are ultra cute!! Here the result to tease you ;-)

    My brother was sick these past days, so I had the girls over for the week-end…

    In order to spend a different Sunday morning, we decided to bake some biscuits all together (Nabiki included), but aside from baking, we also decided for a nice packaging as the biscuits became a small gift for their father.

    This is why I prepared some cute labels to close their small packages (they were so sweet because each girl had prepared her own one)…
