Craft Party

Many heartfelt thanks to the amazing Waterbabies for throwing us a craft party today. Diana, you are my personal craft guru, wedding cheerleader and water exercise partner. Thank you for envisioning and making this party happen along with the ever gracious hosts, Heather and Eric. To all the ladies who brought delicious home grown and hand selected delicacies--yum! Despite a few craft casualties we completed all three projects. THANK YOU!!!!

We had a blast printing our invitations with letterpress guru Nif Hodgson at Kala Art Institute.

Big thanks to the one and only CJ Dunn for his beautiful invitation and blog design. More about CJ and Copter Design Studio http://copterdesign.com/
