Are you enjoying your summer? It’ has been so quiet around here (my sincerest apologies!) which speaks for itself I suppose. We have been enjoying our summer so very much, and with only 4 weeks left to go before school starts we are going to try to enjoy every last little morsel of summertime sun and days at the beach that we possibly can. Which means, it will probably be quiet around here for a wee bit longer.

But I did have a rocking cool Etsy treasury to share with you! Stacey Iden of Break the Record included my Mix Tape DIY Printable Party Collection in her Treasury. How rocking cool is that? Screenshot!

Seriously, this never gets old :)

Looking for a little retro cool wedding inspiration? You should check out this Etsy Treasury, I’m seriously digging that cupcake stand.

{NEW TO SHOP} mix tape collection

May
17

I am so excited to have this collection in my Etsy shop! Earlier this year I had a request to design a rocking good 40th birthday party. One very quick brainstorming session later, I went to work on designing a mix tape party. I can’t tell you how much fun it was designing this party (it was a lot of fun!) as a creator of mix tapes back in the day of tapes. It made me pull out all of my old mix tapes for inspiration!

Then it got me to thinking… So many of my friends are turning 40 this, including my husband. All of us, creators of mix tapes. Once I realized the generation of mix tapes creators were turning 40, I knew I had to get this collection out super fast! I mean, is there a better way for the tape generation to celebrate their birthdays? I think not! So whether you’re turning 40 or 37, this collection is for you! 

And let me tell you there is a lot to choose from in this collection! There are 6 colours to choose from for the Mix Tape Invitations, and 36, yes 36 colour and design combinations for the Party Circles, Banner, Favor Tags and Tent Cards! Rocking good times! And because I want you to be able to mix it up on your birthday, you can choose 2 invitation colours and 4 design/colour combinations for the other pieces of your party.

I am so in love with this collection and it’s on sale in my Etsy shop for 50% OFF for a limited time!

Head on over to my Etsy shop to order your Mix Tape Collection!

P.S. Don’t worry you vinyl lover you, I’ve got a High Fidelity Collection in the works :) .

{crafty customers} eddie’s mix tape birthday

May
12

Last Friday I shared Emmett’s rocket ship party which was sent in by Eryn, one of my sweet and crafty customers. Eryn also sent me pictures of her husband Eddie’s 40th birthday party, a we love crafty Tracey custom design, to share with you!

Eddie is a rock and roll fan and grew up during the era of tapes (me too!), so for his birthday we created a mix tape design. Do you remember the days of tapes? Staying up all night, listening to the radio with your finger hovering over the record button on your tape player, waiting for your favorite song? Remember creating mix tapes for your sweetheart and best friend? Yeah, that’s what I was thinking when I designed this party for Eddie!

Eryn came up with rock and roll inspired dishes for Eddie’s party based on Eddie’s favorite bands and songs. It was so much fun designing this party and I can’t wait for you to check out Eryn’s pictures!

Eryn used the set of blank tapes to create a board for Eddie’s friends to fill in their best aging advice. I wonder what they said!

She decorated every area of the house to keep the theme consistent throughout!

I love how she used actual tape to accent the printables! I have to wonder what tape she unraveled here? Hmmm.

The drinks and food items were customized using (Eddie’s favorite) band names and song titles.

Eryn, I love the UB 40 tapes on the cake! Red, Red Wine – love that song!

Thanks again for sharing Eryn! I’m so glad Eddie loved his party decor, I had such a blast putting it together. It made me dig out all my favorite mix tapes, now I have to find my old tape player.

Want to mix it up at your next birthday? Don’t worry, the Mix Tape Collection is going to hit my Etsy shop later this week!
