Baptism

Our love was baptized this past weekend

he was such a good boy & didn't cry or get fussy at all (phew!)

I just wanted to share some of the DIY things I made for his reception

Here is his Christening invitation

I used this spell binders die for the cross & I loved the embossed detail

the layers came out really nice but it was a pain to put pop up tape for each individual layer.

I also needed a table seating chart I found this board at Hobby Lobby for 90% off DEAL!!!!

I just repainted the design using acrylic paint & a sharpie metallic marker & Voila!

I was going to draw on the "chalk board" part of the board

BUT I tried 3 different types of chalk markers & real chalk & nothing would write on the board!

So, I did the next best thing & just cut it out on my cricut.

I liked how it turned out but I wish I could've drawn on it.

I didn't make his cake hahahhaha I don't have time for that LOL

for his centerpieces & table numbers I just bought a bunch of white flowers & arranged it myself

I bought some colored mason jars fr Michaels

& just cut out table numbers & embossed it to match his invitations

I also needed to decorate his christening bib

I wanted something classic so I just bought silver iron on vinyl

and made this simple design

That is pretty much everything I made for his baptism.

It is so hard to craft with this little guy!

I definitely take advantage when its nap time

he is so much more active these days :)

 

Happy FRIDAY!
