Angry Birds Invitation and Printable

Preparations are in full swing for
Michael's 5th Birthday Party.

Our theme this year is
Angry Birds
and I have been compiling lots of wonderful ideas from the blogosphere.

First up were invitations 
and there were so many adorable options.

I opted to create my own with the help of Corel Draw.
And THIS great site with free Angry Birds fonts!

Here are the finished invites.
Sorry for the edited bits.
I won't lie, I was thrilled with how they turned out.
Corel Draw and I have a bumpy past.
Jaime, being the Corel Expert in this household was impressed.

Enjoy!

XOXO,

Irish Blessings - Free Printable

I'll admit it, I'm not Irish. :)
I also normally do not decorate for St. Patrick's Day.
However, after seeing so many lovely St. Patty's Day projects from such talented bloggers,
I got in the spirit!

Everyone is considered Irish on St. Patrick's Day, right?

Here is my contribution, a Irish Blessing free printable.

I hope you all enjoy it, and may you be Blessed.

XOXO,

It's the same in any language.


What is better than hearing, "I love you"?
Not much in by book,
unless someone says, "You've won $20 Million Dollars". 
Is it wrong that indecent proposal popped into my head.

Anyway, moving on.

I am continuing to step my toe into the Corel Draw waters
and came up with this pretty printable.

Again, Jaime teared up (or said jeez, it's about time you learned that program.)



I love you in the following languages
In order of appearance

English
Spanish
French
German
Japanese
Italian
Chinese
Swedish
Eskimo
Greek
Hawaiian
Irish
Hebrew
Mexican
Russian
Gaelic
Arabic
Japanese again
Filipino (Tagalog)

Are you cooler than...

Our fun little Valentine?


I mean, he's a quite the cool character.
and you can't beat those sparkly shades for the girls.
I want a pair.

I whipped up this cute duo 
for Michael's Class Valentines.
Can you believe I couldn't find Heart Shaped Glasses?
Just as well, I'm sure the boys in his class would
not have been thrilled with those.

Cast of Character

Mod Podge and brush
Sunglasses (I got a pack from the Dollar Store)
Glitter
Clear Nail Polish
Owl Printable (download it HERE)
Ribbon


Ok to get started apply Mod Podge to one side
of the glasses frame with the brush.


Once applied, sprinkle your glitter liberally over that area to cover.


Repeat the process on the other side.
And allow to dry.


Next up is the clear polish. 
Apply the polish to directly over the glitter.
It will seal the glitter and prevent it from shedding.
We don't want glitter in little eyes.


Here is after the clear polish dried.
As you can see the glitter is more tame
but just as sparkly!


Print and cut out the owl tags.

(I made this little guy from scratch in 
Corel Draw.
Jaime, being a Graphic Designer, was very proud.  
Said I was finally using the good stuff.
He may have even shed a tear.)
lol.


Tada!


Last step is to punch a hole on one side of the tag.
Take your ribbon and tie the tag to the 
leg of the sunglasses.


Happy Valentine's Day! 

XOXO

Those are some Angry Birds.



So this is what those pesky 1X1 glass tiles have been transformed into

Angry Birds Magnets!

I had originally made these little guys last year for an auction
to benefit a group of 
Incredible, Sweet, Supportive, Hot, Funny and Creative moms.
{Go OOF!}

As soon as my little Angry Birds addict saw them, he fell in love.
I promised him I would make him a set of his own.
Better late than never, right?

So a bit of a flashback to my last kiln POST
These little guys were pretty fiesty and I had to start from scratch.

When I finally opened up the big kiln and found perfect little clear tiles,
I was thrilled!



 I gathered some pics and created a little Angry Birds printable last year
and picked my favorite feathered friends.
Oh, and some of those mean little pigs, too.


Get your Angry Birds printable page HERE.

So here is my list of materials to create this fun little guys.


Clear Glass Tiles or Blobs
Angry Birds printable
Mod Podge and Brush
Magnets
Strong Glue
Pen and Scissors 

First, Take you glass tile and make sure the image fits.


I do this for all my tiles and images.


Trace around each tile with your pen and cut out the shape.
Be sure to cut inside the line.
I also line up my tiles in the same order and set aside.



Grab your first tile and corresponding cut out.
Paint a layer of Mod Podge to the back of the tile

and then place the picture
Face Down on the Mod Podge.


Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the back of the paper 
and set aside to dry.
You should apply at least 3 coats, allowing drying time in between.


Once dry, take your magnets and apply some glue to the back.
Center the magnet on the back of the tile and press.
Let Dry.


Notice how I have them spaced out?
If you keep the magnets too close they will pull towards eachother.
(Yes, this is from experience and a mess of glue and magnets everywhere.)


And here is the finished product!


Super cute, functional and 
they made my little man giggle. 

Ok, they make me giggle, too.  I love them.
Hope you do, too.


XOXO
