It’s a Martha Stewart Wreath

admin — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 07:33:29 +0000

Christmas is definitely in the air especially now that our Christmas tree is already up. It’s been a practice here in my in-laws house that as soon as the Halloween is over, it’s time to unearth and put up our Christmas decors. Basically, Filipinos really do start Christmas early and in fact, we celebrate the longest holiday in the world. As soon as the calendar hits the “ber” months (September), Christmas jingles can be heard on the airwaves and the countdown to Christmas begins. Being predominantly a Catholic country, we just love the season as it is the merriest time of the year with never ending parties, bountiful feasting, gift-giving, and of course, reflecting on the true meaning of the season.

Anyway, back to Christmas decors, we’re almost through putting them all up except for the wreath on the door. We retired the old one so we’re looking out for a replacement and in just a snap, I right away found the one we adore. This Martha Stewart Golden Cedar Wreath.

This fresh-cut cedar wreath measures 18 inches in diameter and is elegantly accentuated with golden glass ornament balls and a gold satin ribbon for hanging. This will be perfect for our front door as it festively greets and welcome our guests to our humble abode.

Proofs.

admin — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 17:48:39 +0000

Lately, I abhor having my pictures taken up close because the evidences of my working until late night habit are clearly visible: zits on the forehead, deep set and dark under eye circles seemingly begging for an eye cream in desperation. Include in the list a pale and anemic looking face so just imagine how have I been working hard lately. I’m not complaining really..in fact, I’m thankful even because it only means that I’ll have an additional funding for the husband’s ultimate Christmas gift wish: a new lens for our ND60.

Cute and Fast Photo Birth Announcements

admin — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 15:28:27 +0000

Free Photo Birth Announcements

Photo Birth Announcements are getting hipper by the minute. Some parents go as far as hiring a baby photographer specialist just so to get the cutest and most adorable shot of their newborn to put on the birth announcements photo cards. Well, I don’t blame them for they are just so proud and feel exhilarated to present their bundle of joy to the whole world. Further, we can’t deny the fact that recipients would more likely pay attention or spend more time staring at the photos rather than on the birth details. Photo birth announcement cards enable friends and family to imagine and determine who does the new baby look like between the two parents and sometimes, even the grandparents.

Coming up with birth photo announcements isn’t actually tough as most think. Birth-cards make it a lot easier by presenting the layout then allowing the buyer to customize it through photo addition, wordings, font color and style modification, etc. Through their patented instant preview engine, the buyer will have the chance to see it before finalizing the order. Within an hour, http://www.birth-cards.com/ will come up with the proof for the approval before they proceed with the printing and shipping of the order. Isn’t that fast? By the way, they also give free 10 cards thank you and free shipping..isn’t that even greater?

Memorable Party Baby Shower.

admin — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 15:15:10 +0000

Unique Baby Shower Party

Last month, I organized a very simple Party Baby Shower for a friend who was on her 38th week of pregnancy then. We could have held it earlier but she was so busy with her work that schedules wouldn’t fix. It’s just sad because we could have made the party more memorable if we were able to come up with printed baby invitations. We were so pressed for time then that I wasn’t able to make one (I also do digital scrapbooking, by the way). Blame it on the anesthesia that was loaded to my system when I gave birth. It’s only now that I remembered about Cards-411, the specialist for online invitations announcements cards.

I have seen already their site before at http://www.cards-411.com/ and I was impressed with their creative and unique baby invitations designs. But what makes them even more commendable is their overly fast service. The can come up with the proof within an hour and before hitting the buy button, one can view the layout via their Instant Preview engine. That’s not all because they can also print and have it shipped the same day that you approved them. Really, if not only for my forgetful self, the baby shower would have been made more memorable with these baby shower invitation cards.

It is best to include the first photos of your newborn so that the recipient can have a first glance of the reason of your joy. And of course, part of it is that they want to see who does the baby look like.

Other substantial parts to include in baby announcement cards are the name of the baby, and the time and date he or she was born.

Coed Bundle of Joy Announcements.

admin — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 13:09:04 +0000

Printable Baby Invitations

The baby shower theme can be quite a concern especially on the Invitation Baby cards if the baby’s gender is still not known. For most parents, they have it confirmed via the ultrasound at around 16 weeks of pregnancy or onwards. While there are some who’d rather be surprised and not know the gender until the big day. In such cases, it would be best to have coed baby shower invitations. Having a black and white theme such as this layout will do.

There’s a wide selection of coed invitations baby at CardsShoppe. Aside from the theme and colors, their creative artists can come up with a personalized design should you want to veer away from the ready-made designs by including photos, logos and any other images. At http://www.cardsshoppe.com/, they can modify any detail for free should there be corrections or revisions on the draft.

Trick or Treat Halloween Party.

admin — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 09:47:43 +0000

Invitations Halloween

With a very unpredictable weather in a tropical country like ours, I think it would be better to distribute a similar Halloween Invitation such as on the right for the kids’ welfare. Have an exclusive Trick or Treat in just one house followed by a grand kiddie Halloween Party afterwards rather than go trick or treating around the neighborhood on a very rainy weather. I’m sure the kids (and parents) will get equally excited to receive such Halloween Invitations. After all, it’ll be more of the party fun that is looked forward to more than the sweet treats to be distributed. Probably, it’ll be more alluring if you put on the Invitation Halloween about the Halloween games and Halloween-themed foods to expect on the party.

Speaking of Halloween Party Invitations, you have to check out the large collection of unique and personalized designs at Invitations-Shoppe. They have all sorts of spookiest and the most creative Halloween elements and wordings and they can even customize according to your preference let’s say you want to add your own picture, logo, etc. I heard the invites at http://www.invitations-shoppe.com/ are now offered with irresistible deals such as free 10 cards thank you and free shipping. I’m sure in these difficult economic times, freebies are very well appreciated.

Invitation Halloween Party

A party is not complete without the food. Along side with the planning and drafting of Halloween Party Invitations for your Halloween Party, the menu must also be planned ahead. For a more exciting October 31st party, try to come up with Halloween-themed foods to the table to help set the spooky atmosphere. Then on the Halloween Invitation, you can make the party table sound tempting ahead by indicating the Halloween-themed foods like: bloody punch, skull salsa, witches fingers (butter cookies), meringue bones, vampire dip, peg leg chicken and a lot more on the Party Halloween Invitations. You will surely get your guests’ appetite go wild.

At Holiday-Invitations, you will see more creative layouts indicating similar gross food wordings. But unlike preparing the food (shop groceries, prepare the ingredients and cook), ordering these Invitations Halloween at http://www.holiday-invitations.com/ only takes more or less just one hour. The artistic and speedy staff can come up with the proof of your order within an hour of which you can either make revisions on or give the go signal to proceed with the printing. Their patented Instant Preview engine will let you see the sample layout. If there’s nothing to modify and you’re all set with it, they can print it right away and have it shipped the same day. Now all you just have to do is wait for the delivery of the invites.
