Can you even believe summer break is just around the corner?  Hi friends!  It’s Wendy Sue Anderson here today, and I am in awe, wondering how the snow has melted and flowers are blooming and the final school bell for this year will be ringing soon!  I think that calls for a party!!

Throw a Bright and Happy Summer Party

And this time, it’s all about the girls!  Of course, part of the fun of having a party is planning and decorating – so I was anxious to put Jen’s “Chasing Adventures” collection to work for me.  The floral prints and fun girl accents were just the perfect elements to decorate for the girl’s party I wanted to plan.

Make a DIY Summer Party Banner

I started with a simple “summer” banner that was easy to whip up with my Silhouette machine and plenty of pretty papers and accents.  Isn’t that bike rider the CUTEST???

Add Paper Accents from the Chasing Adventures Line

And the camera-wielding gal just makes me want to go on a vacation so I can take cute pictures!

Sew Elements for an Added Touch

Oh, I almost forgot to mention that I put my sewing machine to work on this banner too – I love adding colorful stitching to projects as a subtle little detail.

Decorate Cupcakes with Paper Wrappers

Of course, any party that’s worth having needs treats!  Cupcakes are the perfect treat – because cupcakes.

Create Easy Cupcake Toppers

The patterned papers make cute little wraps and I added some more of the cute summer girls as cupcake toppers!

Wrap Water Bottles in Pretty Paper

Water always tastes better on a hot summer day – and if it’s been cutified and ready to sip through a fun straw, all the better!

Create Paper Party Favor Bags

Everyone knows that giving guests a fun little favor bag is just as fun as receiving gifts!

Use a Cut File to Create the Bags

These little favor bags were easy to whip up with coordinating papers and a silhouette cut file!

Add Simple Paper Tags

The tags were easily added by cutting some of the square/rectangle elements into tag shapes and tying on with colorful string.
