While planning a baby shower I thought it would be cute to do the Hershey Kiss stickers you see all over pinterest/etsy as part of the table decorations. You will need to create 3/4" diameter stickers for these. I believe Avery makes labels in a size that will work but I used my Silhouette Cameo and regular sticker paper to do this project. It was super simple to create images in the Silhouette program using the same graphics I used on the rest of the baby shower projects I did. I got 40 stickers per sheet. I might have been able to get more done but my printer is extremely fussy and if I take up too much of the print and cut area it will completely cut off my project during printing! I was too afraid of wasting ink and sticker paper to see just how many I could get out of there.
I am going to try and do a video tutorial soon on these since they were so cute and such a hit I'm going to make them for Landon's 5th birthday. Yes, I am THAT mother that is already planning her child's birthday when he still has 7 months until then...

Disney Planes - Landon's 4th Birthday
My son's request this year was a Planes themed party. Since I went the route of a play place for his party I only had to make a few things: his invitations, birthday banner, and goody bag thank you tags. I originally planned to make a shirt as well but ran out of time. Darn procrastination.
I can say for the invitations I took a design I found on pinterest and copied it completely so I am not going to post mine. There are some very wonderful Planes birthday invitations out there on pinterest and etsy right now!
For the banner I did orange, blue, and white which seem to be Dusty Crophopper "theme" colors in the movie. I traced Dusty and used print and cut on the Silhouette cameo as well as editing the Planes logo to say Landon instead. I was very pleased with the results and it took me no more than an hour to put together the night before the party. I know, I told you, procrastination!
The only print and cut item I did was the thank you tags for the goody bags. I got a 10 pack of bags from Target for about $4-5 and then glued the tag on the front of it. I really liked how these came out and they were super easy to do!
Normally I make cupcake toppers but my son requested a Dusty cake which I knew I couldn't pull off so I had the grocery store make that. I also did snack foods: chips, dips, pretzels, cheese, crackers, and juice boxes. It was a quick, laid back party this year. Maybe next year I'll go bigger!
