Lego Party

With the release of the Lego Movie a few months ago, my niece decided that she wanted a Lego party this year! I was really stumped on how I was going to pull that off seeing as how I have absolutely NO Cricut cartridges with Lego type people! I got my Gypsy out and started welding images together to try to make a Lego looking character....fail! Haha! Luckily Pinterest came to my rescue! I found AAAAAAALLLLL sorts of ideas there! All of the pictures are inspired from Pinterest except the streamers. They were all my idea! Haha! Let's start with the invitations-the inside was a free downloadable that I stuck down to a pre folded base from Hobby Lobby (Except the blue, I cut and folded them myself). The front cover was made by downloading the Lego font, printing it on cardstock and punching them out with a 1 inch circle punch. I glued two circles together to give them a bit of height and inked the edges to give them a bit more dimension. Next the banner-I found a background image that I liked and used my Gypsy to size it correctly. I got the letters from a free downloadable (before I had downloaded the font for myself), punched holes for the 1/8 sized eyelets and ran some thin ribbon through the eyelets. Each individual banner piece measures 5&1/2 by 5&1/2 so I made them two separate words. The cupcake picks-this was also a free downloadable. You just print, fussy cut, fold and glue to tooth picks! Easy Peesy!! I used the same image for the dangles on the streamers and the little heads on the inside of the invitations. The only difference is I printed them in Landscape format instead of Portrait. This way they printed just a tad bigger. Oh and of course I cut the two pieces apart and mixed them up for the invitations. As you can see in the picture of the cupcakes, I made a sign showing she is 6!Used a giant flat Lego base and various Legos along with two large alligator clips and yellow ribbon. So that was my contribution to the Lego Party! Enjoy the pictures! For links to the particular pins that I used, check out the description box of my youtube videos for these projects. :)
