A Trolls Party invitation has been on my list for quite some time now, but I’ve told you how I don’t work on stuff unless I’m inspired. It seemed like the other designs available were super cute and there was no need to add something unless it was unique. I didn’t figure out something special to make until recently when my sweet little girl asked to draw with me, and we just had a blast making dinosaurs and trolls.

I love Harry Potter and remember when it first captured the imagination of the world 20+ years ago. My aunt was raving about it, and I thought what a strange thing that a children’s book could entertain an adult, and I was curious. Somehow I got a hold of a copy, then didn’t leave my room, eat, sleep, or go to the bathroom until I finished. I couldn’t wait to see what happened to “the boy who lived”! Pretty sure I could summon a Patronus charm using all the happy feelings I have from my Potter-filled childhood. But then there was a break—the series got dark, and my parents I banned it from the house so I didn’t get to rediscover how it ended until many years later when I watched the movies and figured the book must be way better. This design was so fun to brainstorm and wanted to make an illustrated design that was fun, colorful, and unlike anything you could find elsewhere for Harry Potter. The fun is in the details! I wanted to hide a lot more, but there comes a point when you have to feed your kids and do laundry.
We’ve upgraded our flooring to this awesome Luxury Vinyl Plank that’s waterproof, scratch resistant, assembled by snapping together, has a gorgeous variety of dark to light tones, and will hopefully last a while!
We are over the moon for our daughter who just turned 7! She is such an amazing kid, we love her so much! The only thing she asked for was a party where she could invite all her friends, so we had an out of this world celebration for this Space-loving birthday girl. We have such a large family that we haven’t really ever done a birthday with friends. I involved her in the planning, and gave her the option of going to a bounce house in a space themed room or the arcade, in the hopes that I could minimize the work involved since we had a renovation and my sister coming to visit and no time to party plan. Ultimately she asked to do a home party where we could have “science activities”. Thanks to my genius husband, my sweet sister, and the amazing birthday girl herself for making this possible!
