The Princess turns 6 on Friday. So we are in the throws of creating a Fancy Nancy birthday party. Normally, being the paper-obsessed person that I am...my favorite part of throwing a party is creating the invitations. SERIOUSLY. One of these days I'll share a few of my creations... But, while browsing in Target, I ran across these darling invitations by Anna Griffin. (The girls can wear them...)
And I did a first a for me. I purchased invitations. But seriously, folks, these little crowns are perfect for Fancy Nancy invites...I admit, I did add a little glitter glue to look like gems, but other than that...perfection.
So, just for fun, I looked up the Anna Griffin website. If you love paper...or fabric...or just eye candy...pop over. And her blog is wonderful too.
Now go forth, inspire, and be inspired.
AND DON'T FORGET TO ENTER THE DRAWING (ON MONDAY'S POST ONLY) FOR THE LOVELY CROWN NECKLACE. DRAWING ENDS WEDNESDAY!

Oh, I looooove scrapbook paper, even though I no longer scrapbook! I use it for making cards and other decor around the house. I can go a bit crazy when it's on sale. Thank you for sharing Anna Griffin's blog!
The Fancy Nancy party is going to be adorable, by the way.

It worked,...again,...I am inspired!! The Fancy Nancy is going to be adorable.
Anna Griffin....ooh la la!! :)
Wendy,
How great to find another place to find things for my cardmaking! I'll have to check this website out! Thanks!
Many fun wishes to all of you on the big day!

Oh my! Scrapbook paper...errr...
I just spent most of yesterday cleaning up my scrapbooking room- paper was EVERYWHERE! ack!
I love scrapbook paper too. Always have! I especially love invitiations and thank you cards. Those crown invites will be perfect for a Fancy Nancy party!
I would love to see some of your past invitations!
I love paper too, all kinds. I love that wall of paper on this post...maybe one day.
My name is Lisa and I'm a paper junkie.
I think I'm responsible for the death of many trees, as well as reviving the scrapbook paper industry in south Georgia.
And I don't even scrapbook.
I am a paperaholic too. I frequently browse the scrapbook paper aisles, and have quite a collection, even though I don't scrapbook! I know I'll use it for something, though...
We used Anna Griffin invitations for my daughters wedding. They were beautiful and everyone commented on them thinking we'd had them custom designed.
I too have a love affair with paper and unfortunately, I scrapbook. Very slowly because I'm too much of a perfectionist. lol
Oh, I am a pretty paper fool, too! I want it just to have it near me, just to look at. I don't always do things with it...I just want it.....sigh.

Ooooh! Love Fancy Nancy! I wish she had hit the scene 6-7 years ago! My baby girl is too big for that now. But Mama's not!
I was in love with Anna Griffin's wedding invitations when I was planning my wedding. My mom and I decided to make invites ourselves though! :)
Oh I LOVE her! Thanks for sharing her photos, I would not have thought to check out her website... PRETTY!

What adorable invitations and LOVE your pictures from her blog. I'm going to go check it out.
Last weekend i ran in (quickly) to the Paper Source while hubby and the kids were in the car! Mistake I can't do the Paper Source quickly! I got the cell phone call...we are waiting! :) I love your idea to have a open cabinet for paper! now that would be pure fun!
PS... my no. 6 pillow arrived! LOVE IT featuring it on my blog this week! Need to take pictures or it would have been up today!! I was so excited to see the box by my door! thanK yoU!!!

Sigh.... Wouldn't organizing furniture be great. I mean something that looks like it was Made to House what you're organizing. How come I always have to "invent" a piece of furniture. Hubby says that true designers can create on a tight budget... it forces their creativity. Sometimes I'd love to try the "other side" - just buy something because it looks good.... Great post girl.
Hey, it's on, announced and you're linked up. I already included you on the list of Rock Star bloggers coming to the event!
Have a super Day!

I love paper too! Those pics are very inspiring. Cute invitations!
Thanks for the link to AG's blog. I didn't know she has one! Love the way you embellished the invite. :)
Love the way you added just a hint of glitter. The crowns are TOTALLY adorable! I would LOVE to have that in my craft room/studio too! I call mine the Inspiration Studio! Ha!
Will be dropping by often. Love your Inspire-me-Tuesday posts.
I love paper too...I could go crazy buying it...but in reality I don't use it very much!
