who graduated from High School last week. 

This file was from the Silhouette Store.

PDE Linky Party 04-22-16

Hello and Happy Friday!

It is time for a new PDE Linky Party and

as always the Theme is ANYTHING GOES!!

Today I am sharing some tags and a banner

I made for a mermaid themed party.

My son's girlfriend asked me to make

her some tags for the goody bags for

her niece's 1st birthday party.

The mermaid file is from the Silhouette Store.

I used Peachy Keen's Sweet and Innocent Faces

I used several different Embossing Folders.

I made 50 of these Tags!!

I also made a banner for her

My son's girlfriend also made the cake topper, cake pops

and several other sweet treats for the party!!
