Roll up everyone! There’s a wonderful business to introduce you to tonight – Beth from Kids Prints is one of our talented members who loves to design stationery for children’s parties!
One of the most popular themes from Kids Prints is a Circus Carnival theme which I am sharing tonight with some customer images from a party using her stationery.
This is a great example about how choosing a great invite and stationery design, helps coordinate ALL the party elements and make party planing so much easier! The stationery really brings the circus theme to life and gives the party that carnival feel!
As you can see – from the carnival signs to the favour tags to the food labels – the carnival stationery was used throughout to create a fun setup which is coordinated, using the design by Kids Prints
Kids Prints offers a range of other themes also for kids parties , and you can browse their range easily on their ETSY store! We’re proud to have this talented business as part of our network!
I’m excited to share with you a new series of Party Branding inspiration boards on my blog, thanks to the new service of Party Branding provided by Little Sweet Styling!
The first in the series is based around a Circus theme, to coincide with my recent Circus party theme blog post. There is so much inspiration and products in the one board! It makes party planning for this theme so easy. All the sources are listed below:
If you love to do as much of the party yourself but don’t have the time (or resources) to research, then Little Sweet Styling can do all of the hard work for you leaving you to do the fun stuff!
In your chosen theme you will be presented with everything you need to throw the most wonderful party… styling ideas, hire items, where to shop, recipes, craft ideas, games, entertainment, favours… you name it, it will be found and presented to you in your Party branding board!
