Party Recap

My friend Kristina asked me to design a simple yet stylish birthday party for her soon to be 7 year old daughter Audrey. Since I have three sons and style a lot of boy parties, I thought it would be a refreshing (and fun) challenge to take on!

I wanted to keep the party sweet and girly, without being too grown up. I settled on a butterfly theme with a modern twist.
The main elements included the bold statement of turqoise chevron patterns, purple flowers, and crisp white butterfly silhouettes. I added in some lace and tulle details to soften the mood a bit.

The girls had fun decorating paper butterflies as a craft, eating purple frosted cupcakes and sipping turqoise fruit juice from their glass jars!

    Hi Evonne! The favor bags + stickers can be purchased in my shop. The butterfly nail polish, file and lip gloss was found at JoAnn fabrics, about a year ago. Not sure if they still carry it, but you could check it out!
