Farewell My Little Pony Friend!

Welcome to the Stampin' Addicts Retiring Set Blog Hop! I hope you enjoyed visiting Heidi's Running with Scissors Stamper and looking at the great ideas she had for the Nursery Times Stamp Set. I can't wait to make that amazing carousel!
I have created a Pony Party at my house! This set has been a very loved and much used favorite with the 8 and 4 year olds who often visit - next week I might just have to blog about the set and show you a picture of what a well loved stamp set looks like after two or three years of frequent use! But you're probably wanting to see the pictures of the most amazing party happening here, so without going on and on here is the whole ensemble:
I got this party started by making these fabulous treat boxes, they took about a day to complete the whole set, but aren't they darling?Then I moved on to a coordinating card:For now, the inside is empty, but they could be invitations or thank you cards. The plan is to donate this party set to an upcoming fundraiser, so maybe I'll include both and the lucky recipient can choose! And no birthday party is complete without a little cake right? These little buntings are so much fun to make - and I just had to sneak in another favorite retiree - the Broadsheet Alphabet - to spell out Happy, because let's face it, who wouldn't be happy with a Pony Party like this? And my final project included in this little party is my table runner, which could also double as a banner or backdrop to this party! These are all the pictures I'm allowed to share with you today. I hope you enjoyed my party. Now - on to your next stop on this blog hop which is Carmen's Stamping Addiction. This weekend Carmen is doing a little camping Under The Stars, and who doesn't like S'Mores?!
