HELP!!!!:scared:

I want to create a fabulous 1st birthday for my DS. He loves the Pooh characters, especially Lumpy & Tigger.

With alot of help from JTDOLLY (Thank You!!), I've actually been able to come up with a few ideas...but without alot more help - ideas will be all I have.

I am asking if anyone has time to make a few things for us - I would love to have a candy bar wrapper, a kisses box and a t-shirt design for the Bday Boy!

If you could help with any of these, I would truly appreciate it!!

TIA,
Vickie

I went to a birthday party that was Pooh themed...
I loved the food they had. "Piglets" in a blanket, Tigger tails (Cheetos), Pooh Pizza...

Here is a kiss box...hope it is what you were wanting. I used the saying when my DS turned one with kisses for one of his party favors. Hope you like it!

I DELETED THIS IMAGE TO MAKE ROOM IN MY PHOTOBUCKET BUT YOU CAN FIND IT IN MY 4SHARED ACCOUNT IN THE "CANDY WRAPPER" FILE THEN LOOK IN THE "MISCELLANEOUS WRAPPER" FILE.

I have not personally made these boxes so you will have to play around with the print size. I like to play with sizing in MS Word. First save the picture as a jpeg to where ever you save your pictures. Then open up a word document and go to "insert" at the top of the page and "picture" then "from file". Then find the picture click it and "okay" or "insert" (I can't remember which one it says).

Then click once on the image and go back up to the top of word and click on "format" then "picture" in the drop down menu. Then click on the "size" tab and play with height or width size until you find the right one. If you put a height in click the tab button on your keyboard and it will automatically reformat your width for you. While you are running your trial prints make sure that you are only using your black ink and make sure you have the printer set to "fast draft". You can change those in the printer "properties" after you click on print.

You will definitely want to print this on white cardstock, as you will need the extra weight of the heavier paper to get it to hold its shape with the kiss inside.

Also, if you want send me a pm with your email address...I just found a word document that I put a bunch of fun things to do for first birthday parties.

Here is a candy bar wrapper. I tried to coordinate this to the kiss box by using the same blue in both. To make this it needs to be 5.25 x 5.5 inches to fit a regular milk chocolate hershey candy bar. Follow the instructions above for setting it up in word to print. The best paper to print this on is glossy brochure paper that you can get at office supply stores but regular or cardstock paper will work as well.

Thank you all!

I can not tell you how much I appreciate all of your help. I always wanted to be "one of those moms" with the special touches, but was never able to pull it off until I found this board.

Your time and assistance is invaluable to me!

With sincere thankfulness,
Vickie

P.S. I love the menu ideas ~ I hadn't got that far!
