A few months ago, an etsy customer ordered a couple of custom made banners for her son’s birthday. She showed me the darling Circus-themed invitations from Inkspot Workshop and let me run with it. I was so thrilled when Stacy from Inkspot sent me a link to her blog, featuring photos of Leo’s first birthday party. I do not often get to see how customers use my custom birthday banners and I always love seeing photos of how it all looked together!

This was such a fun party! Here is the invite Stacy made that started it all:

And all of the matching stationery:

So fun, right? Here is a glimpse into the party:

I made both a happy birthday banner and a name banner with hand cut elephants. Let me tell you- the elephants were a bit success for me. I am terrible at drawing, so free-handing elephants to match the invites was me taking a risk. I loved how they turned out though.

Other cute party details:

I am currently working on banners for a little girl’s circus themed birthday party and I will be sure to share them when I am done. They are going to be cute!

Thank you Stacy with Inkpot Workshop for the great photos! You can see her full post of the party here.
