A Simple, But Personal Party Favor

Hi Everyone!

This weekend has been all about my child's birthday, so I had to put together some party favors.  In the pictures below, I am going to show you how I took some store bought items and, using craft supplies I already had, personalized them.

The theme was soccer.  I happened upon some great soccer items on the dollar aisle at Michael's.  I LOVE these vinyl bags!

Then I used my Sesame Street Font Cricut Cartridge (using the Sunny Day option) and purple vinyl (previously purchased at www.signwarehouse.com) and cut out the guests' names at 1.75" for the shorter names and 1.25" for the longer names and applied them to the bags.

Next, I purchased some small black clipboards at Office Depot.

Again I cut out the guests' names (same font) with purple vinyl and applied them to the front of the clipboards.  I cut out the guests' initials at 3 inches and applied those to the back of the clipboards.

I added some additional favors purchased from Michael's and Party Galaxy to purple tissue paper and put them in the bags.

And, lastly, instead of a bow or ribbon I added a cute soccer ball clip purchased at Party Galaxy as an accent to the bag.  Ta Da!  Quick and easy, yet personalized favors.  The guests especially liked the clipboards!
