PCW Challenge- Anything Goes and use something OLD from your stash

It's time for a great challenge this week at  Paper Crafting World  It's 
Anything Goes AND...Must also use something OLD from your stash. Has to have been hanging around for at least a year.
I am making things for one of my granddaughters 2nd birthday party next week. I have tons and tons of Christmas green and red paper. I bought it several years ago after Christmas in a pack and the quality is not that great so it has been just sitting there. It worked great for the banner though that will be hanging up high. I also had these little tiny green brads I bought several years ago at a Scrapbook Expo. The only thing new was the polka dot paper I bought at Michaels on sale to match the Hungry Caterpillar theme.
If you would like to see my invites check out my post Monday.

I used Accent Esentials and Cricut Decals for the Antennaes.
The circles are cut at 5.5, 4.5, and 3.5. The letters are from Lyrical Letters the chubby font and the eyes and legs are hand cut.
If you scroll down to post before this you can see matching invites and my little hungry caterpillar Micah in his Hungry Caterpillar Halloween costume. :)




Please join us for the challenge and use something that has been sitting in your craft room for awhile.  
You can pretend your shopping at your own house and save some money.  
Create your project and then link up to Paper Crafting World.

BBTB2 Inspiration post- Use a circle

This week we are having an inspiration only post.  We were to  use a circle any Cricut cut circle to make a project. The DT ladies at BBTB2 have some awesome projects for you.  This was perfect timing for me as I was getting ready to make invites for my granddaughters 2nd birthday.  Since the theme is Hungry Caterpillar I knew I would be using circles to create the invites.  I used the circle cut from Accent Essentials at 2.75 so I could get 12 on a page.  The head is the same size circle welded with antennaes from 
Cricut Decals.  The eyes are ovals I cut out and a hole punch nose.  
For the envelope we added leaves made with a MS punch and a hold punched in.  
Each circle has a brad to hold it together and they fold up nicely into the envelope.  
Now as an added bonus here is my sweet little caterpillar my new grandson Micah at three weeks old. 
My daughter crocheted his Halloween costume and it will be perfect for  the birthday party next week too. 
Isn't he just the cutest little caterpillar you've ever seen.  We are so blessed.
