welcome foolish mortals

As a born and raised Southern California girl I have a huge place in my heart for Disneyland and Walt himself.  Talk about a man with an attention for detail.  I find him fascinating to read about.  I'm getting away from myself though.

Disneyland, yes that is what we are talking about.  I love the place.  I am partial to The Haunted Mansion (one of my dream jobs, there's a few, is to be a Haunted Mansion cast member) so when I saw these downloadable (is that a word?) mansion goodies from Disney Family I knew I had to share them.

Throw a Haunted Mansion themed Halloween bash in honor of the Mansion's 40th birthday. That's right, the Mansion is celebrating this year.

How about these changing portrait bookmarks as favors for your guests...

Love this cupcake toppers...
And how about these candy boxes designed with some classic Haunted Mansion graphics...
You can find these projects as well as Madame Leota invites, hitchhiking ghost masks and more here.

i scream for ice cream

This make your own sundae bar from Eat Drink Chic is killing me with happiness.  Is it beyond adorable or what?

Every detail is perfect.  

I want to have this party and I want to do it right now.  I feel a bit like a kid throwing myself on the store floor while shopping with mom screaming, "I want that mommy!" and not just screaming it once but over and over.  I WANT TO HAVE THIS PARTY!
Look at this ice cream container - are you in love with it too?

Not only has Amy put up pictures for us all to take ideas from but she has also written up a how-to on this party AND included free downloads for her labels.  Amy, you are my hero!

This is moving to the top of my list as a must throw party.

yes you can...

have an inaugural party. 

Are you planning on ushering the new President with a little presidential party?  The creative powers that be over at Tangarang have made it a little easier for you to celebrate Obama's big day.

They are offering a free download of cupcake picks and bag toppers - all of them perfect for your Inauguration party.
