New wall posters


Do your kids change thier mind about thier favorite colors as much as mind do? Right now my girls love the previously banished PINK. These fun posters from my artwork, are a great way to add a lot of pop to a room, and at 20.00 they don't break the bank. If you have the space a trio of these could really great. Printed on Semi Gloss Vinyl a terrific material that has special adhesive on back which is made to stick on latex wall, windows and more without leaving residue or damage when peeled off-love that! Of course everything I do is custom so look for lots more designs. My customers are great sources of inspiration.

If you would like a custom poster, you can use the rapid fire check out below, just send me an email with your personalization. paintedwithheart@yahoo.com

Value Priced Banners







Recognizing that money is tight for all of us, I have created a line of value priced birthday banners that can be used over and over again. The best part is-you can still get your design customized the way you want it! I create the original artwork and have it reproduced on a quality vinyl banner, right here in New England. The result is beautiful. The banners that I have found in this price range, are made of paper, or flimsy table cloth style plastic. I really believe these are a super value, especially when you can use them over and over for years to come.

Custom Train banner above only 14.00 at my site, www.paintedwithheart.com

I put down my paint brush....













and created a PDF download with my hand painted ice cream cone image. A fun way to quickly "make" a party. All the designs are simple to create using tape, ribbon, and a glue gun doesn't hurt. This is my first, and now that I have the PDF thing down, many more are to come. Because my designs are not graphics but images of my handpainted art the results when printed can be quite charming.

What do you think?

Rock star party fun


















I have had lots of request for rock star themed Party favors and banners. I created these cute maribou trimmed favor bags to go with that theme. They are just sassy enough. To tuck inside, how about a guitar pick personalized pendant. My 8 year old flipped when she saw these, always a good test market. Oriental trading has cardboard cut outs of guitars, which kids can decorate at the party. Would be easy enough to make your own as well out of thin poster board. Find a spot in the yard or garage for a stage, rent or borrow a karokie machine, and you have a rockin party.

Photo Birthday Banner



















Get ready to giggle, this was a special request for a customer and I just love the way it turned out. Of course my 2 kids had to try it out. I think it would be so cute to include the kids photos with the Thank you notes from the party. I think I will make a sea themed or dinosaur one next, love to know your thoughts or suggestions on this one.

Party favors


I am always looking for new party favors ideas. Something different, that us Moms would be proud to give. A while back I was making these type of cones to sell at craft fairs. I attached ribbons to them, filled with potpourri, and they hung from door knobs. Very pretty, but not a great idea to fill with treats since everything would fall out. But the other day, I remembered these awesome cello bags I have. I secured the bag to the bottom of the cone with a few stiches, and yeah, these adorable favors were born. I really like the intials party favors the best. I feel giving quest something that was created just for them, will make them feel special. Making quest feel special is a big deal around our house. So here are these cute favors, love to know what you think of them?
