2018 Happy New Year!!! NYE celebration - backdrop & card idea - New Year, New Home

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

We have a balloon pop tradition every year BUT not this year :( We were moving and with family coming visit at the first of the year, I couldn't pull it off. The balloon pop takes lots of planning and my craft room was a disaster. EVERYTHING was stored in the craft room until it finds a place in the  attic or gets unpack. :(

We made the best of it.

We had shrimp cocktails and cheese spread, made cookies, scratched off lottery tickets and even managed a photo booth!!!

Also, because of the move we didn't send out our Christmas cards. First time in 16 years but there was no way to get clothes, take photos, edit, create a card, order, address and mail. Whew! Working full time, moving and unpacking was so crazy.

INSTEAD.....

We ended up making a New Year card AND a new home card in one. This way I could share our new address!

Since EVERY single wall was lined with boxes I used my craft room shelves for our backdrop.

I used the same wrapping paper as last year.

 I found metallic curtains at Wal-Mart and purchased 2 silver and 2 gold to make the backdrop look a little different.

I love how it turned out!!!

Happy New Year!!!
Thank you for stopping by!
