The countdown is on to New Year’s Day, but there is still time to create DIY party favors and decor for your New Year’s Eve party. If you are like me, your budget (and time!) is stretched to it’s limits after the holiday season, so you are probably looking for high-impact, budget-friendly decor ideas that don’t take a lot of time out of your day to complete. As a paper crafter, you probably have most of the supplies on hand to create these fun party supplies, and you can even upcycle some of your holiday decor, which is a win in my book!

A party just isn’t a party without confetti. Create confetti filled favors, sprinkle it on your tables for a festive touch, or toss it in the air as the clock strikes midnight. The best part is that confetti is basically free because any paper can be used and the only investment is your time. Also, since it is so easy to make, why not enlist the kids to help create it while you work on the rest of your party preparations?

I started scrapping in 2006 and was quickly addicted!I was an avid scrapper until late summer of 2010 when we started our adoption journey, at that point I was overwhelmed with paperwork (and emotions!) and I had to put something on the back burner in my life but I knew I would eventually come back to it.
We welcomed our daughter home from China in December of 2011 and a few months later I found my groove again and pulled out all of those supplies that had been tucked away.
I started out scrapping again doing traditional layouts, but at the beginning of this year I jumped into Project Life and I love it!
When I’m not scrapping I am usually spending time with our daughters which means library time, going on walks, thrifting (they love it as much as I do!) or watching Kung Fu Panda for the millionth time.I also have an Etsy shop Panda Eight Designs where I sell scrapbooking flair that I design.
