The theme itself had me excited because it was different from the rest. It also allowed me to really stretch my creativity. I started out by picking colors that the birthday party was going to be decorated with. I then researched the Mrs. Carter Tour, and what I depicted from the tour was that the focus was Royalty, i.e. queens, castles, jewels, thrones, scepters, thrones, etc. I then selected sparkly gold papers and rhinestones to embellish the piece. I hand cut the material used to make it dimensional. I then mounted all the pieces on top of a "chess" like board. To seal the deal, I made a section to hold candy. I really enjoyed making this piece. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Remember: What is an event without your thoughts and ideas?
