Welcome to the Silly Nilly Studio, a custom party studio. Come in, make yourself at home, grab a glass of iced tea or a mimosa (or since we are in Texas now, a Margarita will be just fine), view our projects, and post comments. If you stay long enough, we may even consider you to be like family. Enjoy!

What Does The Fox Say? Merry Christmas FREE 5x7 PDF

 

I interrupt your regularly scheduled stressful holiday shopping, planning, decorating, and baking to bring you this fun and free 5x7 PDF sign. *WARNING: the song will get stuck in your head for hours. ;)

Print this and frame it in a 5x7 frame. It makes a super cute host/hostess gift, co-worker gift, or a fun stocking stuffer!

FUN CHALLENGE: Oooh, a fun little thing to do around the house: Watch this video and learn the sounds to the fox parts. You will look silly AND sound even more silly but it is worth it to relieve some holiday stress. Have fun! Go to my facebook page and post which fox saying you like to sing...I'll randomly pick a winner to receive a little goody from the shop or something that isn't even in the shop yet like personalized notecards!

* I will pick a winner on Thursday, December 12 so your gift can be delivered by Christmas!

I really want to know how they kept a straight face while singing the part about the fish, "the fish goes blub?" It cracks me up every time.

So, which is your favorite fox saying to sing...WHAT IS YOUR SOUND?

1. RING-DING-DING-DINGERINGEDING

2. WA-PA-PA-PA-PA-PA-POW

3. HATEE-HATEE-HATEE-HO

4. JOFF-TCHOFF-TCHOFFO-TCHOFFO-TCHOFF

5. JACHA-CHACHA-CHACHA-CHOW

6. FRAKA-KAKA-KAKA-KAKA-KOW

7. A-HEE-AHEE-HA-HEE

8. A-OO-OO-OO-OOO

Ok, now back to designing Christmas cards ;) Have fun and Merry Christmas!

Have a Silly Nilly Day,

Our Thanksgiving Tradition...delivering Pies to our neighbors!

Delivering Pies...an activity that turned tradition. Last year, we deliverd four pies to our family and friends. The girls choose their favorite pie recipe, baked the pies, cut out the banner, made a delivery list, and delivered the pies. They loved the activity so much that we decided to do it each year.

I wanted to find an activity where the girls were giving of themselves and received nothing in return. We also wanted to say "thanks" to our family and friends to let them know how much we appreciate them in our lives every day. I was super excited that they wanted to continue the tradition this year.

The Pie Banner: FREE Thanksgiving downloadable PDF that has all the Thanksgiving printables available. 

Many, many thanks to you all. If you add this to your list of traditions, post a picture on our Facebook page so we can see your little lovies delivering pies.

Thanks

How to send a Christmas Card from The Silly Nilly Studio

Sending a Christmas Card is super easy and the best part, if I don't say so myself, you are working with a professional graphic designer to create your special holiday cards. 1. Choose your design at my shop 2. Choose your add-ons (like professional printing, text on the back, photo modifications, and more). 3. Check out and send me the personal information with the photo(s). It's that easy.

Don't see a design the fits your family style? Let's create a custom design. Your card will be a one-of-a-kind and the cost is only $29.99 plus your add-ons to work directly with the designer.

Choose Professional Printing! My prices are lower than Minted.com and there are no additional prices for adding a back design or to upgrade paper. My paper is already the highest quality paper! AND envelopes are included in my price. Yeah!

Print your templates yourself. You can print your template as a photo at a photo lab (one-sided), envelopes not included; at an office supply store as a PDF, 2 per page, you trim yourself, can print double-sided, envelopes are not included; or at an online printing company, double-sided, envelopes are sometimes included.

So many options for printing and for making your card a one-of-a-kind design. Why would you not send your card from The Silly Nilly Studio?

Merry Christmas,

Halloween Candy Bag Toppers

My kids have so much fun making these candy bag toppers and coming up with creative ideas to fill each bag. I used clear flap bags that you can get at any craft supply store. I attached them to the bags with double sided tape but you can use staples as well.

HOW TO CREATE YOUR TOPPERS:

1. Purchase the entire set of 5 designs in one listing at the ETSY store.
2. Print each PDF on bright white card stock paper.
3. Fill each bag with treats of your choice.
4. I use double-sided tape to attach the toppers to the bag but you can staple them as well.

Here are some of the ideas to use in each bag. I'd love to hear some other ideas to fill each bag!
Witches Warts—Chocolate Chips, Raisins, Chocolate Covered Raisins, M&M's
Scarecrow Scabs—Cereal Flakes, Rice Cakes
Ghost Droppings—Marshmallows, Yogurt Covered Raisins
Vampire Blood—Hot Tamales, Red Gummy Candy, Red M&M's, Dried Cranberries
Jack-O-Lantern Teeth—Candy Corn, Carrots, Cheetos, Pumpkin Seeds

We used these bags to put in our "Boo your neighbor" treat buckets. We love boo'ing. Here is a link to a free printable so you can boo too!

Happy Halloween!
