The Carnival Soiree

Lisa of Faerie Enchantment is hosting a Carnival Soiree today...

I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to do for the party, but I started thinking about all of the carnivals that take place all over the world, and all of the different cultures that celebrate carnival, and decided that would be my theme for the party.

I ended up making an admission ticket for the top carnivals I would like to attend... I did a little research on each of them, and tried to incorporate a bit of each carnival's theme into the tickets. 

How could I not start off with ~ Carnaval de Paris:

And then there's the carnival in Antigua...the theme is "I Am Carnival".

And the carnival in the Canary Islands...

And... ~ the carnival in Venice:

And New Orleans...Mardi Gras!

And Belgium...

I've had a lot of fun making these tickets...I think I'm going to continue making them.  Every time I think about, or hear about a place I'd like to see, I'm going to make a ticket and attach them together with a book ring...just to keep as a reminder of all the places I want to visit!

Don't forget to visit Lisa's blog today...so many wonderful things in store for you...

She also has a list of links to all of the other participants...

Hope you all have a great day!
