PacMan Party .. Inside the Goody Bag (NomNom Munch)

Previously I showed you the outside of the goody bags, today is more on what is inside. I saw on Pinterest several food items, and instead of toys that get thrown out I rather put in goody bags. I HUGE shout out to KandyKreations for these amazing PacMan tents. This is one of the BEST sites I've come across for party needs and she has a ton of FREE downloads which makes this mom very happy!

Supplies:

Candy Fruit (I bought at Winco Bulk Section / Amazon also has)

Clear Plastic Bags (Dollar Tree $1 for 50pk)

Card Stock (White)

Printer

Paper Cutter

Stapler

I downloaded PacMan Font from DaFont, this is my go to place for font's. Now her tents were made to make a tent. I copied and put into a word doc to give me 8 per sheet. Since I was putting on the top of bags I didn't need to fold over or extra paper. PLUS I'm cheap and like to maximize my paper to the fullest

Once I had my word Doc (copied her box then pasted into word to make 8). I then added text boxes to add the words Nom Nom Munch. Once set up, I printed on heavy card stock. I filled each mini plastic clear bag with a handful or more of candy. I took my paper cutter to cut the labels down and attached with a staple. Make sure you fold up the back of the bag so the staple holds the bag shut!

PacMan Birthday Party .. Goody Bags (PacMan & Ghost)

Early I showed you the invites for my son's PacMan themed party. Today is the goody bags made. Now you've heard me several times say I hate goody bags, the party is usually crazy expensive and then you're expected to give guest a party gift. This is usually when we go to the dollar store toys and ton's of candy. So my thought is if I'm sending you home with hopefully something you will keep or eat right away so it's not thrown out.

I wasn't sure on who all was attending so I didn't put names on bags. Caden's bag I did add on wording. The other bags just had PacMan eating the power pills.

I did 2 didn't bag types, a PacMan and a Ghost theme.

Supplies:

Black Bag (Hobby Lobby 12pk $3.99)
Yellow Card Stock
Blue Card Stock
Purple Card Stock
Orange Card Stock
Black Card Stock
White Card Stock

Cricut - I used George Cartridge to cut circles, ovals

Googley Eyes
Glue Stick

Ghost Goody Bags:

For the Ghost bags I took oval cut outs (5.5 inches) in purple, orange and Blue. I then took my scissors to make the bottom of the ghost. Instead of cutting out eyes, I used googley eyes because I think they are fun! I cut out small circles using the cricut (1 inch). I used glue sticks we had left over from school and glued it all onto the bag. This really didn't take very long. The longest part is cutting them from the cricut.

PacMan Goody Bag:

For the PacMan bags I took the circle cut outs (3.5 inches) and took my scissors to make the mouth of PacMan. I cut out black circles for the eyes (1 Inch). I cut out small white circles using the cricut (1 inch) for the dots. Again I used the glue sticks we had left over from school and glued it all onto the bag. This really didn't take very long. The longest part is cutting them from the cricut.

I'll share what goes into the bags shortly. I included a sneak peak for you.

PacMan Birthday Party ... Pacman and Ghost Invite

I showed you the plan invites I did for the classroom, here are the invites I made for my parents and me that I keep in the boys memory books. These took a bit to make but they turned out very cool!

I downloaded PacMan Font from DaFont, this is my go to place for font's. I did a practice run using my cricut to see where the circles and the ghost would be when I cut them out. This then showed me where to put my font so when cut the words didn't get cut off.

Supplies:

Yellow Card Stock
Blue Card Stock
Black Card Stock
White Card Stock

Word - to type up the wording

Cricut - I used George Cartridge to cut 3.5" circles, ovals

Googley Eyes
Glue Stick

Type up in word the invitation wording you want. Using your cricut to cut out a circles. I used a 3 inch for the yellow and 3.5inch for the black and a 1 inch for the eye. For the black strip I just used my cutting board to cut those out. For the Ghost I had to create my own design. I used a 5 inch Oval in blue and a 5.5 inch Oval in black. For the small circles I used a 2 and a 2.5 inch circles. 

Take a pair of scissors to cut out the PacMan mouth and the Ghost bottom part. I used a glue stick to put this together. remember to put the strip in between the PacMan circles and the Ghost BEFORE you glue the backs on (the black). I forgot to do this and each time had to peel it back and stick it in which is hard once glued. I added a black dot for the PacMan eye and a googley eyes for the ghost. You can always cut out white and black circles but I loved this look better. Make sure so it can bend so the PacMan looks like it is eating the ghost. Play with the dots in the center before gluing down to make sure it closes right. 

Very time consuming, but a very cool invite.
