Is there a mom of one of the other girls you could have help out? Just another set of hands--she doesn't need to be crafty, just like 6 yr old girls. (Or even a favorite baby sitter)
I did a party for 8 yr olds, but because it was a holiday weekend only 4 girls came. (the gift bags and projects are in my gallery)
Also, is your craft deficient dh good with the computer? Can he print out digital pics of the girls that you take when they arrive? Also pre-printed lables for the pictures ("Birthday girl and ME" for example).
Also NO YELLOW. The darkest color will be stamped into the middle of it no matter what (though this is very fixable if you know right away). Also, do not have a stamp that needs to be stamped into two different colors.
How about a stamped background? Something where random looks just right. Ribbon and fibers are pretty clean and little girls love them!!
Also, I suggest keeping your projects simple and few. The girls will be in party mode and more than likely squirrelly/giggly. It sounds like fun!! If you and your dd has fun it will be a success.
