HOT PINK & ZEBRA BIRTHDAY PARTY

1st new post!

Check it out...

I think I saw these on Pinterest! I just made dark chocolate fudge cupcakes and used a hot pink frosting with sprinkles (from Target) and added the Hersheys Hugs on top! Cute right? I got the zebra cake stand from Party City! 

This was the invite design I bought on Etsy! And as you can see, it came with a free banner and a thank you card!

I got the streamers, balloons, napkins, plates, cutlery, pink bowls, cups, tablecloth, and cake stand all from Party City! For the water bottles, I bought zebra duct tape and wrapped a small strip around each one.

In the goodie bags I think I put different pink and black candies! I bought the actual zebra bags from Party City as well.

I got the adorable and delicious cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes! They even customized the top for me to match the color theme.

In the bowls are Hersheys Hugs and Kisses, mini Oreos, and black, white and pink Sixlets. Then I used extra zebra cupcake holders/tins as little snack cups.

There's the Birthday Girl, enjoying her cake!

I think she liked it, don't you? 

The Bow I got on Etsy as well as the customized Outfit!

I thought everything went well and overall I don't think I ended up spending that much to put it all together.

Partying it up with:

Sorry it's been so long since we've posted anything new.
I'm calling the gap between posts the 'baby effect'.

We had a few more kids and got super busy! I'm sure all you mothers out there know what I'm talking about, right?

So here's the scoop, Erin is going to be branching off and starting a new blog and I will be running this one! I'll share her blog info once she's up and running! I'm so happy for her.

I'm super excited to get back into this too...so stay tuned for some awesome posts, reviews, giveaways and more coming your way!

If you have any questions, or if something doesn't look right on the blog, please let me know.

Thanks so much for following!

BRAVE Birthday Party

I recently threw my daughter, Scotlin, a Brave Birthday Party for her 3rd birthday!

Erin actually made the invites! She did a great job! They were perfect!

I decided not to make the cake myself, and I probably should have! I didn't really like how this one turned out, but the characters on top made it look better!

I made the water bottle liners from a template I found somewhere.

We got some pictures taken of her in this Merida costume especially for her birthday...so I had them printed on cardstock and made her a poster to display at the party.

I think she looks amazing with that red curly hair! hehe

This is how she really looks, with a wig...

I made a little banner with her name on it.

I also made little gift bags. Can't get any cheaper than paper bags. I filled them with various things like: Brave Fruit Snacks and Miniature Candy Bars and Goldfish Snacks.

I also made these up and put them in the bags as well...

This was the spread... 

Shortbread cookies and Strawberry filled cookies.

Vanilla Bear Paw Cupcakes with Jr. Mints and Fudge covered OREOS.

Fresh Strawberries with Homemade Devonshire Cream. 

Scones and a Blueberry Walnut Salad with Feta and Cucumbers.

This was the best...Smoked Salmon Dip! Here's the RECIPE!

Scotlin had such a fun party! Can't wait to throw her another one next year.

Let me know if you have any questions about anything!
