Oh Boy! cont.

I was honored to throw a baby shower for my dear friend Catey.  She is expecting her second child and this time she is having a BOY!  The theme was green and brown per the mamma to be's request.  We are all so excited to welcome this bundle of joy! Here are some pictures of her cake and banner.

Oh Boy!

A dear friend of mine is having her second child, which so happens to be a boy! I am honored to be able to throw her a baby shower. Here are the invitations I made.

The mommy to be specifically asked for green & brown themed party.

The flap at the bottom has two rivets to make it appear like snaps on a onesie.


"Tangled" in FUN

Little girls all dream of being a princess. And Disney has introduced all of us to a new princess, Rapunzel. My daughter has fallen in love with this movie and so when I was asked to do invitations for a Tangled themed birthday party I was excited!

Minnie Mouse

This custom party was inspired by an adorable mouse, Minnie Mouse!  The birthday girl specifically asked for a Minnie birthday party after returning from her trip from Disneyland.  So the creative wheels began to turn.  First came the adorable invitations.  They were 5 1/2 inches and handcrafted.  We wanted to have a coordinating birthday banner but the facility where the party was held prohibits hanging items in the party room.  Boo!  But we were able to customize a special cake that did coordinate with the theme and invitations.  It HAD to be pink per the request of the birthday girl.  Too cute!

The invitations were approximately 5 1/2 inches.


Custom Cake!  White cake (colored pink), butter cream frosting, and marshmallow fondant) Yum!

Dr. Seuss Party

Turning One is so much fun!  Especially if when it is themed around the beloved Dr. Seuss characters.  This party was for a little girl's first birthday!  The invitations and birthday banner were handcrafted to match the theme of the the party.  The cake was custom made as well, One Fish Two Fish book.  Outside was decorated with balloons and characters from different Dr. Seuss stories.  Turquoise and red colored balloons, candy, table cloths, and even birthday outfits and hair ribbons tied everything together.  A fabulous party to celebrate turning one!


The invitation opened like a book and included the rhyming phrases.

We also made a highchair banner that matched the birthday banner.

Cowgirl Party!

This party was a Cowgirl Themed Party inspired by Jessie and Woody from Toy Story.  The birthday banner and invitations were handmade and coordinated with matching scrapbook paper.  The cake was a carousel cake with Jessie and Woody as decorative keepsakes for the birthday girl.  The party also had wanted posters for each of the birthday girl's friends that attended the party and one for her sister. What a fun theme for a little girl's party!
