~ Birthday Party ~ A parisian Birthday Brunch

I wanted to show you these pictures for a while. Last month my dear friend Claudia enlisted my help to plan a Parisian Brunch to celebrate her daughters 8th Birthday. 

  Eiffel Tower and  Pink Poodles everywhere. Pink, white and black was the color scheme.

 For kids parties I always use plastic disposable tableware.  It is not only practical but economical.

 I designed the printables to go with the Parisian theme. 

 I made the cupcakes and toppers.

This gorgeous Cake was made by Maylen Palma

Water Bottle Labels

The Party Favors were wrapped in pink tissue paper and clear with white polka dots cello.  Merci! tags from the shop.

This fab Pinata was made by my friend Laura from Pinatas Mexikolor

 Brittany 'the Chipette' came to visit the Birthday Girl! 

She sang and danced with the kids..They loved her!

~ Birthday Party ~ Zebra Print and Hot Pink DIVA SPA Party

I finally get to show you the pictures of the party I styled last month for my friend's daughter birthday.  Ariana, the birthday girl, invited a few friends over her house for a SPA party to celebrate her 11th birthday. 

She wanted the decor to be Hot Pink and Zebra Print.  We used the Zebra Print Party supplies from Birthday Express.

My friend ordered the Cake from a local bakery and I made the cupcakes and cupcake toppers. I used my flourish punch to made the toppers. 



The Super Talented Cathy from The Cake Bomb made the cute and delicious 'Nail Polish' Cake Pops.  

I also designed the Water Bottle labels to go with the theme. 

  The girls got their Facial and Nails done, chat and cheer with champagne {...Just Sprite} in Hot Pink Martini Glasses.

The complete Diva Spa Printable Collectionis now in the Shop.

~ Birthday Party ~ 50's Diner Sock Hop Party Part 1

Happy Friday! I am working on posting all the details of all the parties I did last month.

May was a busy month. First I had my daughter's 3rd Under The Sea Birthday party, then my oldest daughter birthday party, then a few customer parties: Ariana's 11th diva Party, Nicole's 8th Paris inspired party and Emily's 5th Princess party!  

Today I am going to start with my daughter's 8th Birthday Bash!  Again lots of pictures so I had to divide the post in 2 parts...

Julianna's favourite restaurant is Johnny Rockets and when I saw the Sock Hop 50's party supplies, I thought it was the perfect theme for her 8th birthday party and she loved the idea! From there we went all out with the 50's theme.

THE INVITATIONS...

These were the invites I made for her party! It was held at our home or 'Julianna Rockets' Diner for that day...

THE DECOR...

I had so much fun planning all the decor for this party: Jukeboxes, Cadillac, Records, musical note, Poodle skirt and milkshakes everywhere. We decorated with lots of balloons in Black, white, pink and teal. 

I had a hand painted mural for the Sweet table background.

THE SWEET TABLE...

The cupcakes were like little milkshakes, a gum ball for a cherry and I cut some waffer cookies as straws.  The Cake Pops are from Cathy from The Cake Bomb.

I covered the cake with small fondant/gum paste black squares to recreate a 50's diner floor and I tried to make the sugar doll to look like my daughter with the brown hair and the big eyes...I wanted to share with you a little trick about the candles...I got the number 8 and the stars candles but the colors really didn't match the decor, so I painted them with regular craft paint and sprinkled glitter on them right away before the paint dried.

Cathy also made these pretty milkshake pops.

My daughter and her friends!

I hope you enjoy these pictures!

~ Birthday Party ~ Under the Sea Birthday Bash! Part 2

... Continuation from Part 1 {Check it out here}

THE FOOD TABLE...

We served hot dogs, Caesar salad, veal sandwiches, pizza,  octopus {mini hot dog sausages that I boiled but before I did, I cut a small + shape in one end of the sausages, when they boil they flare up and look like little octopus} and I served them with pink sauce {ketchup and mayo together}

We also served fruit and strawberry cream cheese dip {This one is always a favorite...Recipe coming soon} I used my Wilton cupcake stand to serve all the fruits.

I made all the food and water bottle labels. I used this turquoise container for all the cold drinks.  These containers are really nice to display all the cold drinks, this one is plastic and really inexpensive and I found mine at Party Packagers 

By the way these are the new waterproof water labels perfect for the summer and now they are available in my shop.

THE PINATA...

I made the pinata as well, using cardboard and with my scallop punch I cut tissue paper to cover it all.

SPECIAL GUEST...

Ariel came to the party to visit birthday girl.  In the Picture above my 2 daughters and Ariel.  She was fabulous and she is from Fantasy Fables.

~ Birthday Party ~ Under the Sea Birthday Bash! Part 1

 As seen on Hostess With The Mostess!!

I'm back! I know... I said I was going to be away for 2 weeks and have been now more than a month.

I've been planning party after party this whole month... but at least I have lots of party pictures to show you!

Today I will start with my daughter's 3rd Under the Sea birthday Bash!  And this one comes with pictures overload! That is why I will show you some today and some tomorrow...

I loved how everything turned out!

 

THE DECOR...

My daughter loves Ariel so we went with the Under the Sea Theme to celebrate her 3rd birthday. 

  

My mom and I did all the decorations: We made blue tulle table skirts, we had a Hand painted mural we used as the main table background and made a blue balloons wall around the room and twisting balloons to simulate the seaweeds under the sea.

  

THE SWEET TABLE...

I made the cake and cupcakes. I was so happy with how the mermaid fondant cake topper turned out, as it was the first time I have tried to make something like that.  I made the cupcake toppers as well with glittery turquoise card stock and I used my new favorite Flourish punch.  The cupcake-Cake stand is from Wilton.

 These gorgeous Cake pops, were from Cathy Alfano from The Cake Bomb, who recently won the Canada Sweets and baking competition and one of the judges was Buddy from Cake boss.

  

Aren't these adorable?  Crab Cake Pops and Fish bowl Cake pops! Cathy did an excellent work.  Not only the were pretty but delicious too!

  

  

I made some sea shells cookies by filling them with butter cream icing and using a white gum ball as the pearls.

 sea creatures gummy skewers 

THE PARTY FAVORS...

The party favors were some canvas totes filled with filled with headbands, coral bracelets, lip balms and lots of other goodies. I found the white totes at Michaels and I stamped them with the same motive as the invitations and all the paper decor using iron transfer paper and sew the blue trim.  Iron on transfer designs are now available at my etsy shop.
