Pretty In Pastels: Spring Party Inspiration


Soft pastel colors, the smell of fresh cut grass, sounds of singing birds and white fluffy bunnies remind me of Spring. The filigree, lace and damask patterns mixed in with a sea foam green ruffled cloth add a more traditional feel to this styled dessert table. Each contributor captured the essence of Spring.

Roxane of Fancy Cakes (fondant cupcake toppers), delivers a high quality, specialty product. The amount of detail that goes into her designs makes them one of a kind. The lace and and hand painted floral accents speak for the time and energy she puts into each and every order. 

The talented Brandi of Painted and Sprinkled created bird's nest cake pops. What says Spring more then a bird's nest filled with pastel speckled eggs! They look so real! Absolutely beautiful. Her attention to detail in creating these beauties was spot on. The chocolate swirls mimic branches and the speckled eggs add an element of our favorite Easter candy! 

Katherine of Creating Awesomenessity, designed Easter inspired cookies with a vintage inspiration. The golden polka dot borders and bunnies almost look like a framed picture, to pretty to eat. Bold and beautiful. 

I absolutely love chocolate covered Oreos. It is amazing what Christina of 4 Kids Cakes was able to do on these little cookie surfaces! I sent her the cupcake wrapper paper designs for inspiration. She was able to replicate the designs on each cookie! If you look closely, each chocolate covered Oreo pairs with a design on the wrappers. 4 Kids Cakes also specializes in fondant work. 

Christina of Sweet Design Studio, created beautiful pastel French Meringue cookies along with the detailed filigree bunnies. A very romantic cookie! It amazes me how much time goes into the decoration of each cookie. Simply stunning. 

Kristal of Atutudes created the most beautiful pastel tulle dress. Perfect for an Easter dress! Well, perfect for any Spring photo session or party! I love the satin ribbon and most of all Kristal's signature design of the tutu skirt.

Hair accessories by Special Somethings Boutique and so pretty! My absolute favorite is the pastel floral felt headband. They look like actual flowers! 

Katie of Katie Moffitt Photography captures the most amazing snapshots! Her work is truly art. These styled shoots would not be as beautiful as they are without Katie.

Celebrating Earth Day


Today I decided to celebrate Earth Day with my kids by making the dirt cups with gummy worms! To make a somewhat healthier version. Trader Joe's has really good chocolate cookies you can use that do not have all the harmful ingredients (i.e. artificial coloring, flavors & preservatives). They look identical to Oreos and use natural vanilla bean for flavor. You can substitute real (homemade) whipped cream for Cool Whip. To top if off make some fresh chocolate pudding, using real cocoa & unflavored gelatin!

Since I just went to Trader Joe's and completely forgot the cookies!! UGH. I told my kids we will be making MUD CAKE! Ha ha....Pudding, real whipped cream and gummy worms.
