Marcel The Shell - As cool As The Birthday Girl!

This was probably one of my favourite requests! Theresa was celebrating her birthday and she knew exactly what she wanted on her own cake! I love a girl who can make a decision!
Marcel the Shell Was the theme for this fun little cake!  
Thanks Theresa for this order! It was fun to create and I hope you enjoyed!

And for those who DON'T know who this cute little guy is.

Kids Carnival - Happy Birthday To My Wonderful Children

Well, there are several reasons on why its taken a bit of time to get this blog post up.  One being time, but for the less obvious wanting to put enough pictures in to make it officially worthy of the time and effort put into the event.

What can I say, I am blessed with 2 amazing kids.  Ashton; who turned 1 on August 25th and Addison who celebrated her 3rd birthday on September 22nd.  With wanting to throw Ashton a "Big" first birthday party, I naturally blended the 2 events into one so I could go "All Out".  Picking a gender neutral theme felt tough at first.  Thanks to PINTREST, once we had the Carnival Theme chosen they made my job a lot easier.  From games, prizes,  popcorn machines, signage and so much more the day came together.  I am also lucky to have a amazingly handy husband who can help bring my visions to life.  I was thoroughly happy excited on how the details turned out for the day.

Even more then the details the food and other things.  We are overly blessed with the support and love we received from the Family and Friends who came.  Our kids are both blessed to have so many other awesome children as friends and family in there lives.  They light up on any occasion when they get to "socialize" and build relationships of any size.  This day was no exception.  So a huge thank you to all who made it out, or even those who couldn't for your love and support though many years, especially in these last 3.

Well time to post some pics.  They tell the story better then I anyways! I made a series of collages to hopefully let you have a good idea of the day in a quicken format then the 700 pictures that were taken that day (Oh Dear).  A big thank you to my Sister Lauren who took a ton of pictures to help us remember the day.  A second big thank you to the Talented Samantha Aantjes from Shine 1:21 Photography to capture some of those special moments.  All of your pictures are amazing and these collages are a compilation of them all!

 The Cake Of Course, Its What We Do After All...

Something A little Personal - Engagement Cupcakes

These cupcake were a lot of fun! Rhonda and Mike are getting hitched and to celebrate there engagement they were throwing a party!

I think we captured that quite well, while keeping to the colours and feel of the night! Congratulations Rhonda and Mike!

Ruffle Cakes

I love when there is a new "trend" in cake styles and we get to put them to use! Two very awesome party planners connected with me for cakes, both requesting the ruffle finish.  I was in my glory to deliver the cake portion for there sweets tables!  

The first cake below was for a baby shower to celebrate the arrival of a little boy.  The over all details of the shower were amazing, the sweets table was a real highlight.  I LOVE the banner they put in the cake to give it a nice focal point! Awesome job Robyn.

The second cake was for a sweet girls first birthday.  Sweet was the focus of the event, and the cake table was beautifully designed!  Again, loving the perfectly placed banner on the cake.  It went perfect with the heart accents we placed down the sides of this cake.  The colours were eye catching as well! 
Emily, you never cease to amaze me with your eye for design!
