Pinkalicious party activity

As you all know I am working on a PINKALICIOUS party. Fun, fun, fun!


Everybody knows Pinkalicious, right? She eats so many pink cupcakes that she wakes up the next morning with pink skin and hair. How about GOLDILICIOUS? Being Pinkalicious is pinkatastic, especially when she's accompanied by her pet unicorn, Goldilicious. Goldie is a roller-skating, kite-flying, high-jumping unicorn who will protect Pinkalicious from the evil wizardry of her little brother, Peter. Together, Pinkalicious and Goldilicious can conquer anything!

The “Build a Dollie” station we had at the tea party was such a hit that I decided to do the same for the next party. Went online and found the cutest PINK unicorn – perfect to be Goldie!

Here is the birth cerrtificate I create for the new friend unicorn...

Come back for the next PINK post!

Marshmallows

I am not crazy about them but I was looking online for ideas and how to make marshmallows at home and found this:

Neapolitan Triple Layer Marshmallows and Toasted Coconut Marshmallows

from Cupcakes in Jars

I couldn’t wait and order 1 dozen of each… I think the Neapolitan marshmallows will be perfect to add to my “pinkalicious ice cream parlor”!

Still, I found a great recipe from joy of baking, a great website with delicious recipes and will try to make the marshmallows anyway!

I will post my version this week!

Pinkalicious - Favors

Yesterday I received all the items for the favors. I found the containers at Michaels. They were perfectly shine PINK! I still need to attach the thank you tags...

The Pinkalicious bags contain:
princess crown (Joann Fabrics)
glow in the dark wand (Michaels)
lipgloss (Target)
sunglasses (Designed2beSweet)
nailpolish (Oriental Trading)
necklaces (Halo Heaven)

Come back tomorrow to see the PINK tutus and WINGS for all the Pinkalicious we are expecting!

Pinkalicious - Bubbles

Today I'm working on the labels for the personalized bubbles for the Pinkalicous birthday party I am organizing. Here are a few pictures:

1) I made the labels on PHOTOSHOP and PHOTOSCAPE

2) I found the bubbles at Oriental Trading - design your own - perfect to custumize with the party theme!

3) Printed the labels on glossy sticker photo paper.

5) Cut (5" x 1,6") and stick... and the final product is here:

NEXT I will cut little circles (PINK, of course) to glue on the top of the lid...

More PINKALICIOUS ideas will come tomorrow...

DAY 2 - cutting the circles... finishing the bubbles.

Pinkalicious - cupcake toppers & tags

I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the package from Sweet Tashie (Australia).

I order cupcake toppers, thank you tags for my favors and 3 centerpieces. They are amazingly gorgeous! The details are perfect.

THANK you so much Jane, I can't wait until my party (I will have to...the party will be in September... yes, I know, may be too soon to start planning but I am having so much fun finding all the PINK accessories…)

Don't forget to check Sweet Tashi shop, she has unique and beautiful cupcake toppers and party accessories.

Here is a few pictures of the toppers and tags - I didn't remove from the plastic bag because of the glitter.

It was a great party! Thank you everybody for coming...

{Real Party} - Tea Party - the dessert table

I love to plan a dessert table. Of course I had to get some (or all of) inspiration at Amy Atlas and HWTM websites. They are the best!


The first thing I had was a left over Manzanita branches I used for the Valentines party I hosted in my house (I will post later this week the valentine décor and favors). Since my tea party theme had a LOT of butterflies I thought it would be cute to use the same centerpiece - so here is the new version:

I always make custom chocolate bars but this time I found at Target little boxes of Raisinets and decided to use them.

I used craft paper to wrap the boxes and a green paper ribbon. Than I had a lot of left over fabric from the table runner and tea hats and decided to cut thin stripes. On the top I hot glued butterflies that I cut using the Martha Stewart butterfly punch.

Here is how everything came together:

For the backdrop (my wall) I hang a BIG butterfly (from pier1) and a few tissue paper pom poms.

I made marshmallows dipped in pink chocolate ,

brigadeiros - a popular, easy-to-make, sweet enjoyed at Brazilian parties - made with sweet condensed milk and chocolate powder (find recipe here).

Mini fruit tart

Mini eclairs

Mini apple tart

All from the local French Bakery

Mini cupcakes from Mishas

Butterfly sugar cookies from Sunshine Bakes
