Birthday Cake Pops

Here they are again!!! 2 weeks later and I made another batch, however these have a purpose! I made them for Jordan's mom's birthday! This batch is vanilla cake with colored sprinkles. I dipped half in white chocolate and the other in milk chocolate. I did some with sprinkles and some drizzled with the opposite colored chocolate. You can really make these with any kind of cake you would like and you can dip them in any kind of chocolate and any color of candy coating too!!! They are so yummy, and people are still asking me to make them again for them!!!! I can't wait to make my next batch! What will they be???

Cake Pops!!!

I saw these on a website and thought they were just too cool and had to make them! I didn't make them for any purpose except that I just wanted to try them! They aren't the best looking things, however it was only my first attempt but I'm still pretty happy with how they turned out! I used chocolate cake for this batch, covered half with milk chocolate and the other with purple candy coating, and sprinkles! They are very yummy and didn't last very long people could never just eat one. Hopefully with practice I can make them look better and better each time!

Red 50 Sucks!!

Here is another suckers bouquet I made for another woman at work. It costed about $60 to make. Her friend was turning 50 and she wanted something different to give to her, as well as share at her party! She wanted all red because that was her friends favorite color. It can be a little to find a large amount of suckers in one color, that are also different. But once we found them it all came together nicely! I was told it was a huge hit at the party!

Easter Cards!

A little delayed I know!! Its been a crazy few months! Here are some cards I made for Easter this year!!

Will You Be My Bridesmaid?

I couldn't just ask my bridesmaids to be a bridesmaid, so I had to think of a creative way that is different. I used our wedding colors to create these little boxes with my "important" question inside! I put the little box inside the purses I had made as well to match. Each Bridesmaid got a little purse with the box inside. The purses had the initial of the bridesmaids on the outside!

Its a Boy Diaper Cake

Here is a diaper cake I had made for a women at work to take to her friends baby shower. It included teething rings, a bottle of baby lotion, baby wash and baby massage gel as well as approx. 100 diapers! A diaper cake can cost anywhere between $50-$100 depending on the amount of diapers used and the supplies/decorations you want added to it.

56 Sucks!!!!

My boss just turned 56. She does so much for us by planning get togethers and parties and stuff so I decided I wanted to do somethng different for her! I had seen this birthday bouquet before and thought how cool it would be if I could make this for someone. Well I think 56 turned out really well!!!!

I bought a vase from the dollar store and some stones to help weigh it down so it didnt become top heavy and fall over. I bought 56 suckers from a bunch of different stores and just built it the way I liked! It was alot of fun to make. Everyone thought it was really cool at work, especially because my boss ended up sharing the suckers with everyone!!!

Wedding Shower Cake

Here is my first EVER wedding towel cake!!! I think it turned out really well!!! I was very happy with the way it came out, at first I thought it wasn't going to look good, that it was going to look messy but it looks great!!!

I just used 2 body towels, 2 hand towel and 2 face towels. Take the 2 body towels you roll them into each other and pin them, then do the same for the hand and face towels and just stack

them one on top of the other. I used my Cricut to cut out the lettering and attached them to the ribbon. I embossed the bigger letters on the top with a purple embossing powered. The flowers are just attached with pins as well!!! It was VERY easy to make!!!!

Where Has The Time Gone??

Well I haven't been on my blog in AGES!!!! In fact I really haven't had time to do much scrapbooking or anything creative in a long time. I have gone back to school so that keeps me pretty busy. My sister should be having her baby any day now, I'm so excited about that. I'm also really excited that its almost time to start making Christmas cards again. I'm thinking about the possibility of maybe selling them this year, I'm just not sure how that will work and if it will even be worth it, such as how many people will buy the cards versus how much I'll spend making them. So that's what I've been thinking about these days. I'm hoping to finish all my school work rather soon today, clean up my room then be able to organize my scrapbook stuff and get crafting.

Well that's it for now, hopefully Ill be able to post something crafty soon, *fingers crossed*

Baby Shower!!!

So yesterday we had the surprise baby shower for my sister who is down visiting for a week and a half from Thunder Bay!!! It was awesome. She had no idea and was completely surprised. Ofcourse when she walked in and realized what was happening she started crying haha. It was a great time. Here are a few of the crafts we made for the shower.

These were the cards I had made for the gifts. The first one was the "What will it BEE??" Card. She doesnt want to know what she is having so I figured this card would work really well. I used bees on the outside and embossed the wings of the smaller bees to add some sparkle. On the inside I stamped the "What will it bee" with my clear stamps, and made a border around the inside of the card with "BZZZZZ........" just to add some more colour. I used chip borad letters and embossed them in the black and yellow.

The second card I made very gender equal haha. I divided the card in half so that I was able to make it both boy and girl. I used my cricut to cut out the shapes and again embossed it to add more texture and color and sparkle.

I made party favors and attached a label that was stamped by a "Hugs and Kisses" stamp. Under the stamp we write the saying "From baby Fountain" So the whole party favor said "Hugs and Kisses from Baby Fountain". We also made a "Bucket of Love". We cut out a whole bunch of baby shapes so that people could write loving messages or some advice for the parents to be.

I made a huge calender for the month of September (which was when the baby is due) so that people could make a guess of when the baby was to be born. I cut out little babies from my cricut and also little blue and pink outfits. People were to take a baby, glue the color of the outfit to the baby in which they thought the sex of the baby would be and then stick it to the day they think the baby will be born on. We also made a huge diaper cake made out of actual baby diapers. We stuck a bunch of baby products all around the cake as well.

Over all, this baby shower was a huge hit!!!!
