It has been one BUSY week!!
We just finished having Griffin's 3rd birthday party, and it was a blast. Good times with family, and I had some fun with his cake, and treats.
I also felt the urge to do a bit of scrappy stuff, and here it is.
Started off with the Layout of Griffin, he seriously was the cutest baby ever. Click to see a bit bigger...
Cardstock: Cosmo Cricket/Coredinations
Patterned Paper: Cosmo Cricket (BoyFriend)
Stickers: Cosmo Cricket (Boyfriend)
Buttons: Cosmo Cricket (JoyRide)
Stickers: Cosmo Cricket
Chipboard Alphas: Cosmo Cricket
Brads: We are Memory Keepers
Then I decided to make a quick card up with the scraps I'd made from the layout.
All the same supplies as above, except some sheer ribbon from my stash, and an American Crafts "2". :)
So here is Griffin's cake that I made him.. My brother called it the "Mullet" cake. Business in the front, Party in the back (middle for the cake though... ;)
And then I made some cupcake lollipops. I didn't try them, but the kids gave them a big thumbs up. I'm no Bakerella, these are marshmallows... hehe
I had so much fun doing these things for him, and he was SOOOoooo happy with the cake, and kept telling me "Thank-you Mommy, I love it SO much!!" over and over. Melt. my. heart. :)
Cake idea came from here, except I brushed each layer of cake with strawberry jelly, and icing. Then I covered the entire cake with CoolWhip, because I like it better, and is not as sweet as straight icing.
Have a great one!
