A Halloween Inspired Birthday Party

Happy Halloween!

I thought it was most appropriate to share Goosie Girl's 13th birthday party today 

since it was halloween inspired...

Of course she wanted a food table filled with yummies...

(I just love this spider tablecloth that I got from Michaels)

She invited 5 friends over for a sleep over...

They were so impressed with the little details of the table (which made me swoon)...

I put their dinner 

(consisting of  a Chick fil'a sandwich, fries, apple slices, condiments & a festive napkin)

in a gable box and tied it up oh so pretty...

I used simple black cups and attached a name card and a stripey straw for their drinks...

OMG they said...usually at a party we just eat greasy pizza on paper plates and write our names with a sharpy on our cups...not here you don't!

They had popcorn for movie time (or just to munch on)...

In lieu of the birthday cake, we opted for layered cupcakes in clear glasses...

the spoons were black striped and I added some pink glitter for glitz...

And of course we had to have some of Sweet Goosie Girl's cookies...

(these were done using the edible imaging)

Just simple, pretty & delicious...

I wish I would have taken a picture of when I woke up Saturday morning...

there wasn't much left...

Goosie Girl and her friends had a great time...

**I ordered the gable boxes, popcorn boxes, wooden spoons & black/white lollipops

from Kara's Party Ideas...I must say that I was not impressed with the quality of the gable boxes/popcorn boxes and would not order from them again. 

Spider tablecloth, ribbon, flowers, stickers & striped straws all came from Michaels...

Hanging spiders came from Party City

Pumpkin Cookies

Since Halloween is tomorrow...

I thought I'd share these little festives that I made last week

for a little boy's birthday...

Hmmm...I just had a thought...next year I might have to do a preppy pink version too...

Who says pumpkins just have to be orange?

Here's to a Tuesday of thinking outside the box!

Logo Cookies

Is it Monday already?

I was SO enjoying the weekend...no cookies, relaxing and spending time with the family!

Isn't it hard to believe that Halloween is this week?

That means the holidays are about to be in full swing...
I'm not sure that I'm ready for that...

I designed these cookies (last week) for a prep school's centennial celebration...

She provided the logo she wanted to use...
And I (using my edible imaging) was able to print them, adhere them to the cookie and package them up pretty...

What a special & delicious treat for the guests...
Here's to a Monday filled with meaning!

Pop over to Sweet Goosie Girl's Facebook page for an

"I'm SO grateful giveaway"...

Single Monogram & Anchor Cookies

These little preppy pretties were made for a baby blessing...

I'm absolutely loving the navy & orange color scheme...

and I think that orange is my new favorite accent color...

(I've been using it quite a lot)...

Here's to a Tuesday filled with color!

Circle Monogram Cookies

It was such an honor when Razzberry Fizz

(one of the preppy monogram queens)

wanted to use this invite of mine and add matching cookies...

I didn't have to think twice...yes please!

I think pink & orange is my new favorite color combo...

It's just so fresh and festive...

especially with a monogram...

Don't you think?

Here's to a Thursday filled with preppy goodness!

Bow Tie Cookies

I designed some bow tie cookies

(yes...using my edible imaging)

for a baby shower...

All I did was create what I wanted them to look like, basing my colors off the invitation..

(and using my favorite digital papers)

Printed each out and attached them to my cookies with royal icing...

I love how you can mix & match patterns...

I think a monogram would look sweet in the middle of the bow tie too...

and there you have it...

Pretty & delicious custom cookies...

Here's to a Wednesday filled with mixing & matching!
