mothers day tea party

Hey friends!

Mother's Day is this weekend, and I'm here to remind you: BE NICE TO YOUR MOMMA. Send a card, an email, nice flowers, or whatever to thank her for all the hard work that is being a mom. And if you're lucky enough to live close to your mom, I suggest pulling out the big guns, skipping the traditional Mother's Day brunch, and whipping her up an English style tea party instead!

Admittedly I'm not an expert on English tea, but I've watched enough of The Great British Bake-Off to fake my way around the table. At my tea, there will be some sort of meringue, a Victoria sponge, and a light, refreshing beverage.

So on Crate and Barrel's awesome blog, I've got three recipes for the perfect Mother's Day tea party. Think — mini lemon meringue tartlets, hibiscus Arnold Palmer lemonade, and a strawberry shortcake trifle repping the Victoria sponge.

Who needs high tea at the Ritz when you can make it at home?

And on that note — Happy (early) Mother's Day, mom! Wish I could spend it with you eating these desserts.

MONSTER PARTY feature from Lil Luna

Ive been looking forward to sharing this fun party with you today! Kristyn over at Lil Luna wanted to have a MONSTER BASH for her little monster, Gavin, to celebrate his 2nd birthday. So I went to work designing a fun set of Monster Party printables and an Invitation, complete with a silly cast of characters that I truly just love!

What a fun party table! Little monsters and bright colors everywhere!
Kristyn collaborated with a few party girls in the business to make Gavins party even more special.

Brittany from Edible Details made the ADORABLE monster eyeballs and mouth on that awesome monster cake, and thats not all.... just look at those amazing fondant toppers she created to match the Monster party printables characters in the photos below. She simply stuns me with her little creations. When I first saw the 3D characters, it was like my designs had come to life!

I love the party hats Kristyn made for each of the kids out of scrapbook paper, some ruffled crepe paper and the Monster party printables eyes and mouth cut outs. Super silly!

Each of the guests was given his own little felt monster that Kristyn made from a kit by Freckles Crafts.

Isnt googley eyed frame a fun idea! Kristyn made it in just a few minutes by gluing craft store eyes to a frame she already had on hand.

Crafts and games are a must have at any childrens party. Kristyn made sure the kids were occupied and having fun by making a "Monster Factory" table where the kids made their own monsters out of monster parts and a solid color paper bag. To make it simpler for the kids, she had the monster parts (from the Monster party printables) already cut out and ready for the kids to glue on with glue sticks.

And isnt this idea fun! Kristyn used a new line of Martha Stewart paints from Plaid to create a Monster Bean Bag toss game. So cute! And best of all, it made for a great photo prop, too!

What a great find the monster pinata from Target was!

Super easy and quick and the kids always love a pinata.

And the Pin the Eye on the Monster game that Kristyn shared a TUTORIAL for earlier this month, was a real hit, too! Great job, girl! It looks like the kids had a fabulous time!

Monster Truck Party

What a fun party I have to share with you today! My uber-talented customer, Charlene, has done it again! A MONSTER TRUCK PARTY for her loves all things that GO! Charlene has made a tradition of celebrating each of her boys birthdays with a transportation theme and Ive been lucky enough to work with her on a couple of parties. Be sure to check out our last collaboration, the GO KART PARTY seen in PART 1, PART 2, and PART 3.

Charlene has some fabulous ideas and loves using printables to easily tie in the theme and colors of her parties. She used the BLUE/GREEN MONSTER TRUCK PRINTABLES but for all of you Grave-Digger lovin mamas out there, weve also got a set of PURPLE/GREEN MONSTER TRUCK PRINTABLES.

You will love these photos, and I hope youll grab some great ideas for your own Monster Truck celebrations.
