My Pinkalicious Blog Hop Friday (April)

Hello Everyone!!!

It is that time of the month again!  LOL!  NO, not that time!!  Hee hee!  It is time for our monthly Pinkalicious Blog Hop!  This is held the 2nd Friday of every month.  A great time to hop around 20+ blogs and then join us in the monthly challenge!!

Are you ready??

Challenge:  ANYTHING BIRTHDAY!!

Do you all know why we picked this challenge for the Hop?  Well, my daughter's 13th birthday party is tonight!  Right now, as I sit here typing on my computer, there are 13 little pre-teens/teens screaming and running around my house!  I love it, though.  I feel like I am one of them tonight.  :)  We are going to play a few games and then have some of the yummy cupcakes that I made from scratch all by myself!!  I am feeling like such a pro!  

After you are done on my blog go down to the next person on the list and from there you will hope around everyone's blog until you come back HERE to join us in the challenge a post your project on the link below.  Super fun!!

I made this banner using the Cricut Lite Cupcakes Cartridge.






Of course I had to make goodie bags!!  The paper is from DCWV Baby Girl Stack (which I love!!).  The cupcake is from Sweet Treats, and the stamp is from Everyday Life stamp set from My Pink Stamper (that's ME!)



Didn't these cupcakes turn out scrumptious??  I cannot believe I made them!!!   I hope they taste as good as they look!

What a great hop, so many wonderful projects. I am so glad you started doing the monthly hop it is such fun. Thank you Robyn for all the inspiration from you and your fantastic design team.

jamme said...

How big did you cut the banner cupcake images? Way cute. The cupcakes look very yummy. What a disappointment when they tasted funny. Oh well, live and learn. Maybe I should get the recipe so I won't want to eat sweets and maybe shed a few wanted pounds.

Jennifer~My Creative Crafting said...

Robyn:
It was my mother-in-law's birthday and we decorated everything in white and orange. I cut out the letters on my cricut machine; they are white with the white shadow letters. Then I hung them up with orange ribbon. It might not look as glorious in the picture, but it turned out great.
