Baby Shower fun....

On the weekend we had my baby shower and what a great day it was. It has taken me a couple of days to recover but it was so worth it. You may recall the invitations I made for the event, well in keeping with the theme I made the baby shower favors, the prizes, a banner and I am yet to do the thank you cards.... (now you know why I was so exhausted). Don't worry I had help....
My gorgeous Mum did all the food and my BFF organised all the games, we had a great day but it went so fast. Thanks also go to Jo for taking pics for me on the day.
The banner was made using the Pennant Die, the prizes made using the the Milk Carton Die and the favors made using the *NEW* Petal Cone Die (coming in the September Catalogue). I also used the Button Embosslit on all projects (love this cute little die). The prizes contained two Lindt Balls and the favors had a few Favourites Chocolates in them.
I was particulary happy with the cake and how it turned out. I took one of the invites to Oakleigh Cakes (best cake shop eva) and we drew up a sketch of what I wanted etc.. but you never really know how it will look til you see it, you just have to hope that they are on the same wave length as you are I guess......well check it out!!! They matched the colour perfectly. TOTALLY FAB HEY! And you should have tasted it...OMG!!! Thank you to everyone for my lovely presents, our little boy is gonna be the best dressed little bub :)

The cake was AMAZING - in the way it looked and the way it tasted. In fact, everything tasted fantastic. Shame the scales see that too!

Oh ... it was so lovely to see all these gorgeous details from your baby shower. And ... that cake was simply fabulous! I can imagine everything looked beautiful and you had a fun time! I have missed popping by to visit ... but family issues have been a big distraction over the last few weeks. I am looking forward to scrolling back through your recent posts and checking out your fab inspiration ... but won’t have time to comment on each! Thanks for all your special thoughts and prayers over recent days. Hugs xxaxx
