My awesome friend used her Cameo to cut out the birthday banner. Thank you Diedre! It turned out looking fantastic.
And we had colorful ice cubes to eat with our pizza. I used Koolaid for the first couple batches then just started using food coloring for the last two to save me some sugar :)
and added a little Sprite...
We played several fun games such as Bingo and Find The Shapes (a game made up by our family) but my favorite was the marble painting. I picked up the tupperware tubs at a dollar store and some marbles. It worked out great! Just put down your paper, add a couple random drops of paint on the paper, put down 3-4 marbles and tilt, turn, pivot those marbles all over the place.
It makes some pretty cool art work.
The birthday girl in a fun, bright skirt! I used the Double Layer Square Circle Skirt from Make It and Love It for the pattern.
My favorite part:
THE CAKE!! I love making these layered cakes. They are so fun.
I found this idea from Pinterest and thought it was perfect! The layers are baked super thin.
Then stacked together with frosting and frozen pvernight.
The website I found this idea at used a biscuit cutter and cut cute circles, but I didn't have a biscuit cutter and couldn't find the right one in time, so we just cut it into squares and cut the edges to make it nice and neat.
A little frosting on top with some candles and TA-DA!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Michel-E girl!
