Let's Make That Lemon-Lime-ade

Here it is, a big serving of the lemon & lime Candy Buffet!

ENJOY!

How SWEET it is....

I was waaaaaay too excited to wait for more photos...so, here are a couple pics of the Lemon & Lime color theme candy buffet we did this weekend for a baby shower! It was a hit!

All of the goodies, except for the lemon flavored salt water taffy were custom wrapped to fit the theme. The kinds of yummies we had were:

• milkita lollis <-- the perfect size for the mini to-go boxes & tasty too!
• mini hershey bars
• apple gummies
• lemon drops
• salt water taffy
• and bubbles <--everything is better with bubbles! :)

The To-Go boxes with a paper floral accent (it's the paper confetti from the Brides line)

The tablescape! I made those paper 'daisies' with marabou in the center. I thought they'd be a fun piece to add to the color scheme. Also, if you look closely there a few mini butterflies through out the set-up. Again, whimsical and playful! :)

Greys & Yellows Fellows - The Partay

Can I get a drum roll please?

no?

ok.

Well, for your viewing pleasure...here are pictures (courtesy of my dear friend Sarlyn) from the Yellow & Grey Baptismal Celebration! I am waiting for some 'fancier' photos from another friend...but I think you have waited looong enough....SMILE away at these:

Look familiar? The banner looked good up! I was proud of it. [pat on the back for me!]

Tissue Poms that I made. I ended up making about 17 of them and hung them through out the clubhouse. I wish I had more pics...but lookie how cutie they turned out!

A Crowd Favorite - The Cookie Buffet! :)

This party was so much fun to do..the color scheme was fresh and different. People reaaallly enjoyed the goodies and the details. I did fail to get pics of the votives and the drink room! booo...hopefully other friend got some. Thanks Christine & Danhil for inviting us to b.a.s.h it up!"

Grey & Yellow Pt III - Baggies and Taggies

Some of the most delish treats come from those 'small' bakeries in town. For a long time, Azila and I have been big fans of this local bakery, "Monica's Waterfront Bakery & Cafe," in old town Silverdale. Not until April of this year did a friend of mine introduce me to their custom cookies! I thought they were done so cute that I have been itching to find a reason to order some.

And so for the baptismal, along side a cookie buffet (photos later), were cookies I ordered from the bakery and personalized with the letter "E" for Elijah.

Using the same pattern as was used for the votive candle wraps and the banner, I created tags for the cookies. Originally I wanted to stick them in a baggie and just use the sticker label to seal the baggies. But cute Azila wanted to showcase my taggies, and so, she decided to skip over the sticker label altogether and just punch holes in them and twisty tie the baggies shut.

She made the right choice, cause they turned out so cute. She did a great job putting the tasty "shortbread sugar iced" treats in baggies and tying them with taggies. Thanks girl!! See...

Pictures of the event soon to come. I am waiting for pics from a friend!! :)

The Elephant & The Ducky

Like the title of this blog post? teehee. It's my interpretation of grey and yellow! :) From my previous post, you saw the goodies I bought to prepare for the yellowgrey partay this weekend. Well, here are a few teaser shots of what I've been working on....

I wish I could show more...but just in case...I get a few peekers at this, I don't want the clients to seeeeeeee! :D

But for now...here's the banner I made (with the help of hubby cutting the circles out) and a votive i shazzamed up!

gniters all! till tomorrow....

Azila and I are going to stage it and do a photo shoot tomorrow. :) fun....

Yellow...not so Mellow...

This weekend we have a baptismal to dress up :) And the color scheme I chose was yellow and grey...

so, I went yellow...all oooover!

• Yellow poms
• Yellow baggies for the favors
• Yellow accent ribbon
• Yellow paper flowers (i could not resist the cuteness of these!!)
• Galvanized white buckets for a table scape ($2.50 at Targhey)
• Mini White wooden stool for tablescape.

Oh...finally, here are the invites I made for this baptismal. They were grey texture cardstock layered with yellow cardstock, then cream textured text paper. It was bound with glue and topped off with grey/silver ribbon and a cross charm!

This is a pic of them packaged and ready for the client.

Now the goooooooodies for decor!

SO EXCITED to PUT IT TOGETHER!!
