On May 13th it was my moms 60th birthday. My sister and I planned a surprise party to celebrate. Our colour theme was green and blue and we also used daisies.

I saw these large pompoms in Martha Stewart Weddings and decided to try to make them. They actually turned out pretty well and were easy to make, unlike some of the projects that are shown there.

Here are the 2 cakes that I made.

We gave out favours in the aqua and apple take out boxes. Inside was very yummy chocolate covered peanut brittle made by Jenny who is a friend from Stratford who has a business making peanut brittle.

Aidan was kind enough to provide the musical entertainment.

Me, my mom and my sister.

Thank you to everyone who helped us make Mom’s birthday a special surprise.

Hope you had a great birthday Mom. I can only hope that I look as good as you do when I turn 60!

Thank you to everyone who wrote in and let me know about all the cool laptop bags that are available. I had a hard time choosing one because they were all so cool. I think I have decided to get the Trixy bag from Acme in Chocolate and Pink. They are out of stock right now so I am eagerly waiting to order one.

Laura asked us to create some custom designed chocolate bar wrappers for her wedding. She wanted to give chocolate bars to her guests as favours but wanted to make them unique by having a wrapper that was fun and whimsical.

Here is what we designed for her.

I think they turned out great and they were fun to design.

Laura was kind enough to send me some photos of her wedding which I must say looks beautiful. I love the combination of pink and orange and I think this looks lovely.


Laura and Tim.

Congratulations Laura and Tim. We hope your wedding was everything you had hoped for. It looked beautiful.
