{Featured Client Parties} Nick's 50th Lap Celebration

We shared with you some sneak peaks from our NYC trip this past December, and today we want to show you the real deal. This party will keep you drooling for more! One of our favorite clients, Zulema, contacted us to design a Formula 1 Race Car invitation for her partner's 50th Birthday Celebration. Zulema was the Event Stylist (Zueats Events) for this amazing soiree and we worked with her on every graphic detail and more - from custom invitations to the final touches at the actual event.

We started by creating an invitation inspired by a retro Formula 1 poster, but used a photo of the actual birthday boy, Nick, from his racing days.

Zulema packaged the invite in a tri-fold wrap, with a matching envelope seal... she even found flag stamps - so perfect!

The venue was hand-picked by Nick & Zulema... they rented the SoHi room at the brand new Trump Soho Tower. You could see all of New York from every window. (these photos don't really do it justice... the view was unbelievable!)

Zulema picked a geometric eye-catching backdrop to set her table, and we designed the collection around this (and the racing theme)
The Chocolate covered Oreos were made by: Sweeties by KimMoet Champagne favor gifts - sooo good!!!These matching Sugar cookies were made by: The Cookie Jar

Chocolate covered pretzals with race cars made by: PretzalsPleaze
Racing Cake Pops made by: Sweet Shenanigans

Last but not least... the CAKE!!! Race car fondant toppers made by: CraftyRosy

{Featured Client Parties} A Cowboy Party that will make you want to Giddy Up!

I am dying over this photography sent it to us by a super sweet client, Jenny. Jenny runs her own photography business, Jenny Collier Photography out of Tulsa.

Jenny held a western cowboy party for her son and I just love everything she did for the party! Everything is clean and simple looking with details in all of the right places.

Let's start with the FABULOUS cake. I love how simple and perfect it is. The placement on the table with the beautiful daisies and tin buckets with snacks - so cute. Add the burlap and gingham table cloth and it is perfectly styled!

These photos on clothespins are SO adorable!

I love the photograph in the awesome frame above the treat/favor area.

The tables were so "fitting" for the theme.... (Can you see what I mean? Beautiful photography!?)

I love the western looking writing on the chalkboard to announce "Happy Birthday Hudson".

The printable favor hangtags are my new favorite shape for favor tags! She tied them so nicely with twine....

Cute, cute CUTE - little ponies with favor tags hanging.... I bet the kids had a BALL with those!

Adorable menu that Jenny put together...

The printed food labels looked perfect on the table - S'mores Pops.... I want some!

Another beautiful shot of the cake....

Aren't the cow print balloons to die for? The banner looks great and I can't believe the walls even go with the party! ;-) Great planning, Jenny!

Great job, Jenny! I love everything!

Be sure to check out Jenny's photography website. Absolutely beautiful work!

The Western Cowboy printable invitation and
complete printable coordinating accessories are available in our shop.

{Client Parties} Owen's Sweet One - A Sesame Street Inspired Birthday Party

Welcome to Owen's Sweet One!

Our client Trish, came to us with an idea. She wanted a Sesame Street inspired theme for her son Owen's first birthday. Once we created the invite, the return address labels, the matching coordinating labels (used for favor bags and labeling the party / drink station) and the Thank You cards, the ideas flowed for Trish and everything else fell into place. The best part of the party, according to Trish, "was to have all our friends and family there...everyone had a blast and just loved it from the start with the FABULOUS invitation they received in the mail." Trish also was thrilled to mention that another crowd pleaser was the dessert; a fantastic cake from a family friend. Trish, thank you for sharing with us photos from Owen's special day!

The invitation and return address label for the special day!

What a cutie you are, Owen; we love your custom tee!

Owen, the birthday boy. Let him eat cake :)

The cake....Ta Dah!!!

More Sesame Street inspired goodies!
