I’m a little excited about today’s find, I’ve got a soft spot for polka dots, red and white in particular, so when I stumbled across this red and white polkadot tissue paper in Big W, I snapped it up!

Part of their Christmas range (look in the wrap section), it’s perfect for making pretty party pom poms, not just for christmas, but for any parties you may have planned for the year. Run don’t walk party planners, they won’t have it after the festive season!

I love it when clients share their celebration photos with me, so I was thrilled when clever mum Marissa emailed through these gorgeous shots of her daughter Elle’s 1st Birthday last Sunday.

Using a our One Little Lala Bird invitations as a base, she put together a pretty pink and red theme.
Marissa made all the little details including the party hats. The cake was made by Nikos Quality Cakes in Oakleigh. I particularly love how she’s used an invitation on the top of the cake stand to further theme in the little lala bird and our one lala party tags are the perfect finishing touch.

Thanks so much for sharing Marissa, and happy birthday Elle!

I love cupcakes. My kids love cupcakes, in fact everyone I know loves cupcakes, so cupcakes were a perfect choice for a design to include in our new party invitation range.

There are so many beautiful things you can do with this theme. Set up a baking table and let kids ice their own cupcakes to take home in little boxes, make up a felt cupcake and play ‘pin the candle’ on the cupcake. Decorate in theme with the invitation using pink, white, chocolate and a dash of red. Use cherries, cupcakes, flowers and all things pink and sweet for a Cupcake party to remember.
