{Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Birthday}

Hey there!

This next party is a trip down memory lane for this mom who wanted to share her love for Strawberry Shortcake with her birthday girl.  The whole party was inspired by a piece of fabric that her mother had saved from her childhood bedroom.  Since there is no way we could recreate the theme without the actual vintage Strawberry Shortcake doll, I purchased the high quality graphic from Hello Love Too via Etsy.


As always, I asked Johanna from GloboArte to create a masterpiece and what better than larger than life size doll!  She went all out to create all the balloon art.



Then there is the dessert table full of strawberry goodness:  strawberry mousse, meringues, gummi bears, marshmallows and puff candy, as well as other favorites such as brownies, M&Ms, fruits, guava pastries, french macarons and, of course, sugar cookies by the very talented Peggy Pérez.











None of my dessert tables is complete without water bottle labels, striped straws with little flags, tags and garlands and all the cuteness I always find on Shop Sweet Lulu, such as the little wooden spoons, goody bags, strawberry baskets and striped straws.










So fun creating this one!

Love,

{Watermelon Berry Happy Birthday}



As we were browsing the web for a different idea for Elena's 2nd birthday, we immediately loved the watermelon strawberry theme simply because of the color palette: pink, melon and lime.  We were inspired by Whimsical Printables' Summer Party, and with the watermelon amazing graphics by Kelly Medina, I created my own design using a homemade gingham pattern, chevron and of course, polka dots.


My amazing balloon designer Johanna Padín created beautiful art in two columns and a number two with watermelon and strawberry elements.  I made the huge fabric garland hanging in the background, as well as the birthday banner on the main table.








Other items I created were the dessert tags, dessert toppers, water bottle labels, straw flags made out of the fabric instead of paper, and the lovely birthday hat for little Elena.  I also glittered up some demitasse wooden spoons from Shop Sweet Lulu.











We wanted to feature desserts as well as candy, so I ordered cake pops, brownies, strawberry parfaits, fruit salad, cheesecakes and sugar cookies. All the sweets are from Pastry Gallery, sugar cookies by my usual talented baker, Peggy Pérez and the amazing cake and cupcakes by Wanda González.










Thank you for visiting!
