Savvy Parties~Jessie Cowgirl Party

2011-06-28T06:32:00.000-07:00

My son Codys sweet preschool friend Kooper just had a fabulous Jessie/Cowgirl birthday party. I had such a blast designing all of the Savvy Party Designs and baking all of the Savvy Desserts!!

I designed some cute name labels for all the kiddos and their yummy favor bags!

Yummy SAVVY Cookies I baked for the kiddos favors, I wrapped then in a cellophane bag and tied on our thank you favor tags...love how they turned out.

Yummy Savvy Cake Pops I baked for favors as well...so fun!!

The birthday girl so excited for all her fun birthday treats!

Matching red and yellow Savvy Cupcakes with sprinkles!

The Savvy Cake Pop Centerpieces were a huge hit

Fun matching Jessie cupcake toppers

I LOVE designing fun girly themes and this was one of my favorites!! All of the Savvy Party Design and Savvy Dessert were baked and designed with LOVE by The Two Savvy Sisters!!

I am designing, baking and prepping this week for my best friends son's first birthday! Mason is having a monkey party, so I thought I should share these adorable monkey cupcakes that I am going to bake for his party!!

Picture and recipe via Fun Stuff Cupcakes

Monkey A-Round Cupcakes
1 package Chocolate cake mix

Desired color food coloring

44 chocolate disks

Small black jelly beans or chocolate chips

Black string licorice

Preheat oven to 350 and mix all ingredients, bake for 21 to 23 minutes and let cool.

1. Frost cupcakes with chocolate frosting

2. Pipe circle of yellow frosting in center of each chocolate for ears and for face. Use jelly beans for eyes, cut licorice for nose and mouth.

3. Use toothpick or knife to pull up frosting for hair.

Buttercream Frosting

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon meringue powder

1 tablespoon milk

Cayden's Camo Party

2011-06-17T07:19:00.000-07:00

WOW I can't believe how long it has been since I last blogged!! It has been a very busy few months for us, we just moved and we are finally settled and getting back into the swing of things. Now that it is summer time I am not running around like a crazy women trying to get one kid to baseball practice the other kiddo to baseball and or tutoring...you all know the how it goes! The typical soccer or in this case baseball mom that pretty much lives out of her car lol! So I should have posted my son's 6th birthday about 2 months ago but hey better late then never. My son Cayden wanted a camo/camping party at the park, he was sooo excited and had a BLAST!!

I had a blast designing all of Cayden's SAVVY Party Designs, he helped me design everything...he had to have it all camo!

He LOVED his camo cookies made by the fabulous Erin of Whip It Good Cookies

She did a fabulous job designing his camo cookies and they tasted AMAZING!!

Of course the FABULOUS cake was made by Candice one of her many SAVVY DESSERTS!! She did such a wonderful job designing his cake. Lots of time and heart went into his cake, Candice is soooo wonderful!!

I got lucky and found these perfect camo baskets from the dollar store, so I filled them with goodies add camo thank you favor tags and they made perfect camo party favors!

I had some fun Kamo Kones designed from Gen of Celebration Today...The Superchick way!

Cayden blowing out his candles...LOVE that little dude sooo much!!

Family birthday photo, just missing Cody he was off making a mess in the sand box!!

Cayden had such a blast playing with all of his friends and loved all of his fabulous camo yummies, decor, and gifts. Now he wants me to design a camo room for him UGH its never ending!!

I have been waiting and waiting and waiting to post this fabulous play-date but had to wait for my week dedicated to all things Thanksgiving...I am so excited to finally get to share it with all of you!!

For the "Whoot of Thanks" Play Date theme, their inspirations came from a collaboration of fall, Thanksgiving, and Owls. They wanted to feature natural elements such as woods, moss and leaves to compliment this inspiration.

How adorable are these fabulous cupcakes, cake balls and owl cookie pops that coordinated with the colors and theme perfectly...so fun!!

It looks like the kiddos and mommies had a fabulous time!!

Cupcake Recipe Of The Week~Mini Thanksgiving Cupcakes

Since this week is dedicated to all things Thanksgiving I am sharing these mini Thanksgiving Cupcakes!! I am going to make these for my son's preschool Thanksgiving show...so excited!!

Mini Thanksgiving Cupcakes

1 cup whole milk, room temperature

6 large egg whites, room temperature

2 teaspoons almond extract

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 and 1/4 cups cake flour

1 and 3/4 cups sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

12 tablespoons (1 and 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 12 pieces and softened

Whisk the milk, egg whites, and extracts together in a small bowl.In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together.

Using an electric mixer on medium-low speed, beat the butter, one piece at a time, into the flour mixture, about 30 seconds. Continue to beat the mixture until it resembles moist crumbs, 1 to 3 minutes.

Beat in all but 1/2 cup of the milk mixture, then increase the mixer speed to medium and beat the batter until smooth, light, and fluffy, 1 to 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly beat in the remaining 1/2 cup of the milk mixture until the batter looks slightly curdled, about 15 seconds.

Preheat oven to 350 and mix all ingredients, bake for 20 to 25 minutes and let cool.

Divide the frosting into three bowls and tint each with desired food coloring tint.

Using your pastry bag and desired tip, pipe the frosting in a cone-shape on the cupcakes!!

Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon meringue powder

1 tablespoon milk

1 package powdered sugar

Happy baking, if anyone decides to bake these adorable cupcakes I would love to see pictures

Lovable Labels Giveaway!!

2010-11-08T06:18:00.000-08:00

Lovable Labels Giveaway!!

Both my boys started school this year, Cayden started kindergarten and Cody started preschool!! So there is no joy in labeling everything with a sharpie for it to just come right off...not so fun!!

The best solution is Lovable Labels it provides me with the resources to make sure nothing gets misplaced. When Laura(a mom of a child in daycare) had to label everything for her son, she noticed a need for labels that could withstand everything a child could do to it. Laura created a line of labels that include Regular and Slimline Stickers, Shoe Labels, Iron-ons and Bag Tags. They are not only bright, fun and colorful but also met the high standards that parents have come to expect. The Regular and Slimline labels are microwave and dishwasher safe, the Iron-on labels stay put in the washer and dryer, the Shoe Labels have an extra strength adhesive to ensure they won't come off and the Bag Tags are made of a durable and flexible plastic.

My son Cayden was sent a Back To School Pack of labels.

Back To School Pack includes:

•15 Regular Sticker Labels

•40 Slimline Sticker Labels

•72 Press n'Stick Clothing DOTS

•12 Shoe Labels

•2 Mini-Metal Tags (two 4” silver ball chains incld)

•12 Square Labels

Here is one of the mini metal tags that I put on Cayden's back pack and lunch box. They are perfect for so many things because they are waterproof and weatherproof!

LOVE the press n' Stick Clothing DOTS. The pack includes 72 of them in a variety of sizes so that I can stick them on shirts, pants, jackets, and more! Simply attach them to the garment tag or care label.

The regular stickers are also great for putting on things like sippy cups, water bottles, and school supplies. They are microwave safe, waterproof and UV resistant!

I would recommend these labels to any mom with kids in daycare or school. Visit Lovable Labels to view all of their products. Be sure to purchase a Holiday Gift Pack before they are gone!

HOLIDAY PACKS

Looking for a unique and useful personalized gift idea? The Holly Jolly Gift Pack was designed with the essentials in mind. Wrapped in a pretty red foil package, the recipient will receive 15 Multi-Purpose Stickers, 40 Slimline Labels, 12 Shoe Labels, 24 Press N' Stick Clothing DOTS (6 Large, 6 Medium and 12 Small) and 2 Mini-Metal Tags.

My boys helped me make them...they love doing crafts with me!!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 3 wooden blocks, I found mine at Hobby Lobby
• Scrapbooking paper of your choice, I picked Christmas paper
• Card stock for the letters
• Paint brush, sandpaper
• Mod Podge

Here are a few simple instructions:
1. Cut your scrapbook paper to fit each block then mod podge the paper onto the block
2. Cut out letters using a cricut or pre bought letters from a craft store then mod podge them onto the blocks
3. Once it is dry use sandpaper to sand off the extra paper on the edges and glue the block together.

Viola...easy peasy!!

Fun Holiday Banner!!

Happy Holidays!!

Wishing Everyone a Fabulous Halloween Weekend!!
