Dinosaur Birthday

August 13, 2019

Stomp, Chomp, Roar! This party is a fun filled, colourful prehistoric adventure!
A dino-mite party with absolutely a-roar-able decorations, treats, favors and more!

Niko-Saurus has spent the better part of the year in a make believe dinosaur world, so naturally, why not bring it to life with a birthday party!

These party hats are too cute with the back side showing spikes!

No better a favor for this party than a dino adoption…or two!

For the older party guests, I found these great and challenging 3D puzzle designs at the dollar store. In what could be a bit boring of party for those 10+, this favor gives them something to do while the littles run around making T Rex sound effects!

Evon of Cookievonster never disappoints, these dino-mite cookies where hand cut to follow my paper designs. Amazing talent!

Roar this way to Niko’s 5th Birthday!

Carnivores, Herbivores and Sweetivores : All Welcome

I made these adorable mini party hats with the coordinating party papers. These guests were happy to join in on the fun!

Happy celebrating!

How to Make a Party Hat

June 14, 2016

Every birthday child needs the don the special celebratory attire of the ‘birthday hat!’

Every party package that I create includes various party hat designs that are ready for just this job! So to make the process of assembling one of these easier, today I am sharing a step by step guide. And if that is not help enough, I am also providing a free printable party hat of this particularly cute striped navy and white design!

To make this party hat, you will need the following…

Party Hat Printable
Pair of Sharp Scissors
Scotch Tape/Hot Glue
Ribbon
Embellishments (optional)

Start of with printing you party hat on heavy white card stock (I would recommend 65lb card stock). Using the guidelines, cut out the hat with scissors.

Once you have the party hat cut out, roll the paper into a cone shape with the dotted line side under the finished edge.

Once you’ve rolled the hat into the cone shape, tape/hot glue in place. I used scotch tape which can look a bit of a mess, so the other option is to use a the hot glue gun for a cleaner look. Whatever you choose, this is the back side of the hat and so…what you don’t see is no big deal :)

Next, choose a coordinating ribbon and trim two pieces to the lengths you need to tie a nice bow once on the birthday child. Tape or Staple the ribbon to the inside of the hat and keep in mind where is the front.

I decided to make this hat from my son’s first birthday cake smash so I added a shimmer jigsaw chipboard number “1” which is made by MakingMemories (available in most scrapbooking /craft stores). It is really up to you with how you want to embellish the hat; a pom pom on top, some fringe on the bottom. So many ways to personalize and make it your own!

Just for a daily dose of cuteness, my littlest one in his cake smash mess!

Please use this free party hat to create something lovely for your little one. Download your hat by clicking on the ‘Tania’s Design Studio – Party Hat’ link below!

Army Soldier Birthday Party

May 23, 2016

army cover-p001

Atten-HUT! Left, Left, Left, Right Left! Forward & march on up to see the many cool details of this Army Soldier Birthday Party. Sargent Luka turned 9 and wanted a Boot Camp Style celebration with a compulsory Nerf gun fight. With camo bandanas, some camo-cake, and a great drill sergeant, this party was a success…Mission Accomplished!

Party Highlights to look out for:

– Camouflage cake [inside & out] topped with a mini bunting and a soldier
– Dog tag favors for each Private and Badges of Honor DIY
– Army barracks tent dessert table backdrop

– Top Secret Draft Notice Invitation
– Obstacle course, Tug o War and Sniper training activities

Army trail mix! Mixture of pretzels, yogurt covered raisins, goldfish, and mint Aero bites.

Each Private invited, had a TOP SECRET Mission sealed and ready for after their enlistment.

The Mess Hall was a buzz with important work ahead!

Simple games and activities kept the soldiers calm before deployment!

These DIY paper roll binoculars were fun to make and doubled as a party favor.

Favor bags were stuffed with MRE [Meals Ready to Eat]!

Luka and I were excited to find this ammo crate at the Army surplus and it definitely served its time in a combat zone!

Camouflage cupcakes! Not only were these frosted with camo icing, I made the cake batter camo too!

This Band of Brothers had an amazing time!

Once the Privates completed their Mission they were awarded their Medal of Honor!

Using store bought favor medals I re imagined them as pin on medals, a little cutting, folding, glue and a pin, they were ready for the troops!

Happy Birthday Soldier!

Hope you enjoy all your birthdays like you did this one!

Nautical Baptism

April 20, 2016

Welcome aboard Baby Nikola! Faith, Hope and Love was the inspiration for my youngest crew member’s Nautical themed Baptism.

Party Highlights:

Blue mason jars tied with sailor’s rope + a hanging lifesaver
Sailboat cupcakes with blue and white swirl frosting
Anchor cookies and cake pops
Coordinating paper pinwheels and rosettes
Beautiful flower arrangements

The nautical theme is very popular so I opted to design my party package with a color scheme just off from the obvious; navy and aqua. Pops of red were incorporated to keep the table and decor fun and fresh.

The gorgeous cake pops were made Carmen’s Sweet Creations and really helped the cute factor on the sweets table. Anchor sugar cookies are by Lexi of Pink Frosting.

Each table had a beautiful mason jar centerpiece filled with big beautiful white peonies, hydrengas, double lisianthus, vendella roses, lime carnations and button poms. Flower arranging is another hobby I would love to dabble in when I have more time! Adding some paper pinwheels and rosettes made with the coordinating patterned papers really helped unify the theme throughout the room.

Using twine and a white peppermint lifesaver, these mason jars went from cute to adorable!

Sailboat cupcakes were an easy way to change up the cupcake toppers and a perfect example of smooth sailing ;)

Many of the pieces of this baptism set are incorporated into Nikola’s bedroom decor still! The name banner and this ‘God Bless’ sign made their home on his nursery bookshelf.

The paper rosettes had various pictures of Nikola at the center which was a special way to share sweet moments of home life with friends and family. Small paper punched confetti was placed at each table as well!
