A Lalaloopsy Birthday Party

We celebrated my little girls 3rd birthday on Saturday. Like I mentioned before she wanted a blue Lalaloopsy birthday party with a Christmas tree. And like always no matter how small the party is, I need to decorate.I decorated the ladder and the little cubby that is in the kitchen. Nothing fancy, just a bunch of stuff from the sewing closet and of course some balloons.When she saw it all decorated she just loved it and that is all that I had hoped for. Her brother and sister wrapped up an old stuffed animal of hers as her gift. Then about an hour later I found the birthday girl opening her gift waay ahead of time. Apparently she couldn’t handle the suspense.I made her birthday cake out of fondant. I just love working with this stuff. It is like decorating a cake with play-doh. Plus my cakes always seem to come out better this way. Remember my Mt.Crumpit cake? I used the same Lalaloopsy erasers that I used in her Lalaloopsy Birthday Tree.  They are just so cute?I made the little buttons out of fondant using the backside of my decorating tips. All I did was cut out the larger circle using the backside of the largest cake decorating tip that I had. I think it was a 1M. Then I used a smaller tip to make the indentation inside of the larger circle. Then I cut out the two circles in the middle with the right side of the tip. Don’t they look like buttons for real? I tried to make threads from the leftover fondant that I had. I’m not sure that they look like threads, but they do hid my mistakes. I had a few crafts planned but since the kiddos were a little under the weather I decided to save them for another day. Instead we decided to get outside and enjoy the warm spring air. The birthday girl was even sweet enough to let her brother and sister help her blow out the candles.
