Birthday breakfast & birthday girl



 My sweet Sofia is 14 today!! I cannot believe how big she is. She is so smart, pretty, sweet, creative and so much more, I'm so proud to be her mum!!
We celebrated her birthday this weekend with a Mexican themed party with lots of cacti, pineapples and of course Frida. 
I'll share some photo's of her party in a next post.

A vintage camera party



 Last monday my sweet Sofia celebrated her 13th birthday.Last year I told her that the next party she would have to do herself and I would not make her a themed birthday party anymore, because she is a big girl  and in high school! But when the date of her birthday approached I couldn't help myself thinking about making her a birthday party so I asked Mila if she would like to surprise her sister and make her a suprise themed party. 
The theme we choose for her is vintage camera, she loves cameras, film and photo's and is really into vintage lately, to give the party a grown up look I decided to go for black and white as the main colours and added a lovely shade of blue to give it a vinatge touch.

For the decoration I painted cardboard camera's together with Mila, a fun and in expensive project that really stands out I think. I made lots of darwings of camera's and screenprinted them on plain cotton and used this to make a backdrop for the photobooth and made some cushions for the Sofa.

Of course the food had to match the theme too...so we baked sugar cookies in camera shapes and decorated them with icing and candy, cupcakes with white chocoalet and fondant cameras on top and a chocolate cake in a camera shape.
Sofia's day began with a nice cemar breakfast, we used crakers, oreo cookie, candy, cookies and croissant dough to form the camera's and served it with a jummie green smothie.

Sofia loved her surprise themed party and I loved creating it for her!!

Another birthday party

 Today we celebrate a special birthday, my man turned 40 today and of course the girls and I wanted to surprise him. But what to do/ give a man of 40 ? We gave him a nice breakfast and lots of enveloppes filled with sweet cards made by the girls with gift vouchers for a dinner, a cinema visit and a weekend trip. We covered the table with brown craft table and I gave the girls a marker to decorate it. I made a little banner with ' life starts at' and decorated the wall with a big washi tape 40. I think he liked it ;-)
