Lacey is officially a teenager!

 Who wouldn't jump at the chance to do a Hello Kitty party!  Lacey, my niece, wanted a blue teal and red (which look great together) party.  I think I pulled this one off for about $100.  You probably have noticed that I use some of the same pieces in most of my parties.  This 3 tier stand and the cupcake stand get a lot of use at my house.  I think they were about $30 total from the Christmas Tree Shops.  I think if you stay with a white or beige you can use them more often than if they were a color.  I add the color with ribbon, food or cupcake liners.
 I got the cookie cutters from Michael's.  I had to make one with a "stache" for Lacey.

 The cake pop idea came from http://www.bakerella.com/here-kitty-kitty/
I think she used  the markers on the face, which is much better than the gel.  The gel drove me crazy because I had to transport them to her house and they were rolling all over!! Uggh.  
 Jenni Bowlin punch used for the cake banner.  I had leftover straws from Quin's party.  This was my first attempt at a ribbon cake.  I had to scrape the icing off only one time.  But once I figured it out it wasn't so bad.  

 Spellbinder's and Martha Stewart's Scoring board were used for the banner.  I used Spellbinder's to make the labels for the goodies.


 I made cake batter muddy buddies aka: "kitten chow"  with the recipe from 

 I filled the urn with plain granulated sugar and added this edible Easter grass that was leftover from Easter.
 Lacey got the flower balloon idea from Pinterest too.


 We made some coffee filter flowers.  I added some Glimmer Mists to punch up the colors.
 We printed some images to fill the photo spots on this piece.  The large clothespins came from Michael's. I used the Cricut machine to cut out the numbers and added glitter.


 Stache Kitty!




Lacey's party actually was one of the easiest to set up.  Their dining room made the set up fast.
