Happy Baby Party Day Diaper Cake

Happy Saturday....today is our DD's baby shower and this is what I ended up making for her party...I originally wanted to make the baby skull but that kind of got ix-nayed....lol...so here's baby Minnie in all her Glory....ENJOY!!!!

I used 110 NB diapers to make the layers and only one tall baby bottle...the bottle doesn't go all the way up....I like it that way so I can remove the top layer if needed....I loved the texture that the silver packaging gives this project.....

and here's just a little cutie that I added to her bag of goodies.....isn't she darling!!!! LOL... Baby's first piggy bank.... just a front view.....Well peeps, I hope that everyone has a great weekend.....Hugs from Sunny Charm City......

Now Look at how Adorable these are

I just wanted to share some loveliness that I received in the mail not log ago...I ordered these prolly about a month back and forgot about them til the other day.....here is my inspiration for one of my next projects....ENJOY!!!!!

if you remember, a couple weeks back I had made a diaper cake for a co-worker and his wife...here's a link if you would like to see it..... diaper cake....well our eldest daughter is having their second baby and it's a girl...wooty woot...a girl...yah!!!! Well anyways, lol, I am making her a diaper cake....and the shoes and socks are my inspiration for the cake....what do you think? Think she'll like it....I think she kind of got a little jealous with the other one I made cuz I didn't make her one for her first shower....so I need to make up for that and make her a doozy...YKWIM!!!! lol...

here are these yummy shoes...I got these from Spensor's online...along with the socks....

here's the little 3pk socks.... ****************

I would like to ask a favor though...I am on the look-out for a digi image(s) that would fit this theme (not cupcake skull...but baby/skull...did that make sense? ....I have not been able to find any.....please please share...lol....I would love to make a matching card for her cake too.....

******************

well thanks again for stopping in....and any help is greatly appreciated.....I can't wait to get this finished.....I am so stoked...lol.....hugs from Charm City....

A New Baby

Happy Saturday evening peeps....I have been crazy busy trying to get this diaper cake made and been battling a cold. I guess more nursing the cold than anything. It seems like it just doesn't want to move on. BAH!!! My girlfriend and I went to a baby shower today for a co-worker and this is what I made for our gift. I kept the diaper cake simple and we ended up putting all of the gifts into a bag instead of loading down this. I really wanted the cake to shine instead of getting lost with all of the gifts loaded onto it....this is the second one I've made and I really loved how this one turned out....ENJOY!!!!!!

I know it's not a very good photo but I thought you'd like to see it anyways....I ended up using 90 baby diapers to make the 3 tiers....wrapped each one in a receiving blanket added 3 layers of ribbon premade bows and to hiide the tops of the diapers I used the bag filler stuff....the huge rhinestones is actually a plastic ring and I got those in the party section at Wal-Mart....I purchased everything here from Wal-Mart with the exception of the darker ribbon (Micheals)...oh and thoise darling little shoes I paid $1.75 for those...man was I doing the happy dance...lol...who needs expensive shoes when they are that young...lol... here's the matching card....I used an image from Mel-Jen Designs....I thought it was perfect for the musical giraffe on top of the cake....I also used tulle and the darker ribbon like I did on the cake to try and keep the desing the same....now I know this is a girl present, and I didn't realize that this was a boy giraffe, but hey, things like this happen when you get older...lol...you don't see as well....

here's the inside...crap photo again...just wanted to do a visual...I kept it very simple...

and here she is in all her glory....I just used clear celephane--2 strips and rolled and tucked and tied at the top......everyone loved it....

************************

well that's all I have for today....this week I need to get ready for our yearly St. Patty's Day Smash Bash we do every year....I have some new items to work with for our costumes and soo can't wait to pull it all together....DH has even added new stuff this year....I was just looking at our photos from the past 6 years...I'll have to share them...it's a true sign DH and I really are nurds....lol....so stay turned...maybe tomorrow....Hugs from Charm City....
