Rag Dolls and Mermaid Cake

I have been busy planning birthday parties for my two daughters, whose birthdays are only 5 days apart. I have been wanting to make rag dolls for my girls for a long time and I finally got around to it. Oh it was so much fun to make these. I am sure I will be whipping out a few more.


My daughters had a "Mermaid" theme party and this is what I came up with for the cake. My girls LOVED it!

Whimsical Embroidery and Cute Pin Cushion

I found this colorful tank at Target on clearance for an awesome price of 75 cents, however, it was a little plain so I decided it needed a cheerful owl embroidered on it. What do you think?
Here is a closer look. I love how it turned out... just makes me smile.
I saw this idea somewhere, wish I remembered where, but I was in need of a pin cushion so I decided to make one... I have never had one. I thought the idea of a little tree stump was so fun. I can't believe I haven't made one before. Enjoy!

Festive Brownies

We enjoyed these delicious treats while playing games with family. We had a wonderful 4th of July with plenty of Family, Food, Fireworks and FUN, FUN, FUN!Hope you all had a wonderful holiday too!
