{1st Birthday!}

First Birthdays are a big deal, and when my friend McCall asked me to help her throw a cupcake party for her baby girl, I was thrilled! After getting a little inspiration from here here, McCall asked me to design some fun invitations, cupcake toppers and labels for the cupcake party!

McCall also wanted to find a cute cupcake shirt for Libby to wear to her party, and after looking all over with no luck, we decided to just make one. While it might look a little hard and intimidating, it was so easy! Seriously, a little heat'n'bond goes a long way! Even if your sewing skills are lacking, you can make this shirt! (You can find the pattern we used here.)

Brandi, McCall, & Me...
(funny story- I knew Brandi in high school....well, I knew of her. She was a year older than me, but we were in the same FCCLA club and went to Florida together for Nationals. I thought her and her friends were the bomb-dot-com! I mean, she was always so nice and fun and actually talked to the younger, junior girls. So naturally, when I found out she was McCalls sister in law, I was thrilled! They're both such fun, cute gals!)

Time to get cleaned up!

Thanks for including me in your special day, Libby! It turned out so cute!
