It's that time of the year again!

Yep, my daughter's birthday is coming soon and I have been doing some things to celebrate in style! I am so behind with my blog, so please excuse me... I am in the last stage of my PhD which means craziness all over! I am designing stuff for her birthday and printing/cutting at night when I get home... but I love it! Of course I want to share the little things I am doing for Lorelys Maia's third birthday with all of you, my loyal readers! Just like I did last year.

I decided on the "Alice in Wonderland Tea Party" inspired theme which is a movie that my daughter loves (the original movie). This is the invitation that I designed, I just love how it looks. I incorporated the tea party elements and a colorful palette, it is unlike anything I had seen before and that's what I like the most about it!

Stay tuned for the rest of the things I will be doing... including some cute paper mini cupcake stands inspired by Hello Hanna!

Sweetly Sweet Customers {Winnie the Pooh by Monica}

I had lost contact with one of my high school friends, Monica and she found me on Etsy! This world is so small! She fell in love with my pop-up invitations and asked me to create a pop-up invitation to go with a Winnie the Pooh theme for a little boy, I created this invitation as you may remember.


Well my friend Monica sent me the pics of her son's first birthday some time ago and I wanted to share them with you. I would loved to be there, it all looked wonderful!

Just how cute is that birthday cake! Take care everyone and make sure to share this with your Facebook friends!

GiveawayScout Engine!

 I was recently contacted by Giveaway Scout and really liked their site. It is a blog engine for giveaways! They automatically scan thousands of blogs to bring you the latest blog giveaways, sweepstakes and contests. So you will never loose a giveaway again... ever, how cool is that! And now Sweetly Sweet will be a part of of that giveaway engine. Ummm, maybe I should post a giveaway soon... and I know exactly what it will be, but is is not still finished.

Sweet Parties: Sweet Strawberry Party by Julie

This super talented mommy, Julie, just sent me some amazing pics of a strawberry birthday she did using my Sweet Berrylicious Collection! I just love to see the creativity and talent out there. Can you believe this was one of two parties she has attempted so far? (I will show you the other one too!) You are a very talented mommy!

 This is a "Hearts, Polka dots and Stripes" party Julie also had in her facebook page... I just had to share! This looks like a magazine pic!!!

My lovely readers, I know I have neglected my blog for a while, you all know the reason (studies and work) but soon I will come back and write daily again, and create more collections... for now stay tuned because tomorrow I will post another freebie from my Sweet Berrylicious Collection! Can you guess what it will be?

Sweetly Sweet Customers {Girl Baby Shower by Sarah}

I just LOVE it when I get beautiful pictures from customers! So when I saw this baby shower created by Sarah, I just had to share! She threw this party for her sister in law and used my Baby Shower Collection for girls. I have to say the party decorations are simple yet very elegant and simple to do. I love how she incorporated baby clothes in the banner! Thank you Sarah for those wonderful pics and congrats on the addition of a new baby to your family!

You can find this Baby Shower Collection on my Etsy Shop!
