Mini Diaper Cake with Zoo Animal Toppers

Aloha!! Hope you are having a blessed week!! The year is almost OVER!! October is the month that everything just starts to feel like we're going down hill quickly.... I actually start to make my Christmas list this month, and I haven't even started that yet, so I already feel like I'm BEHIND!! I need to get on it, and start ordering stuffs so I can get them in on time. Anyways, after October, Thanksgiving comes, and then CHRISTMAS!! Thanking Jesus for this blessed day that we get to celebrate HIS birth. Did you know that it probably wasn't even in December that Jesus was born??  Interesting fact, right??? 

This past weekend, a friend asked me to make some mini diapers for a baby shower she was hosting. I used Little Scraps of Heaven Design's Zoo Animals 1, 2 & 3!! Loved these adorable animals. They are too CUTE!!  Here's how they turned out!!! 

Giraffe

 Lion... hear me Rawr!

Grizzly Bear

Walrus

Zebra

 

Here's all the gang together.... 

 
That's all folks... enjoy the rest of the week!!

I am submitting my project to the following fun challenges out there:

• Come and Get it Challenges: Use Orange (my ribbon around the cakes is orange) 
• Alphabet Challenge Blog: R is for Ribbon
• Brown Sugar: Anything Goes 
• Crafting With an Attitude: Anything Goes

Mini Baby Diaper Cakes

This weekend, I helped my niece create some cute mini diaper cakes for her friend's upcoming baby shower. I used Little Scraps of Heaven Design's "Spring Owl" and created "HOOT" on the eCal program. Here's how they turned out:

Baby Shower Centerpieces - RECYCLED!!!

Hey Gang!!!  So, if you haven't checked out the Birthday Blog Candi Blessings for today yet, scroll down, and add a comment for your chance at winning it!!!

Here's what I created yesterday!!  So happy and proud of myself!!  These jars were actually used as
center pieces for a previous function, a function for my son's Youth Spaghetti night (see pic on right).  Well, cause they didn't have room to store it, and to reuse it, it was returned to me, and sat in my garage, collecting dust for the last year!!!!  LOL!!!  Then my next door neighbor asked me a couple of weeks ago, if I could help with her grand-baby's shower... if I had any ideas, and of course keeping the cost down is always good advice, right??  So I told her we could use these!!! We used my heating gun to heat the candle and easily remove them.  Removed the tinseled outter decorating (since it was just adhered on with glue gun, it easily removed!!).  Then we had a whole new canvas to create with.

When she gave the jar to me to tie the purple ribbon around, she only had the clear rocks and the Bath n' Body Mini Anti-Bacterial bottle in there.  I suddenly had a wonderful idea, to decorate and add more to it, and here's what it turned out to be!!!  She doesn't know yet that I had decorated it like this, it will be such a sweet surprise for her to see!!!  I can't wait!!!
