This year my daughter wanted to have a Wonder Woman party!  It was very difficult finding things with Wonder Woman, so I had to rely on Pinterest for ideas to make crafts!  I chose the colors red, blue and yellow to decorate the party.

Though I had planned on having balloons decorated with masks, I decided not to have the balloons because it was very windy out.  I even had a red telephone booth, but the wind broke it in half!

I also made fabric red capes, yellow cuffs with red stars and paper masks for the kids.

Here's the final result:




 I was able to find the Wonder Woman cupcake rings on ebay.

Marshmallow pops covered with blue and red sprinkles:

I attempted to make super lollipops:

All the printables (invitations, bottle labels, food labels and cupcake wrappers) were done by Mitte Creative Co - https://www.facebook.com/MitteCreative

I used Wonder Woman coasters we already had to decorate the trays.


I made 3-layer jello in yellow, blue and red.  However, I put the yellow on the bottom followed by the blue, so it looks like it was green jello!







The little Wonder Woman baskets that I used on the dessert table and the guest tables were made by my daughter and me.  Very simple craft job using glitter rubber sheets and the hot glue gun.  I used the extra cupcake wrappers to cut out the Wonder Woman logo and glue to the front of the little baskets!





 The Slam pictures behind the cake was a last minute find at IKEA that cost me $2.99!

Scooby Doo Party

The biggest challenge with this party was making a Scooby Doo party as girly as possible.  I chose orange, green and blue as the color scheme for the party.

The cake was a 2-tier cake with a mystery van on top.  The entire cake was edible.  Bottom tier was a vanilla cake with dulce de leche filling.  Top tier was a chocolate cake with buttercream filling.  The mystery van was made out of rice krispie treats!

The kids definitely had a sugar high by the end of the party!  Everything on both tables was sweet with the exception of the "goody bags."

The rest of the place:




Another view of the cake:

The little cups had a chocolate custard.  I got the idea of putting sprinkles around the cup from Pinterest.  The little tubes were filled with M&Ms.


I made marshmallows covered in white chocolate.  I used two different types of sprinkles: bone sprinkles and regular rainbow sprinkles.

There were four different kinds of homemade "fudge" balls displayed on the table.  These were made with walnuts:

These were made with milk chocolate:

These were made with coconut:

These were made with semi-sweet chocolate and roasted peanuts:

More cupcakes:

These were homemade "Mounds" (semi-sweet chocolate with coconut filling) on a stick:

Chocolate covered Oreos:

I was able to find dog bowls in orange, green and blue.  I filled them with "ghost" marshmallows (I found them during Halloween), cinnamon Scooby snacks, and honey Scooby snacks.





 The second table had the cupcake stand, scooby snacks, Oreos and goody boxes:
