I ( Mindy ) live in northern California and one of our family’s favorite outings is to the jelly belly factory ! Aubrey was so excited about this theme for her party {and so was her brother ... my little guy has lots of allergies and jelly belly beans are vegan and safe for him to enjoy too} and since Aubrey’s birthday occurred in the middle of writing my book, I relied quite a bit on the incredible vendors (listed at the end) to help make her day special!  I also relied on a simple color scheme: Rainbow ! The Jelly Bean Printables were designed by Bird’s Party   - the jelly bean and striped patterns were exactly what I was looking for – and they were just perfect!

My dear and extremely talented friend  Crissy, along with some out-of-this-world vendors, have come together to create this amazing  Jurassic fabulousness  - Packed with fun activities that any mini 'Dino Hunter' would love to dig into! - Check out all the fun and creative details !

This super cool Penguin Birthday Party (pun intended..) was styled by our fabulous contributor Mindy from Creative Juice for Bird's Party Magazine Winter 2011 .  Mindy used Bird's Party penguin frozen Printables and create a really rather fabulous "igloo" inspired desserts table, and I think the cute details she incorporated made the party really soft and delicate, showing just how versatile the theme can be for any child's winter birthday - Boy or Girl! Check out all the amazing details, and party styling tips from Mindy below...

This SUPER fun, colorful and whimsical  Lorax Inspired Birthday Party was styled by our incredibly talented contributor, Smita from The Party Wall . I love working with Smita to come up with printable designs, as she really thinks 'outside the box' in any party she styles, and this one has so many incredible details!! Especially when you realize they were mostly handmade by Smita herself, despite her being a full time lawyer!  :) Check out the stunning details she created for her little Sohan's 5th birthday party...

I love thinking of fun, unique ideas and twists on popular birthday themes, and it was no different for my  children this year - We always have a joint party as they were born on the same day but two years part, and the  Barnyard Farm Theme  was a perfect solution for their 5th and 7th birthday celebrations! I did snap loads of pics a usual, but below's a taster of the day...Oh, and because I made a lot of the stuff by hand, there'll be some tutorials coming all this week! :)

There's no better way to get back into the blogging routine than with a full blown party that's packed with eye candy, right?!!  I know most schools have already started, but this first class Back to School Party styled by Jenifer Banner from Banner Events is soooo beyond incredible that I'm sure you won't mind seeing it now! Plus, I have  re-designed the printables as our  "Little Aviator" Birthday Collection  now available in the shop! ;) I say birthday, but we can also personalize it for weddings and baby showers too.
