Confession: There's a lot of pressure in party-blogger-land to do features, to show every last detail…
Pretty in Pink party: Elin Paige is 1!
Posted under Birthday Parties, parties for girls, pretty in pink
My sweet customer Chrissy recently put together a “Pretty in Pink” party for her daughter Elin Paige’s first birthday. She used a classic and simple color palette of pink, white, and silver, with gorgeous textures and details such as a ruffle cake, pink hydrangeas, and paper rosettes. The party decor was made using my printable “Pretty in Pink” decor kit, plus custom water labels. Other special touches to look for: beautiful custom cookies, a month-by-month photo display, and birthday girl Elin Paige’s fabulously frilly custom party hat!







The flowers are by Rosemari Herbert of McNamara Florist.

The beautiful two-tier ombre ruffle cake and smash cake are by Piece of Cake. The little white bow is the best detail!


The custom cookies were made by Sugar Dreams Cakes and Things.

Chrissy displayed her homemade dipped marshmallows in a two-tier stand, and customized it using printable circles, a buffet card, and pink ribbons.

Elin’s custom monogram party hat is by Dainty Couture.

The waterproof water labels are from Chickabug.

Pink lemonade is a must! The printable sign is part of my “Pretty in Pink” printable decor collection, as is the month-by-month photo banner:

The banner can be made using horizontal or vertical photos, although Chrissy opted for all vertical photos for a uniform look. The printable circles at the bottom of each banner piece say what age Elin is in each picture.


The custom photo paper plates were from Hallmark, although they are no longer available (as of 7.15.13). But, you can make melamine photo plates at Shutterfly.












Elin’s monogrammed bib is by Dainty Couture and her bow is by Chic Bella Bowtique.

Elin’s birthday outfit is from Mudpie.
