I will post more pictures with the rainbow layers of the cake!!
Bella's aDORAble 2nd Birthday!
It's been very busy this past month and this is a little delayed. When I went to download the pictures, I realized I didn't have very many and the ones I did have came out blurry. Bummer, but the children had a wonderful time, and that was my goal.
The theme was Princess Dora!
I got her cake from Target. They were the only one's I could find that had Dora Princess.
I also made Dora the Explorer cupcakes! I found the
at Nickjr.com. They are not as easy as the tutorial make it out to be.
Bella awaiting the opening of her presents! I made her birthday dress!
E
ach child got to bring home their own
filled with a crayon roll up, princess wand, and a maraca. I printed some Dora
and rolled them up like the map!
For the party snacks a served a
with all the toppings, as well as some queso and a taco dip. The theme was fiesta in honor of Dora!
She was so excited for all her gifts!
She enjoyed eating her cake and ice cream while playing tea party in the "Explorer Room". The Explorer Room was suppose to be an obstacle course set up for the little ones. We started with
Puzzle Bridge
. I used her bridge slide and decorated it with cut out felt puzzle pieces. They really enjoyed that. Next was
Butterfly Forest
. I used a inflatable ball pit and covered it with a green felt sheet. I attached butterflies to the sheet. Finally, there was the
Castle
, which I used her doll house. The enjoyed the Puzzle Bridge the most!
It was so much fun!
Party favors!
I started planning
Bella's second birthday party
early this year... real really, like
4
months. I had a lot of ideas and didn't want to be overwhelmed at the last minute.
In preparation for the party, I created these a
DORAble explorer backpacks
! They fit on my daughter perfectly! I created one for every child attending as a party favor goody bag.
I created the whole thing with felt. I used the
to create the facial details. I designed the shape and straps myself on a piece of paper.
I hope the kids get a kick out of them!
