Puppy Love
June 18, 2012
My kids are BIG Angry Bird’s fans. So it wasn’t surprising that my son wanted a Angry Bird’s Birthday party this year. Above is the invitation I made using some Stampin’ Up punches.
For the main part of the party- since these are going to be 8 & 9 year olds, we’re going to have them stack empty boxes, and place the cans painted like pigs that I gave the kids for Christmas last year in random places.
I bought some bouncy balls at the store- $2.50 for the big red ones and $1.50 for the small blue ones. Then we painted the angry bird faces on them for the kids to throw at the boxes.
For the goodie bags I used some Stampin’ Up! punches and made a pig bag topper. Inside the bag I put a crush soda “crush the pigs!” a bag of gummy worms, and a angry birds sticker.
Because I was short on prep time for this party I ordered cupcakes to be made, but then got a call in the morning from the bakery that they didn’t get the chocolate cake mix in and since that’s what the birthday boy had his heart set on I ended up buying the decorations from the store and made the cupcakes myself. The rings and cake decorations cost $6, so it did save money to make them myself and they still looked just as cute (and I think tasted better) So I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate-coconut frosting.
We also blew up some green balloons and drew a pig face on them, then had the kids see who could pop them using only their knees. I didn’t get a picture of this though!
