Panda-monium


CWD Kids got me again!  

My 5 year old wants a "panda" themed birthday (not till June, but we are planners!).  She likes panda bears, and when she saw these cupcakes, it was all over:

photograph and fabulous idea from Karen Tack & Alan Richardson's amazing book Hello, Cupcake!

So, I am going to make these and somehow pull off a Panda Bear Party.  

Anyway, I had been eyeing some cute little brother/sister panda outfits for party-wear in the CWD Kids catalog, so when they sent me a 15% off coupon code today (CFWSAV good through 4/13), I surfed on over to their site and found that a couple of the outfits had already been marked down and the code is good for sale items too.  So... these cuties are on their way!

And one more thing... she's going to love this - how cute!

    This book is wonderful! If you haven't seen it and like cupcakes, take a look... easy instructions for making just about everything... sharks, penguins, circus theme, garden, snowmen... amazing!

  7. Hi,

    I popped over to say HI!

    The cupcakes are so cute! You are going to have fun planning this party! It would be neat to use bamboo flatware and plates (Panda's favorite food). My friends carried in their shop at one time these cute little bright asian coin purses that not only would make a great party favor, but placecard holders. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

    Thanks!

    Have a golden weekend! xoxo
