Anouk's Princess Party!

I recently made a Princess Belle cake for our very good friends little girl, Anouk who was turning 4! It was so much fun to make this cake and the look on the birthday girls face was all I needed to say thanks (actually I was also pretty excited to hear another little girl, also 4 ask her mum where was the cake? so I thought I had done my job well) I topped off the cake with some chocolate cupcakes with little daisy toppers in red and pink and finished with some shimmer powder which suited the party theme beautifully.

Anouk made a very cute 4 year old and was super cute in her beautiful Musketeer dress (with rip off cape) that her mum Kate lovingly made for her (it really was amazing, with the actual insignia from the movie and all!)

The party decorations looked lovely and the cute tissue pom poms hanging from the frangipanni tree added a beautiful touch to the look.

and the food looked amazing too. Fairy bread (of course) little gingerbread biscuits, sandwiches and chocolate and freckle covered strawberries (which the Nana's were a bit horrified over ;)

Even my little dinosaur and Spider man had a great day, along with Anouks super cute little brother Oscar!

Can't wait to see what Anouk wants for her 5th birthday

Sunday Shadow Shot #42

Well what a weekend we had last weekend. We finally visited the famous Australia Zoo and had a fantastic time. A favorite for Sax was the Kangaroos (this one had a little joey in her pouch)... But he also had a really great time overall as did we all, he even got to try his first ice cream in a cone which he thoroughly enjoyed ;) I would highly recommend anyone who is in the area going for a look

We also went to a good friend's little girls birthday party. Anouk turned 3rd last Saturday, so hard to believe 3 years have passed since we visited that tiny little bundle,but it was so lovely to see her and Sax playing in the backyard with the neighbourhood kids.

I even got the chance to test out some of my cake decorating course skills by making some decorations for the Dora the Explorer Birthday Cake that Kate made.

As always, make sure you go and checkout some of the other amazing Shadow Shots over at Hey Harriets and don't forget to visit the BrisStyle Blog as 2 more fantastic giveaways go up for offer on August 1st

Have a happy week, Bel xx

Shadow Shot Sunday #31

Hi All
Here's a pic I took a few weeks ago at the wonderful Southbank Parklands swimming area. It is of Sax and his good friend Anouk having a wander after they had been swimming? I wish I was a bit closer to have heard what there conversation was about ;) I am sure Sax was trying to persuade Nouka to go and chase birds in the garden...

Have a happy week everyone, Bel x
