Sweet Lil' Cupcake Birthday Party
I've decided to place this Cupcake Birthday Party in my 1st Birthday list. But don't let that stop you from using this adorable birthday theme
for any age.
It would be great for any Birthday from 1 to 99. Cupcakes, balloons, and birthday cakes can be used for any age. They're universal.
Sometimes I am stuck on what theme to use for a party. That's when the tried and true win the day. I used a balloon theme just this year.
It makes your job so much easier. Plus there are so many cute designs now, that you can usually have whatever color scheme you want.
Cupcake Birthday Party Invitations
Here's an adorable Cupcake invitation. It's on my homemade birthday card page, but you can change the info inside to include all your party information.
For full instructions on this card, just click on the picture. It will take you to the instruction page.
Another cute idea is to dress your little one in a cute outfit with cupcakes on it, or it can just be the colors of your party.
Look at some of the ideas on my Homemade Birthday Cards page.
If you are handing out the invites personally, you can make or purchase pretty cupcakes. Place them in elegant little boxes with a gorgeous ribbon.
Add your party info on a piece of colored cardstock. Hot glue onto a toothpick and place in the cupcake.
Cupcake Birthday Party Costumes
Dress your little one in an outfit that has cupcakes on it. You can make cupcakes out of felt and pin on a coordinating outfit.
Supply felt cupcakes for all the guests, or make cute cupcake hats. You'll want a white rim, and a puffy cap with a red pom-pom for a cherry.
Cupcake Birthday Party Decorations
Line the sidewalk with large cupcakes. Make them out of thick posterboard. Hot glue a garden stake on the back and place in the ground.
You can use coloring books for inspiration.
Tie a balloon bouquet on the mailbox.
Your colors for this party will vary. It all depends on what Cupcake party supplies that you choose to go with.
Purchase a
Wire Cupcake Holder Stand
for your cupcake centerpiece. Place pretty cupcakes in it.
Hang ribbon or streamers and cupcake ornaments from the chandelier.
You can make your own little cupcake ornaments from scrapbook supplies. Tie with a pretty ribbon.
Make a balloon bouquet with one cupcake mylar balloon and some colored latex balloons. Tie to a weight and place in a cupcake giftbag.
Finish with coordinating tissue paper.
Sprinkle cupcake confetti on the table.
I like to place all the party supplies on the table. It adds color and visual interest.

liner.
Bake a cake in a bowl. You'll want it to be a little bit bigger that your cake plate so that it will hang over and look like the top
of a cupcake.
Let the cake cool and then place on your cake plate. Ice and decorate to match your color scheme.
You could also just do a bunch of cupcakes. All flavors. And place
