Pirate Theme Party....

Next weekend we will celebrate my oldest son Hunter's

7th Birthday!

He has asked for a pirate party

so I have been searching through pinterest for

ideas on how to throw an awesome pirate theme party!

Here is what I have already made 

Birthday Boy!

I made these pirate theme cupcake toppers

from stickers that I found at Target in

the dollar spot marked down to .50!!!

I just stuck them on toothpicks & gave them

a little support in the back

I made this treasure map from

old scrapbook paper that I had laying around

and it happens to be an early map design!!

Love this one!

I had wanted to do water bottle labels but I couldn't find

a free template & I wasn't about to pay $1.00 a label to order them!

I googled how to make a label & found out you can download free

digital scrapbook paper. I did that for the red & white stripes & then

for the skull I just chose some random clip art and printed it in

thumbnail size & glued it to the front of the bottle!

I made this to stick in either hot dogs or

maybe a watermelon...haven't decided yet!

I had tons of skewers laying around

so I took some red card stock cut down to a size I liked

& glued the skull clip art to that as well!

I love these loot bags...

I started with plain red paper sacks

& I had also found these pirate cards in the dollar spot

at Target marked down to .50 in a pack of eight!

I just cut them out of the card & glued them to the front

of the red bags.

This is my sweet boys birthday cake

I hope he loves it!

It's a 9"round White almond vanilla cake

with fondant and buttercream

the chest & pirate man are toys

but the rest is made from fondant/gumpaste

This is Hunter's other birthday cake

I made this one from an 8" round chocolate cake

covered in fondant & decorated with fondant accents

I tried to carve his watermelon like a shark

but this is all I got! (LOL) he liked it anyways

Saw this on pinterest...blue jello, clear solo cups,

orange slices. I added the pirate theme stickers on toothpicks

 that I got at Target for $.50!!

I made my own fruit tray & fruit dip!

then I just stuck some pirate theme clip art

on toothpicks and randomly placed them in the fruit

My silly boy!

Happy birthday Hunter we love you so much!!!!
