Blues Clues Inspired Birthday Party

My niece Gwen had a Blue Clue's inspired birthday party this weekend. I styled the dessert table & favors for the party. Gwen has been in love with Blues Clues for the past few months. Even though there isn't any new episodes on TV, Nick Jr still plays re-runs all the time.

First we found the invitation on etsy that my sister loved. It's made by Fine Line Stationary. We went with those colors for the party instead of the original blue, red, and yellow colors.

I created this house for the center of the table. I used a cardboard box and painted it to look just like the one on the show. I had a little banner at the top that said "Happy Birthday Gwen.".
I put marshmallows on a stick, dipped them in pink chocolate candy melts, and then colored sprinkles. The kids were loving these!

I made all the printables for the party including this "Gwen" banner that I hung above the dessert table.

I made the cake myself for the party. I made a couple of the popular characters from the show out of fondant to put on the cake. I had three layers of different colored cakes for the bottom, and the top of the cake was two different colors as well.

These gumball machines were one of the favors for the kids to take home with them.

Instead of the "Handy Dandy Notebook" from the show, I created these Handy Dandy Coloring Books for the kids to take home. I add one large crayon to each of the books. They were put in clear bags and tied off with a "thank you" tag.

I used a few different coloring pages to fill the book

This was the last page of the book

There is the birthday girl having a cupcake on her special day. She is such a doll!

Is this not the cutest picture ever? She is listening to everyone signing to her getting ready to blow out the cake!
