Diaper Cake

Elisha's, my daughter-in-law, baby shower is today. I didn't want to post these pictures too soon because I wanted everything to be a surprise for her at the baby shower. Anyways, I decided to make a diaper cake . . . my first one.

So I must admit I'm very proud of my work and thought it turned out beautiful. Here is the progression of my project.

Bottom tier.

Moving on to the next tier.

Third tier and finally fourth tier.

The bows is actually the back side of the cake. I think it's important to look nice from all angles, right?

I also made the flowers on the cake out of tissue paper.

And finally, here it is. It took a couple hours because if you know me everything has to be perfect. So I had to make sure I aligned the diapers so they were evenly spaced. Otherwise it would have driven me crazy. I know OCD and proud of it.

Here are the invitations. The theme is obviously the pitter patter of baby's feet. Did you notice the baby feet suckers on the cake? So cute!

The thank you cards.

I love hosting parties especially putting all the pieces together. I'm just praying everything else turns out and everyone has a good time. Can't wait!
