Cute idea for a Summer Party for Kids-Cute Stuff!

Well, there's still time for a Summer Party, isn't there?  I think so....I loved the invitation (use your child's photo) and the cute submarine on the straw but most of all I loved the waves on top of the cupcake. Easy to make!

You use a bendy straw for the invitation and the submarine. and leaf cutouts for the waves. 

You're going to want a lei for everyone too. Fiskars has a flower paper punch that would work great for this project. Just thread a flower and then a small piece of straw and you're done!

Doesn't that look easy and so many pretty colors.

Add some paper flowers to the food and cake stand too

Send your guests home with something yummy and cute
