Tamar, of Tamar Invitations, has already designed several of our party printables and decorations...  Alice In Wonderland Birthday Party and Zach's Super Hero Birthday Party.  The printables and invitations are always adorable, Tamar delivered super cute Hello Kitty printables this time as well.  We always love her work.

To create the shields for pinning, I simple printed out extra shields from the place card holders she designed!  And this time I was sure to use double stick tape...  But my tape was a little too strong, once it...

I really wish I could take credit for these delicious cupcakes, but alas, they are the result of the talented baking ability of Lindsey, the owner of Violet & Vanille Cake Shoppe in Connecticut AND imagination of Andrew...      I contacted Lindsey, of Violet & Vanille Cake Shoppe, sharing with her the Super Hero Birthday Party theme...  And Lindsey got off to planning and designing the adorable hand cut super hero shields.      After a few days, Andrew asked how the planning was coming along; I told him about the delicious flavors and mouth watering fillings Lindsey offers...  like peanut butter...
