Recipe Card {No Bake Nutella Cheesecake}

Just in time for Mother's Day, our new recipe card printables. We just love desserts, so we thought we should share our favorites with all of our sweet fans and readers. These recipes are from other sources, but as a part of our new diet we will taste them all before we share them with you. Our first recipe card is the "No Bake Nutella Cheesecake". This tastes and looks amazing. Stay tuned for more recipe cards that we made for you to print and save! We will be posting recipe cards in Arabic soon.

Putting a Smile on Children's Faces

Children deserve to have a happy childhood, no matter where they are. We are lucky enough to have a job that allows us to put smiles on peoples' faces with every party we throw and gift we create. This week we got the opportunity to place those extra smiles on some children's faces through being a sponsor of Rifqn. The event took place at the SOS Children's Village in Bethlehem, a place dedicated to helping children who are orphaned or abandoned. We made our chocolate lollipops in different shapes that the children would like. This is the least we could do to make this day a special day for these children. It's really nice to know that there are people who are dedicating their time and putting so much effort to make sure children are happy. Thank you so much Rifqn for letting us be a part of this, we wish you the best in your upcoming events!

Some shapes that we made were new. Some were mustaches, smiley faces, hearts, princess crowns, cupcakes, and balloons.

Real Madrid Football-Soccer Cupcakes

Whether you are a Real Madrid fan or not, you've got to love these cupcakes. We made these cupcakes for a boy who loves this team. We personalized some of the toppers using the birthday boy's age and name. This could be adjusted to any team colors that you like. This theme is perfect for any age. Check out this link here for the previous parties we threw for adults. Happy 12th birthday Fadi! 

Cupcake Shaped Cookies Bouquet

Cupcake bouquets are one of the sweetest gifts that you could give to your family or friends. For this bouquet, we made cookies shaped as cupcakes and added a cupcake shaped card to it. It could work as a birthday gift or just to tell someone that they are so sweet! You could check out our previous cupcake themed gifts here.

Personalized Name Frames

This is a perfect gift for someone who likes pictures, frames, and anything that's personalized. It could work as a gift for an anniversary, birthday, or any other occasion. It would look great in any frame size and color. Personalized frames are a great way of bringing back fun memories with your friends and family. You could check out more of our previous frames here.

This frame is made up of two names and a heart. I added many pictures in the backgrounds and as the letters.

Pirate Themed Keychain Favors

A pirate themed party is a fun theme for a boy's birthday. These are some keychains that we made for a pirate themed party. The options of favors for a pirate party are endless! We made some keychains using a girl pirate for the girls, and a boy pirate for the boys. The back side of the keychain had a little thank you message from the birthday boy. Happy 6th birthday Yousef!

Tangled Themed Party Decorations and Favors

This is such a cute theme and a fun movie. Each girl has to have at least one princess themed party. We made some decorations, cookies, and favors for Jana's 7th birthday. The colors we used were purple and yellow, the perfect color combination for a Tangled/ Rapunzel themed birthday. Every girl who loves this movie is going to love a birthday party like this one. Happy birthday Jana!

Monopoly Game Night Birthday

It just wouldn't have made any sense if we didn't throw the most amazing birthday party for the person that is always by my side and supporting me in everything that I am doing. It was his birthday that started this blog, so this was my way of showing him that I appreciate it. Not only is he the best investor, my best friend, my partner in crime, but he is the person I am lucky enough to spend the rest of my life with. It was so tough keeping this all a secret and not telling him anything, I feel so much better now! To surprise him and celebrate his special day I brought some of his closest friends all together. Let's just say he was speechless!

The theme was a Monopoly game night since he loves playing board games. I decided to make the decorations based on the Monopoly board game since everyone is familiar with it. We used Monopoly money, the frames and instructions were like the Monopoly "Chance" and "Community Chest" cards. I added a lot of hats, mustaches, and bows to match Mr. Monopoly or Rich Uncle Pennybags. There were decorations, a lot of competitive games, sweets, pizza, food, favors, and gifts for the birthday boy and even the winners! I love you Yazan and happy early birthday! Hope you enjoyed your Yazanopoly game night birthday party!

This was the invitation I made and sent to all of the guests.  

Check out the slideshow below for all of the pictures!

A game night theme is not complete without a game night! We divided the guests into 4 teams and let them compete against each other in funny games.

There were 5 different games that the teams played. I made 5 different frames with a question mark like the chance cards on one side and instructions on the other.

Game #1: The team that finds the most differences between the pictures wins a point!

Game #2: One player from each team had to try to put 6 die on a popsicle stick. The first team to do so wins a point.

Game #3: A player from each team had to figure out the type of chocolate that was in the jar. First team to do so wins a point.

Game #4: A player from each team had to put 4 penne in a spaghetti noodle using only their mouth.

Game #5: Ping pong game on the Playstation Move.

I made a scoreboard to keep track of each team's progress.

Congratulations to the red team!
