Betty Crocker´s “Bake Life Sweeter” Birthday in a Box *Giveaway*

Samantha’s 7th Birthday is on Sunday (Jan. 10th). First off I cna not believe that she is turning SEVEN!!! (going on 14). Saturday the 9th we are having a birthday party for her and she has invited all her little girl friends from school. 

I have put off planning her party and am very glad that Betty Crocker has birthday party planning ideas on the Betty Crocker´s website, www.BettyCrocker.com.

This year we are not doing a “theme” but more of a girlie party! A party for the girls to act like girls, have fun and be creative.

This is the invitation I made for her party.

I am seriously thankful that BettyCrocker.com has all my party-planning needs, including instructional videos, shopping lists, party activities and games, and even invitations that can be printed from my home computer! There´s a wide variety of great party themes to choose from, including:

> Out of this World Space Party > Train Party
> Firehouse Party > Magical Princess Party
> Under the Sea Mermaid Party > Pandas Forever Party
> Pony Pals Party > Robots Rule Party

Here is a cute video of what Samantha would love to have as her “Dream Birthday”:

After checking out BettyCrocker.com, these are the fun ideas I got for the girls to do!

  • Buy t shirts from craft stores to decorate with puffy paint, glitter paint and glue on rhinestones.
  • Decorate Cupcakes!
  • Send home favorite music CDs with the kids. (Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, anything Disney)

I plan on making Sam the Electric Guitar Cake but in PINK!

hmm, after everything I have said above I guess Sam’s party DOES have a theme “Rock Star!”

NOTE: I will be updating this post with pictures and videos of Sam’s party!

BettyCrocker and MyBlogSpark supplied me with coupons to make the came, a $100 Amex Gift Card for planning the party and a Flip Camera to video the party. Coupons were also supplied for giveaway. 

WIN
ONE winner will receive VIP coupons and all the baking tools they would need to recreate the cake you made for the party.
