Twilight Game Night

So Twilight Game Night came and went last week... What a great time! I spent a lot of time and effort to make decorations, favors and other extras but it was a TOTAL blast and well worth it to make it memorable. Here are some pics of what went down and how I set it up...

Some table decorations above...

And of course we had cupcakes... And are there any other cupcakes to have at Twilight Game Night other than Red Velvet? No way... The batter was amazingly red. It really did look like blood. (Ew.) They retained the color well even after baking. Here's the easy recipe I used (click here). The toppers were fun to make. Lots of Twilight images to be found on the internet and then I used my portable Slice machine to cut out elegant shapes to adhere the circle photos to. Yes, I'm Craft Loco... There are image on the back too. It's all in the details! Also, please note the Edward super-intense menu cards!

Had to add text to this one... This is Mel rocking her Bella inspired hand knit mittens. She's a yarn goddess!

These are pics of us playing the Scene It Deluxe Twilight Game... Very fancy and highly recommended! After we figured out all the rules we got things rolling and our competitive stripes started to show.

Here is what we were all doing battle to possess! This is a crown that I made out of black flexible foam and I almost passed out when I found the sparkle foam at the craft store. Does it get more perfect?! The sparkle foam had and adhesive backing so it was super easy and fun to use. Add glitter glue, acrylic gems and Twilight images a plent and viola! A crown that any Twi-Hard would be proud to wear. :)

Another view of the crown and the bookmark that I gave as ONE of the favors. I'll get more images of this later as I plan to sell them on Etsy. There are fun and perfect for ladies on Team Edward... You'll see.

Here we are! Everyone of us middle aged and loving teenage romance with vampires! Love the series... If you need to escape I would highly recommend reading the Twilight Saga books.
A special thank you to Amanda (one of the redheads!) for taking all the photos since I was so occupied. You can check out her and her husband's photography business at:
