I don't do anything hard and 9/10 times I steal my creativity from someone else....., so HERE is the website for the lady bug bows. Super super easy.
For the Cake: I have to thank my wonderful friend Laura for the idea. We used a box cake, but I'm sure if you have more time, patience, and desire than me, you can make a cake from scratch. I baked the cake in a Pyrex bowl so that it looked like a lady bug. (let it cool really well before trying to take the cake out or it won't come out very well. I actually put it in the freezer for a bit). After the cake is cooled, make whip cream frosting with pureed strawberries in it. I used THIS recipe.
Frost the entire cake. Use crushed Oreo to make the head and stripe down the back, put a few Oreo's on for the lady bugs dots, marshmallows for the eyes, and the candles for the antennae. and your done! :) We like fun but easy things that the kids can help with. This is VERY kid friendly. :)
