A glorious Easter birthday

As promised I am back with some photos of Jack's 2nd birthday on Easter Sunday.
 We could not have had more perfect weather, it was like a hot summer's day and we were able to enjoy his birthday lunch outside in the garden.
He adores everything Brio; trains, diggers, boats..anything he can wheel along the track. As he also lives at the seaside I decided to make his cake with this theme in mind. I made a fondant icing Number 2 into a road and created a sea scene complete with lifeguard, buoys for his 2 candles and a whale.
I then added the Brio vehicles;
Here is the whale (which Jack named Tiddler!)
and the coast guard (of course)
Jack really seemed fascinated looking at it...and we all sang him Happy Birthday in the sunshine.
His Mummy and Daisy also made some gorgeous matching cupcakes.




He blew out his candles
and then it was time to get those vehicles moving.


and of course cutting the cake and making a wish with Mummy

My card today is not Jack's card as I forgot to photograph that one but one with a lovely STAMPlorations quote that is so perfect for our darling Jack. It is for sale at Dotty's Teahouse, Carshalton, SM5 2AE
The background is embossed using a wood embossing folder, the dies in my favoruite Tim Hollz world die and I added some stars too. 

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges;

Bye for now,
