Pool Party Cake! One of our parties was a water party, so my daughter chose to have a "pool party" cake with polly fashions on the cake. She loved Polly fashions, so it was super fun for her. We made a super simple sheet cake, covered it with green frosting and piped grass using the grass tip.
The pool is cake covered in fruit roll ups, to imitate the "plastic" pool look. The water in the pool is blue jello. The beach towel is another fruit roll up. The floatie is a gummie ring. The beach ball is a large jawbreaker.
Since the party was all outdoors we decorated sun visors that we had made ourselves out of foam. Each guest decorated their visor with foam stickers.
We then went outside for games like ring tosses and water/bucket/sponge games. Then we had each kid hold their arms out like they were a basketball and the other kids threw waterballoons into the "baskets". Fun and wet!!!!
For decorations we simply wrapped a bandana around a mason jar and put the utencils in it.
One game was pin the badge on the Sheriff. We just colored it ourselves on construction paper. I love these kind of decorations cause they don't cost much at all, and clean up is easy....you just throw them in the garbage. :)
This is the sea turtle fondant cake that I entered in the County Fair 2013. It was sculpted out of rice crispy treats and covered in icing.....then white fondant. Our homemade fondant....marshmallows, powdered sugar and water.....Super Easy!!!! 
I then painted the turtle green, with highlights of yellow. I put some dark brown spots on it's flippers and head. I painted a black dot for the eye and then sculpted an eye lid out of fondant, and painted it.
