Doctor Who / Van Gogh Birthday Cake

The Van Gogh Starry Night TARDIS birthday cake I made for a friend.

Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Doctor Who Wallpaper

I needed a Christmas-y Doctor Who wallpaper for my computer monitors at work. In New Orleans, it just doesn't feel like Christmas right now. So here's a quick wallpaper I threw together to get you in the holiday spirit!

And for your Facebook cover photo:

Have a Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Christmas!

Best BFF ever!

After Alex gave me this early Christmas present of a glass TARDIS ornament, I decided to go ahead with a Doctor Who themed Christmas Tree this year. We started on Weeping Angel tree toppers (still in progress), inspired by this tutorial by Cynthia at The Creative Crossing. I'll post pictures of those once they're finished.

Since I only had time to make a few ornaments, I filled up the rest of the tree with "TARDIS Blue" glass ornaments, stuck random doctor who toys into the tree (like my blue dalek, wind-up weeping angel, and 11th doctor sonic screwdriver) and then topped off the tree with a fez and a bowtie!

Here are a couple of the ornaments I made. The adipose are made of Sculpey and the Van Gogh TARDIS exploding is decoupaged onto a glass ornament. After being approached about selling the adipose ornaments, I'm trying to get an annual Doctor Who Handmade Ornament Swap going on to not only build up my Whovian ornament collection, but also to spread the crafty cheer to those looking to make their tree a bit more wibbly-wobbly or timey-wimey. Let me know if you're interested!

Dragon*Con 2012 adventures

With Slvester McCoy, the seventh doctor!

Is it time for Dragon*Con again, yet??!? I'm anxious for next year. Alex and I managed to pull together my Dalek dress to go with her TARDIS dress for the con this year. I made these pill box hats from sheets of felt and recruited the help of my dad to figure out lighting. They came out super cute and I'm excited to add to the costumes and keep them in cosplay rotation. We also had some female doctor who costumes, but those were way too hot and didn't last long in Labor Day Atlanta heat... Next costume project: classy femme Boba Fett!

Here are some of my favorite pictures from Dragon*Con weekend. I loved meeting so many great and interesting people! Never a dull moment!

Doctor Who and Ninja Themed Surprise Party!

The Ninjas Have The TARDIS

Ninja 3 layer cake with homemade fondant, marshmallow adipose, TARDIS pinata, and ninja cake pops!

This post is way overdue. 

My friend, Matt, came to me to help him give his girlfriend, Sam, a memorable birthday party. Her birthday is July 4th, and Matt said that she never has a birthday party on her birthday. She's a big Doctor Who fan and loves ninjas, so we decided to go with a Doctor Who and ninja themed surprise party. Alex and I worked on coming up with different themed snacks and decorations (Marshmallow adipose, ninja cake pops, a ninja face cake, TARDIS banner and star confetti) and Matt supplied us with "TARDIS blue" tableware and streamers. Matt also made a TARDIS pinata, Doctor Who buttons, and a pin-the-eyestalk-on-the-Dalek game! It was great! And so much fun! I will post a download for the TARDIS birthday banner later!
