Resources I used:

~ red carpet – red material from JoAnn’s Fabrics {currently going out of business in Dublin, but relocating!!}

~ cupcake decorating – ideas inspired by my cupcake making class, Let’em Eat Cake in Livermore

~ meyer lemons – my tree in the backyard!!!

~ Oscar decor – idea from Hostess with the Mostess; btw, I did try the White Lady Martini, and it is GOOD!!!

~ Oscar bingo – How About Orange blogsite

~ Oscar ballet - The Academy of Motion Pictures Website

~ party supplies – Party City in Dublin

~ on-line invites – My Punchbowl
