Any suggestions? I'm broke but creative. I'll think of something but it'd be nice to get a fresh perspective. The ultimate goal is to have fun!

How about a cupcake?
It is simple to make using things around the house.
You take an old lamp shade, you can spray paint it silver/grey to resemble aluminum foil. Turn it upside down, the top should be the closest to your daughters feet. Use suspenders to hold it up or put few holes in and put some yarn or ribbon through to keep it up. Use some fabric that you have to Hot glue to the shade around the rim as your icing. Remember to cut holes for head and arms. She can wear a matching colored shirt under this. Cut up and old shirt or something you have laying around into sprinkle shapes and hot glue them onto the fabric. If you would like to make a hat you can always use some of the "icing" fabric and roll it outwards. Also put some sprinkles on it and maybe paint a Styrofoam ball red as cherry and use a red pipe cleaner to stick in the top of the ball as the cherry and stem. Glue this onto the top of the hat.
How about a cute lil layered cake?
Use a few circular hat boxes. Using two different sizes, cut the bottom out of the smaller one and glue it on top of the larger one. Cut a hole out for each arm in the smaller one, and for the head, through to the second one. You can Glue some felt or fabric onto them and decorations such as gems and plastic pearls (as decor) and ribbon around the edges. Use a small top hat, and fabric it. Use your ribbon to trim the edges. In the verytop you can make a hole for a battery operated flameless candle. The one that appears to look like a candle, but only runs off batteries.
How about a pillsbury dough girl?
You can simply cut out one of the pillsbury graphics from a product and glue it onto a oval shaped blue felt/or fabric.Glue this onto a white chef hat and use a sold white onesie, and white gloves if you wish. Put a few wooden spatulas into her hands and what a cutie.
How about a Nun?
Use a long sleeve White shirt. Pair this under a black jumper. Use a white piece of cloth over a headband that can be placed at the hairline, with black fabric that is shoulder length sewed/glued onto it. You can pair this with a black rosary.
How about Maggie Simpson from the Simpsons?
Use a footless Blue sleeping bag (like a sleeper). To make the hair, use a baby hat, cut pieces of sponge, and glue. You can use yellow colored fabric to cover the sponge into a pointy mountain shapes. Glue or sew these onto the yellow hat. Next add a blue bow to the hair and use a red signature maggie pacifier (simply a red pacifier) if your baby is still into paciefiers.
How about Wizard of Oz's Dorothy?
Use one of her blue polka dot dresses/jumper, if you dont have a polka dotted one, then cut some white dots out, you can use double stick tape if you dont want to glue it to attatch it to the dress. If you dont have one, then find a blue apron. Pair a white 3/4 sleeve shirt under this dress. Use some white knee highs or socks and signature red shoes. Part her hair, and either braid it and tie blue ribbon on both sides, or just part it and tie it off on both sides. Let her use a small wicker basket and place one of her stuffed dogs in it and you have a cute/easy and fun costume.
If she has any pageant style dresses you can always make her a sash and use a crown and let her go as a "Little Miss...."
Cheerleader?
Choose one of your favorite teams and use a pleated skirt and long sleeve turtle neck onesie and borrow some pom poms that match from a friend or some she may have (tip- if she has a bike-trike- sometimes they come with this on the handles). Put her hair up in a pony tail and use panty hose and tennis shoes.
If these dont help, I am brainstorming for a few more ideas now.
Good Luck.
