TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK CUPCAKES

I love teachers.  My kid's have the best ones!  And, I appreciate teachers because it is a job I could never, ever do.  They have the patience of a saint.  This year I made Blueberry Swirl, Strawberry Swirl (pie filling swirled into white batter), white almond, chocolate overload, Reese and Unicorn Bubblegum.  They were so fun and I was happy to treat such a deserving group. 

Easter Lipbalm Cards

Easter is so much fun.  Spring is in the air, baby bunnies & birds, egg hunts - love it!  I made these simple but cute cards for my friends using the Stampin Up Basket Bunch stamp set and Basket Builder framelits along with the MFT Die-namics Lip Balm Window & Frame die set.  The fun Peeps Lip Balm I bought at the Five Below store that just opened near me. 

GREAT WEEKEND FOR BAKING

Oh my gosh you guys - I had some great orders for this weekend.  I got to do Strawberry swirl and vanilla Moana cupcakes for a sweet girl's birthday, I had pink & blue smash cakes for twin's first birthday and I had strawberry and chocolate cupcakes for another little girl's first birthday.  It was busy but so fun.

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!

I'm not Irish, but I love St. Patrick's Day.  I especially love to make cupcakes for the occasion, my favorite being the Irish Car Bomb.  It's a Chocolate Guiness Stout cake with a Jameson Irish Whiskey Ganache and Bailey's Irish Cream Frosting.  Yummy - but it is an adult only cupcake. 

BAKING-YAY!!!  I love to bake, especially cupcakes and this is the beginning of my busy season, I'm so excited.  This past week I did Cookies-n-cream, carrot cake, blueberry swirl and white chocolate macadamia nut.

Yellow Daisy Birthday Card

The color yellow, for me, is a happy color.  It reminds me of sunny days, daffodils and smiley faces.  This daisy happy birthday card just had to be in yellow.  All Stampin Up products

Pet Sympathy Card

No one likes making sympathy cards, but sometimes they are necessary.  My sweet niece & her hubby lost their dog of 14+ years.  I made this card and got her this garden stone.
