EASY CARD

I love it when I find an easy card that looks great and that can be customized for different occasions.  This was one of those.  I think I may mass produce more so I can have them on hand when I need them.

GIANT CUPCAKE

I just love making these giant cupcakes.  They are so pretty and once you get the hang of it, fairly simple.  I make the "liner" on the bottom from chocolate, so it gives the cake more stability.  And rosettes are so fun for anytime.  This was for my nephew's wedding.  They loved it.  I even made cream cheese mints to match.  The mints are special because my mom taught me how to make them when I was a little girl.

MOTHER'S DAY CARDS

It was such fun making cards for my sweet mom, mother-in-law and grandma (she's 101 btw).  All supplies I used for these were 'Stampin Up.

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. 

THANKSGIVING 2018

This year has just flown by.  Thanksgiving was fun.  I made some adorable turkey candy favors and yummy treats.
