You can run this through any printer with any image (*even pictures*) to make your own magnets or jewelry!

Cupcake time!

5.21.2009

I love cupcakes. You know that by now right? Okay up for your judgment is a bunch of cupcakes made by my daughter and me. :)
                           
First we have a bag with a fleece cupcake hand sewn on. While you cannot see the stitching detail, I htink you get a good idea. I'm thinking of printing some thing on the bag too... like "anytime is a good imte for cupcakes!" or something like that. Any ideas?
                
We also have a cool cupcake invitation that I made using my SCAL program and my Cricut. I have the free svg file on my other blog: Free SVGs. I'm going to use those for my little girl's cupcake birthday party. All the kids are going to get to decorate thier own cupcakes. It'll be messy but fun.
             
Lastly, there are cupcake earrings! Yes that is shrinky dink. I never did get over using that stuff as a child. I love it. I can't help myself. Just makeyou some cute cupcakes on thier paper, punch a hole and bake. We added red beads for cherries.
                            
Now it's time for you to tell me what your favorite cupcake project is. :) Mine are the earrings. My daughter's favorite is in invitation. 
                       

Lyndzie's Wedding Cake & Centerpeices

5.02.2009

This wedding cake was huge. The ribbon is satin and the draongflies (in the middle of the bows) are pins. The bride loved it! I was so happy that she was pleased. :) The monogram topper was a perfect fit. Click to see the pictures larger.
                       
The centerpeices were interesting. They are submerged gerbera dasies. In case you have never tried to sink a daisy let me just tell you, it's a challenge. They like to float. We used a little wire though each stem and added a fishing weight (hidden by the rocks in the bottom of each vase) to submerge each daisy.
        
I have missed blogging. I can't wait to get back in the swing of crafting. Does anyone have any new projects that were fun to try?
