Cup cake craft.


Today is all about the cupcakes for tomorrow's party.
Well actually that is not quite true. Today Bren and Indi are at a farmers' market in Melbourne, Jazzy is at a party and Pepper is asleep and it is all about cupcakes for me.

Honestly, sometimes I wonder if this is the real reason I had kids. How else could I justify spending all this time dedicated to the glorious cupcake?

I'm cutting stencils and trying to mix the perfect lolly pink.




I'm printing on goody bags.

The old mixing machine is getting a bit of a work out.

And I'm wrapping and drawing and planning.

Maybe when the girls come home later this afternoon I will let them paint the cupcake piniata, maybe. How cool is that piniata! The lovely Doily Steph made it the other day and I'm still not sure I'm going to be able to allow it to be smashed.

I hope you get a bit of cupcakey action this weekend.

ps. Have you entered my giveaway yet?

    I can't wait to see the finished results of this party. When I have kids I hope I have a little girl so I can have a cupcake party. It is such a cute idea. I love the goody bags you printed too.

    That piniata is very cool indeed. (You have given me an idea for soon-to-be Master 3's birthday later this month!) I hope we get to see a a photo of it, when its painted (before it gets whacked with a stick, that is!)

Thanks so much for stopping by...

I do read every single comment you leave and appreciate it very much, but I should let you know that I can be a wee bit on the useless side when replying to comments, that's just me, everyday life sometimes gets in the way....so I'll apologise now, just in case.
