Cupcake Resolution

By on Sunday, January 16th, 2011

I know most people made their resolutions a little over two weeks ago but I just came across this resolution which cupcake lovers will appreciate.  Emily from the SCOOP made her first resolution for 2011 to be to eat more cupcakes. To kick off her resolution she stopped by Sprinkle’s new Chicago location. I like this idea as opposed to all the lose weight, get fit, eat a less sugary diet because it focuses on what makes you happy.  Also, it’s a lot easier to keep this resolution!

Adorable Cupcake Clothing

By on Sunday, January 16th, 2011

The one really sad thing about growing up, is that you don’t look ‘too cute to boot’ in clothes like this anymore!  I love cupcake clothing for my little girl, but even she is starting to grow out of the super cute look and into the more sassy attire. Though she is still a cupcake lover.. to eat that is!

This gorgeous little top and skirt combo is from Etsy seller Petit Lyons, but all her cupcake attire is displayed on Flickr.

Makes me feel like getting ‘needle and thread’ thrifty again!

Vintage Peace Love and Cupcake Necklace

It is no surprise to anyone that I love Etsy and cupcakes. I also love anything vintage and am a hippie at heart. So I think I have found the perfect necklace on Etsy(of course)  from Chocolate Silver Designs.

Cupcake Stamps

I came across My Favorite Things because one of my favorite artists, Stephanie Fizer has created illustrations for them, like these really cute robots.  My Favorite Things is a website that sells clear stamps and while looking around on the site I noticed quite a few cupcake stamps.  Most of the stamps are pretty girly looking like a bunny named Flopsey holding a cupcake or a little girl hugging a cupcake (each shown above).  The prices for the stamps range in price from $9.00-11.00.

Additionally, I really like the cupcake card template which features the à la modes birthday girl stamp. It’s a downloadable file that costs $1.95.

Cupcake tattoo alight

By on Saturday, January 15th, 2011

This cupcake tattoo is from Revolution Ink.  You may remember that we featured them last week with the story of Angie, and the remembrance of her through the ongoing design of bright, colorful and unique cupcakes.

I had so many amazing photos and gorgeous ideas I just couldn’t fit them all into the one post, so today I thought I would show you another one of those cupcake tattoos.

I love the big lick of flame on top of this cupcake, but more than the tattoo itself, I love this really edgy and beautiful photograph below.  It really shows the fantastic colors of the cupcake tattoo on this man’s arm.

You Are the Icing on My Cupcake Sign

How often do we hear someone say, “You are the icing on my cupcake!”? Well if you do not hear it enough you then purchase this sign from Funki Folk Art’s Etsy store and hear(or see) it every day. I love the pink on the edges and the vintage feel to the sign.

Crate & Barrel Cupcake Party Plate

By on Friday, January 14th, 2011

Crate & Barrel is one of my favorite stores for home goods.  While at the mall I notice Crate & Barrel has new cupcake party plates.  They are $4.95 each and are a 6 inch square.  I love the bright colors, they’re great cheery plates for cold January days!
