In the fall I received a Silhouette Portrait machine and was so excited but it was right as we began the remodeling of my office/craft room and the box got put into storage. Then when it came to planning out Sawyer's Pirate Themed Birthday Party I knew my Silhouette would be a big help and went searching for it. I have a Prepaid Subscription to the Design Store which I love because whenever … [Read more...]

1st Birthday Themes- HELP!

I was a little annoyed because I did a photo cake and they … [Read more...]

Plus, he wanted Mickey Mouse cupcakes! I know they aren't no Martha Stewart cupcakes, but he was happy! I've never made my own frosting before. I used the recipe on the back of the Hershey Cocoa. As you can see … [Read more...]
