A cupcake for Shelby

Carey over at Chicory Nits has set up a new blog 'Softies for Shelby' to cheer up Shelby.
Shelby is the daughter of Lori (an incredibly talented miniaturist) who hosts the blog 'Oh Mini Of Mine'. Shelby has kidney failure and a host of other medical challenges, lately she is in pain due to a fractured femur.

Liberty and I decided a cupcake would be a good thing to make. So I invented something quick and easy!

We had a friend's 13 year old daughter here last night and she was thrilled to be making a cucpake to take home. Liberty was happy to choose all the colours for hers and very happy that is was made so quickly...just the sort of thing you need in the school holidays!

Pop over to the Softies for Shelby blog if you'd like to send something to help cheer up Shelby!
