Cupcakey goodness in the mail!

I had a wonderful surprise when I opened our mailbox the other day. A little 'package of goodness' from Saucy.
Saucy has a blog full of fun called 'Saucy's Sprinkles', she showed some of these pretty cards on her blog and said they were available at 'Michaels'. The artwork on the cards is by Jenny and Aaron (I LOVE their work). As there is no Michaels here in NZ Saucy sent this package full of GORGEOUS surprises to me!!
We'd both given up all hope of them arriving as the package took almost 3 months to get here from Canada! (Sound familiar Debra?)
I have big plans for using some of these little pretties in the 'cupcake corner' of my kitchen.

Thank you Saucy, you made our day!
Liberty has been drawing cupcakes ever since your package arrived, this is my favourite one. There is a little beret on the left and that's a bicycle going up the side of the frosting because she saw the 'tour de France' on the news last week and of course the Eiffel tower.

Now I have to make a few dozen real cupcakes...there's a Carnival party happening here in the weekend!

Ah, yes, the world needs more cupcakes!

Mercedes, I have a bunch of those fun cupcake prints. They sold out at our Michael's right away. I got some and I haven't seen any there since. What a wonderful surprise for you. Liberty's cupcake is awesome. I still hope my missing package will show up. Will be sending this new one in a couple days. Hugs~ Kim

How sweet of Saucy-- I love her blog so much. It's one of the first blogs I ever discovered, and I've been reading faithfully ever since! She's amazing!
Love the cupcake fun-- I'm hoarding my stash that I found at Michaels. Kim's right, they sold out pretty fast. I bought a "Stay Calm and Have a Cupcake" print direct from Jenny & Aaron, and because they were so busy and running late, they sent me a free signed cupcake print to frame-- so sweet! I'm still looking for just the right frame, and then I'm hanging it on the wall in my kitchen.
Oh! I loooove Liberty's fabulous drawing-- you have quite the artist there!
Hugs,
Jill
