Mmmm….. carrot cupcakes!

Totally sweet of my friend Marcy to drop off some goodies for today! These little carrot cupcakes are so good, moist, and the cream cheese frosting is AHHHH-mazing! Mmm.  I wish it were my belated birthday everyday!

Marcy, I really think you should get serious about baking.  These are definitely taste-worthy treats.  Thank you for being you and sharing you with me!

In addition to my super duper cupcakes, Marcy also brought me a Blog Like a Pro book! Yay! I am so excited, cause I have been stressing over the blog for a while now, and there would be nothing better than being like a pro! Thanks again, Marcy!

The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is to giveaway printables loud and clear!

Ok, so probably the BEST Christmas movie ever!! I love Elf! Will Ferrell is hilarious! Anyway, as the season gets closer and closer, I find myself struggling a little bit to get into the spirit this year.  I thought that maybe if I spent some time creating a fun retro and free {mini}printable set AND share it with all of you, that maybe I could jump start the spirit.

Inspired by vintage retro-ness (It’s a new word, just go with it!) The set includes 5” circles to make a banner saying “Merry Christmas”, 4 different 2” cupcake circles.  I have created a few different elements to go with it, so I am not done designing the rest… Anything you would love to see? Inspire me.  I am thinking of making a Christmas card that you add your picture to… or maybe to and from gift tags? What are your ideas?

Anyway, click on the pictures below and grab them now while they last! Thanks for stopping by and have a rad day!
