Sunday Sequence

Words fail to describe how much I crave to bake right now. All weekend I've been wanting to whip up a batch of delicious cupcakes and eat one (or maybe a few) straight out of the oven. I already have the mix and the frosting (not that I wouldn't like to make them from scratch), so I'm hoping to bake some next week. I'll post pictures of course, but for now just some inspiration.

Lovely Movies

If you haven't seen Prince of Persia yet, go do it. I did a little while back, didn't expect much to be honest, I wasn't even planning on going to see it, but my dad was pretty excited so we went. It was amazing! One of the best I've seen in a while actually.

I really like how the stunts look like stunts in a computer game, but not too far-fetched. And I love that it wasn't too predictable.

Of course none of the actors look Persian, and sound even less like it, but they were all great. And I hear most of them did a lot of their own stunts too. Not surprising if you see Jake Gyllenhaal in this part, he has really spend a lot of time at the gym by the looks of it.

Just a Little Update

After going through art school admissions yesterday, I am exhausted. As I expected, I'm not exactly sure what they thought, but I do think the assigments went quite well. So I did my part and all that's left now is wait for the letter to arrive.

Apart from that I made yet another treasury, this time all about cupcakes!

Just a Little Update

I've been wanting to show you this picture. My mom had made me Milo, which is quite similar to hot chocolate. She put some foamed milk on top of it and somehow it turned out into this perfect heart:

Today has been a busy day. I am working on a custom order and had to go to the supply store. I'm hoping to make lots and lots of new bookmark designs soon. In eight days I'll be done with my portfolio, and even though I still have other stuff to do I will try to create all the designs that are now floating through my thoughts.

Here's my latest design by the way. You can see more pictures of it here if you'd like.

This weekend I'll try to plan our holiday. I am very excited and know it'll be fun, but it's hard to decide what would be best.

Do you have your holiday planned yet?

Pretty Paintings

Not too long ago I was introduced to Erica Yamashiro's art by someone I know from the internet. I loved it immediately and I think you might like it too.

Mostly Erica uses soft pink, salmon, grey and brown. But it's never too sweet, even though she does paint lots of cute animals and cupcakes.

It always has a very serene and magical vibe and it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.

I don't really have anything to add to this, apart from the fact that I noticed such a cute strawberry border on the painting below.

All images belong to Erica Yamashiro of course.

That's all for today. But stay tuned, because it's time for my very first giveaway tomorrow!

Owl Things Considered

Just a few cupcakes today.
