I'm not blogging again...

If I say I'm not, maybe... well we'll see.

Here is what I've been up to, for anyone who cares, or still bothers to check.



I used my Cricut to cut out the apple on the lid, and used page protectors to make the plastic window.

I made the apple cupcakes for Teacher Gifts, and gave them to EmmaLee's preschool teachers and bus driver and attendant.

I printed up some Thank You Cards on my computer and on the back there is a place to write a personal note to the teachers.

I figured out how to make the cupcake box based off a photo I saw somewhere online of a folding gift box.


Doesn't that look so delicious! As an apple...and even more so as a CUPCAKE!


What's really ironic is that I made these on the last day of the school year, and my last post was around the first day of school! Yeah, I know I suck at blogging. :-)

    I am so with you on the blogging. It's hard, but you know what you really share nice things and people may not always leave comments but I for one love what you shared and appreciate your talent.

    Thanks so much for that.

    They are full size doughnuts that I got in a variety pack, Hostess brand I think. I just used store bought frosting and colored it red with food coloring. A full explanation is on the cricut messageboard here:

    Jackie- I don't have a cut file for the box, but it's super easy... I posted instructions on the cricut messageboards here:

    And the cupcakes are actually from a book called "What's New Cupcake", but I also posted instructions for how I did them here:
