christmas wrap up!

i hope everyone had a lovely christmas!! here is just a little summary of some of the christmas sweets that i made this year!

sweet little christmas cupcakes!

i made these for a corporate order as gifts for their clients, i think they are just so pretty and such a lovely gift! simple, sweet and so, so, so delicious!

santa cookies!

i designed these sweet little santa cookies to match this ridiculously cute christmas note set by imprintables... after making what felt like a gazillion of them they started to loose their cuteness... but i couldnt stay mad at them for long- they are just too adorable!

note sets available from imprintables

christmas wrap up

i hope you all had a wondeful christmas! with a party to plan for the day after boxing day i didnt get much of a break but i squeezed in some last minute shopping, baking and wrapping and it all turned out quite nice! oh and i got a record player off my sweet boyfriend and a cat rabbit toy off my lovely sister (its lucky she reads my blog)- so i am one happy girl at the moment!

thanks so much for reading my blog and for all the lovely comments, it has been a lot of fun this year and i am looking forward to 2011!
