Color Your Own Thanksgiving Cupcake Collars!!


Color Your Own
 Thanksgiving Cupcake Collars





I am a HUGE fan of fun things that involve
my daughter's creativity. This idea sprang up
this year given our busy schedules but desire
to make some fun Thanksgiving cupcakes.

This fun cupcake is something that ALL ages
can participate in on Thanksgiving and I 
think it is a FUN idea!! 

COLOR YOUR OWN TURKEY



All you have to do is print the cupcake
collar template ( see link below cardstock preferred),
 have your child color the turkey as Sophia did here....

So CUTE!

Bake some yummy cupcakes and then frost.
The last step would be to cut out the circle 
in the template and finally just place around
your super awesome CUPCAKE!



EASY and SO CUTE!!

I also made this fun Turkey Leg cupcake collar!     



Cardstock paper is a definite must.
We had a blast making a few of these turkeys &
when we put them all together, each personality
was sure to shine through! I made mine PASTEL!   
I am not the best with attaching images for printing
on my blog but you can try to download the images for
printing yourself by clicking HERE. 
Or feel free to email me and I can send you 
the word document file I created.     
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

Thanksgiving Head Dress Cupcake ~ November Cake Challenge Project!!!


Thanksgiving Head Dress Cupcake




It is always awesome to get emails from amazing blogging friends asking to participate in a fun themed project.

BUT...it is even MORE awesome when the request comes from
a group as AWESOME as these gals!!

Kathia from Pink Little Cake  and 
Melissa from The Baked Equation  
need a big THANK YOU for coordinating this awesome
November Cake Challenge Project!!

We were asked to come up with a fun
cupcake topper, cookie, cake or recipe to share. 

I spotted these CUTE cupcake wrappers on Etsy
and they became the inspiration for a few ideas!!

CLICK HERE FOR THE ETSY LISTING!!

To assemble the topper you need colored fondant
in cream, orange, red, green, brown and yellow.
I cut the circle and then used a small teardrop cutter to 
form the different leaves.  I hand cut out the green grass. 



Just assemble as you see in the photo! 

I hope you like it! 

Please check out these other AMAZING ladies and 
the wonderful ideas they are sharing as part of this fun project!

Polar Bear Cupcakes ~ Skiing Alaska and I'm STOKED!



There are certain things that only
come along once in a lifetime.

Like skiing the mountains of Alaska with my 
awesome husband, daughter and good friends.

These Polar Bear Cupcakes will
have to tide me over until we go in March.
  

 

I am a tad excited.




Bucket List #17 --> CHECK

I'm STOKED 

To be amazed, check out this video trailer
to the movie, Superheros of Stoke by Matchstick Productions.

We saw a screening of this awesome ski movie this weekend 
and it got me so pumped up for our trip! It really highlights  
and honors the most amazing freestyle skiers 
that have truly transformed this sport. 

     
(Make sure you expand to full screen, and crank the volume!)



 

This is my life in cupcakes.
