Favorite Blog: A Beautiful Mess

I found this blog and I L-O-V-E it everything about it is so cute.The crafts and hairdo's are sweet and functional and just my style. The writer Elsie and her team are amazing at what they do and keep it stylish while they do it. The crafts are so do-able and are so so so so adorbale. My most amazing readers I introduce Red velvet...................

Frosting Recipes

This is my version of the not so classic vanilla icing this is so yummy you will be lucky if there is any left for  the cake at all. Don't let a drop go to waste.

(Not so) Classic Vanilla Frosting ( Sarah Style)


2 packages of cream cheese
1 tub of frozen coolwhip (thawed) 
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 c. fine granulated sugar (I like Domino's)

1. Soften the cream cheese in the microwave, about fifteen seconds each. Add that to the thawed coolwhip and mix with an electric mixer.
2. Add the vanilla and slowly add the sugar while mixing.
3. Use to frost a cool cake. This frosting is very yummy, cheap, and easy. This isn't a decorating frosting But really looks professional swirled on a cake and topped with fruit. This is best with vanilla cake or chocolate cake; but i love it with pound cake.

Valentines Day Cards

Happy Valentines Day. Have I ever mentioned this is my favorite holiday, I love how people plan ways to surprise other and give others gifts. Everyone seems to be more thoughtful and not expect all that much. This is the card I have made for my sister. I love the simplicity of it and how it is geometric with the swirly letters. I originally wanted to do a sewed card but ran out of time. Very sweet I think.
