I get offers from sponsors from time to time for giveaways for my readers (most of which I ignore), but this one looked like one that you guys might like!
500 Business Cards, Full color on both sides! I can think of tons of things to do with these… Use them for your art or crafty biz would be an obvious choice, or if you have no business, how about your kids pic on there for play date cards. Or customized gift tags. Anyways, I figured Dabbled readers could find a good use for them, and I get a prize for…

I have pics from the party this weekend, and of the Perry Cake and the Clone Trooper Cupcakes… but between the weekend running over til monday with houseguests in town, and a client meeting tomorrow I had to prep for, I am behind! I’ll get ‘em up tomorrow. Maybe not the full tutorial on the cake, but at least a few pics!
While you’re waiting, I did post one of my mom’s classic cake recipes on Foodwhirl. And one of our new contributors gives us a great how-to on Tamales (go say hi, she’s new!).

Someone asked me the other day if Dabbled had a Facebook page.. And I realized that I’ve probably been slack about mentioning it… So, I’m mentioning it!
If you’re on Facebook, I’d totally love it if you’d go Like our Facebook Page! I’m planning on using it more in the future, but right now I post cool crafty links there, plus it gets the Dabbled RSS feed so you can see links to the most recent Dabbled posts there too. I’m planning on doing some contests and other fun stuff there too! So go share your love for Dabbled there!

Although the #craftsocial people know about this, I just realized I hadn’t mentioned a new project I’ve been working on with some other cool craft bloggers. (It’s one of the myriad of reasons posting has been light on Dabbled the last few weeks — I just keep filling my plate full and going back for seconds!)
So what is it?
We Dare You…
We dare you to reach outside of your craft comfort zone and create pieces you’ve never dreamed of. We dare you to write about the creative issues most important to you. Most of all, we dare you to join…

I’m mostly taking the day off to have a lovely little valentine’s day with the family… In the snow… What’s up with SNOW in Georgia, anyway? This is the second one we’ve had this year!
But a few little things:
- How cool, Laughing Squid linked to the Tentacle Hugs v-day card! (We heart Laughing Squid!)
- Be sure to check out the valentines, Chinese new year, and mardi-gras themed recipes at Foodwhirl!
Here’s a roundup of Valentine’s related projects on Dabbled, too!

Whoohoo! The new team food blog, Foodwhirl.com, officially launches today! It’s taken about a month for me to assemble this great team, and design and build the site, and now it’s ready for prime time… go check it out…
Since I can’t say it any better than the About page, here’s what the site is all about:
A little while ago, we had the idea to pull together real cooks like ourselves–who have lives and families, but still want to be creative and fun in the kitchen–and ponder the answer to that eternal question… “What’s for Dinner??” So we found some cool…

I mentioned in November that I was thinking about a new food-related group blog. With the holidays, that fell to the back burner, but now that we have a fresh new year, we’re starting up work on this new project. So, I figured I’d give you guys a heads up on what’s coming!
This new blog will try to answer the eternal question of ‘What’s for Dinner?’, with recipes, how-to’s, menus, techniques, and so forth. We’ll cover things like date-night meals, kid-friendly dinners, party fare, and budget friendly eating. It will be a group blog, with bloggers from different areas and…

I spent most of the morning drawing about 60 little pictures that are part of a great little stocking stuffer game I’ll be posting a ‘how-to’ for in the next few days. Here’s a little preview of some of the drawings… I was pretty impressed with my marathon 6 hour session — I really DID have other things I should have been doing today!
