Dabbled LOVES Hello Naomi (aka Naomi Henderson), a favorite cupcake maker from Down Under! (Read the Dabbled Interview with her)
We’ve features her fabulous work here before (here, and here), and she has graciously given us a tutorial on how to make some lovely V-day cupcakes.

(a few translations from us Yanks, to the best of my ability: Icing Sugar = Powdered Sugar. Castor Sugar = a superfine sugar, which you can purchase in speciality stores here in the states, or make by pulsing regular sugar in a food processor or coffee grinder)
I’ve included…
Just a quick sketch for Illustration Friday, since the week’s almost out, and I’ve been so busy working on Foodwhirl.com… (Which you should now go check out!..details here.)
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’m visiting over at Dollar Store Crafts today, sharing my Flax-seed Brittle Hearts that I made for my sweetie for valentines day… So pop on over there and get the recipe and the directions!
Observant readers will remember I tried (and failed!) at something similar last year..
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend? Ours was nice, if quite busy!
Stay tuned tomorrow for a sweet treat tutorial, but today I have a few late night links and inspirations for you!
After seeing this in the Dabbled flickr group, I had to spotlight it here on Dabbled.org. Check out this incredibly cool felt sculpture by The Felted Chicken!
Very cool, huh? I love the combination of airbrush and needle felting…
Check out her other cool felt work at her shop… I love the felt sushi!
Here is a fun little idea I came up with last year, a cute valentines (or anytime) gift for a little girl. A stacked felt heart or flower pin.
This was inspired by the fact that kids grow out of clothes so fast, and while I was going to make a shirt or dress with a heart applique, instead I decided to make this pin (and a few others) so they could be used for a longer time. This looks adorable pinned on a dress or jacket, and would even work pinned to a hair elastic for a cute hair accessory.
You…
