Paper Cupcake has a Treasury on Etsy!!!

After staying up countless hours, we finally have a Treasury! It features hand-picked items by Justyna that are perfect for anyone who is a romantic, feminine, sweet, or in the mood for gift-giving! Check it out for some last minute ideas for those on your Nice List.

Back to the old grindstone...

We're going on a vacation!

Actually, it's more like an overhaul :-) We are redoing our shop, which includes changing our marketing strategies and our products. Stay tuned for any updates!

Some sad news and some good news!

Well, obviously, I did not roll out my awesome Halloween-tines in time for the holiday :-( However, the Overcast Sentiments are still in the works. I'm trying to hunt down a better print shop to make them for me because the one I'm currently using just isn't up to snuff.

That's not the good news, however! I Paper Cupcake is proud to introduce the hair goods line! We're starting with some pinup- and burlesque-inspired hair flowers. They're fabulous for going out on the town or just spicing up an everyday look. Click on the pictures to be taken to the Etsy shop.

Keep your eyes peeled for original artwork. Also, if you're an artist and interested in selling your goods in our shop, feel free to shoot me an email!

We've been featured in "A Craftier World!!!"

This is an exciting time for Paper Cupake...

About two months ago, I was approached on Etsy by Jane from A Craftier World. She told me that for their second issue, ACW was going to feature school-inspired art and they wanted to include my Moleskine journals. I was thrilled! Well, after waiting in anticipation, it's up and ready to go! You can find the issue by going here (or clicking the picture below) and clicking on either link. Unfortunately, that particular journal featured in the issue was snatched up shortly after the interview, but there are more to come. Meanwhile, check out our other products, like our lego accessories, earrings, and picture frame!

Thanks for the love and support!

Darned Computers!

So, currently I am without a computer with which I can upload photos...and I wanted to show some of the jewelry about to be listed in the shop :-(
Man...
I guess it's going to have to wait until Sunday.
Hold tight 'til then!

P.C.

A Sneak Peek!

I decided that since I probably won't get around to actually making these very soon (I am a full-time college student, after all), I want to post some sketches of the greeting card line that was mentioned in the last post. I'm hoping to get a gocco printer in a couple of months, to streamline the process of making the cards. Also, it's just fun! Feel free to comment on whatever you would like to see, or would like to change.

Thanks, lovelies!

Upcoming Products

Hey, there! I know I haven't posted in a long time, but I've had good reason. I've been holed away, somewhere in the mountains, working on new stuff! Whoot! Okay, so maybe I wasn't in the mountains, but I have been thinking up some great products!
So far, there is a greeting card line in the works--Overcast Sentiments. They feature adorable clouds who spread joy...and, in some cases, gloom. That is the whole point of clouds, isn't it? In addition, there will be a spin-off painting series with the same little guys (and gals!). I can't wait for you to see!
Also, there will be Halloween-tines. Why reserve the exchange of cards for just Valentine's Day? I think Halloween deserves a little more than costumes and candy, don't you?
So, stay tuned and I will post another new blog as soon as I have updated my shop.

Love you, cuppycakes!

Legos, Legos, Legos!

New items in the shop? Legos! One necklace and three brooches are up for sale, and hopefully there will be more. Inspired by Marc Jacobs, but brought to you (for MUCH less, no doubt!) by Paper Cupcake.

Bye for now, my little cuppycakes! Stay creative!!

Frame + Journals

Hello, my little cuppycakes! Excitement is palpable in the Paper Cupcake studio, as I have received my amazing stitching patterns from Sublime Stitching. I've started on some washcloths that say things like "Wash Up" and "Dirty, Dirty" in rockin' tattoo font. Fun, fun!
Also, there are a couple of journals and a frame up. Personally, I LOVE making these frames because I can match them to whatever decor I have to work with. Naturally, custom orders are always welcome.

In addition, I'm attending a virtual lab on Etsy that is all about cupcake-themed things. How perfect, right?

Stay tuned, lovelies! More to come :-)
