WhipperCafe & Friday Flair | Link Party

YAY… It's {almost} Friday!!! Have you come over and checked out the new diggs over at WhipperCafe {If you want to learn how to navigate through the community click here.} We had a ball chatting about all kinds of fun things yesterday. Today… Tracie from Cleverly Inspired will be chatting about Valentine Treats and I'm going to be hanging out at Blogging 101. Ellie from The Vanilla Bean Girls is going to be talking about fun kid spaces & Amanda Joy from Joy in the Jumble is gabbing about link parties!! Speaking of Link Parties… Raise your hand if you are ready for Friday Flair! Oh but first… we need this weeks inspiration picture.

I think it's offical… my love affair with donut making has begun! I love these coffee and donut cupcakes from Always Better with Butter. Don't they look fun.  I can't wait to share my recipe for my vanilla bean heart shaped donuts from the other day!

Before we get the party started I have a little programing note… I'm super excited to be attending the Craft and Hobby Association trade show {CHA} this weekend with a handful of aaaamazing bloggers.  I can't wait to share all the fun! It's located in Anihiem, California this time and the word on the street is we MAY be visiting a certin Mouse while we are there.  Can't wait to share.  While I'm gone, you may want to check back often… I have a special CHA deal coming your way from Silhouette!! Also, the Friday Flair features will post next Thursday rather than Sunday.  If you want to follow my CHA adventures you may want to follow my Twitter or Facebook feed along with a little Instagram fun! It's going to be quite the ride…
