Introducing a new feature: Ink & Batter!



Hey guys! Welcome to the official introduction of what will be a regular (every other week, but I don't think I will manage to have it weekly) new feature in the blog!

Some of you might know of my love for baking and decorating cupcakes, and I've even made book inspired cupcakes before but it was not till Becca from Pivot Book Reviews saw them and completely started squealing and demanding I made more that I decided I needed to make it a regular feature on the blog!

I asked a few of my good blogger friends over Twitter for suggestions and Sam from Realm of Fiction sent me a huge list full of great ideas via e-mail! After pondering about all the suggestions and a few ideas of my own, I chose Ink & Batter (from Sam's list, thanks a lot for all the suggestions, Sam!).

Then it was just a question of getting a banner made (ain't it pretty) and I was all ready to debut the feature! This week I will be showing the first two proper examples of book inspired decorated cupcakes that I made, and hopefully for next Thursday or the one after I'll have some new book inspired cupcakes to show off!

The first inspired cupcakes were made for a contest on CJ Redwine's blog to win an ARC of Deception, and I was so inspired that I made Defiance inspired cupcakes and on a whim also made Incarnate & Asunder by Jodi Meadows inspired cupcakes!


DEFIANCE CUPCAKES






INCARNATE & ASUNDER CUPCAKES






Now I have a huge list of books that I'm super inspired to make decorated cupcakes about like Splintered & Unhinged by Anita G Howard, Deliverance by CJ Redwine, Infinite by Jodi Meadows, The 57 Lives of Alex Wayfare by M.G Buehrlen, The Ring & The Crown my Melissa de la Cruz, A Mad Wicked Folly by Sharon Biggs Waller, the Selection series by Kiera Cass ( I need to decorate cupcakes inspired by each of the dresses in the covers!)...

Do you guys have any suggestions? Let them in the comments, I'm always happy to add more books to my list!

Thankful Thursday: Winning Giveaways!

Hello everyone! How's your week going?

Mine is going fairly well, work is fairly insane busy but that's kinda usual anyways. For today's Thankful Thursday I wanna say thank you cause I've been insanely lucky to win a bunch of giveaways this past two weeks!

First, last week I won a Twitter giveaway from author Ashley Elston for an ARC of Alienated by Melissa Landers!

Then, I won a preorder of Avalon by Mindee Arnett at Realm of Fiction!

And today I won a preorder of All Our Yesterdays by Cristin Terrill at My Friends Are Fiction!

I'm just SO happy and grateful! And I'm also thinking it might just be the time to play the lottery! ;)
