Wedding Season has started already and above are a few things for you to either make or send to the happy couple.

We have some of the cutest cupcake kits ever made! The Ballet and Fariy Magic kits are embellished with sheer fabric skirts. Click here for more details.

I think I am slightly behind the times on this one but I have just come accross a really great craft magazine called Mollie Makes. It is currently on issue 14 so I cannot believe I have missed this one for over a year. It has brilliant articles on making, thrifting, collecting and crafting. The photography inside is gorgeous and very inspirational.

At last we have new items in from Meri Meri here at The Paper Parlour!! We have cupcake boxes, recipe files, cupcake cases and cupcake gift sets. Every single item has colourful and cute prints and help you be more inventive in the way you display your baking. Below are just a few of the items available, specifically cupcake boxes and matching cases. Please click here to view the full range.

I have just found out about a new exhibition coming to the V&A Museum in London that looks amazing. Its called Ballgowns: British Glamour since 1950 and covers a wide range of designers such as Erdem, Alexander Mcqueen and Jenny Packham to name but a few. It will also include gowns worn by Royalty and Hollywood legends. I think it sounds really interesting and I will definitely be going to see it. It runs from May 19th 2012 to January 6th 2013 . Below I have added some images from the V&A website of some of the gowns which will be on display. The first is the 'Rumina' gown by Erdem, and the second is Alexander McQueen s/s 2011.

We have just got this new pocket sized stamp set in at The Paper Parlour. I love the Keep Calm and Carry On slogan and now you can make your own cards, invitations or simply decorate inside notebooks like the one below.

I am currently preparing for the Easter festivities and thought now would be a good time to share my love of Choccywoccydoodah with you. I am sure many of you will have seen the television program dedicated to them on The Good Food channel. Here are just a few of the wonderful cakes they create from the finest Belgian chocolate.

When I saw these I could not resist getting them. The full Meri Meri Calling all Princesses range takes me back to being little, party dresses and goody bags filled with cake and sweets! Click here for more information and to purchse.

I have just come across the work of Ann Siems and thought it was beautiful! She originates from Berlin and creates art which focuses on dreams and the psyche. I like how the painting seem to use layers of intricate detail to build the final image. The use of layers creates a translucent quality which I really like.
