Hello! I'm Sarah aka Shadows Creations. I've decided to revamp
and change things up. My Shadows Creations blog will remain up
but from now on this is my new home. I've been given the nickname
Wicked Little Cupcake and it stuck lol.
I just love it! So I decided I needed a new home with it :)
I'll be posting tutorials, scraps and random things on here.
I am trying to be more positive and wanting to post things which
make one think & stop for a moment. That's the idea anyways we'll
see how it goes.

TOUs

I do not allow resizing of my tags, timelines or wallpapers. All of my creations are for PU only unless otherwise stated. Nor are they to be altered in any way either.
