My Crash Course in Vectors Resulted in Clip Art Cupcakes
Yesterday I was trying to come up with t-shirt designs for Tasty Tulsa and I ended up giving myself a long-needed crash course in vectors. I wound up with… cupcakes!
I’m using a series of cupcakes in the shirt design, but am offering two of them here as free cupcake clip art – since these will be used for our shirts, they are permitted for personal use only. And if you do use them on your website, all I require is that you provide a link back to http://fyrewurks.com somewhere on the page(s) that they are used on.
Free Clip Art Cupcakes with White and Black Backgrounds:
KalaaLog provided a great tutorial on creating a vector feather which really helped me get going with vectors. I hope you enjoy – now I’m off to play with more vector images!

Hi there – I just stumbled on your site, and I’m challenged now to see if I can vector up some cupcakes myself. I have one question, though – the images look great on the white background, but the edges are very pixelated on the black background. Why is that, and how can I prevent it?
I think (trying to remember) it’s because I didn’t start on a transparent background but rather started with a white background and then lost some of the smoothness when I copied it onto the black. Just start with a transparent background or the color of your choice and it should be OK.
Hi there,
I have just started a cupcake business in New Zealand, called Cupcake Grove. I was wondering if I could use the pink and brown cupcake on the white background as part of my logo, or if you have any other designs that I would be able to purchase.
Thanks for your time!

Sure, feel free to use it at no charge
Hi Jennifer,
I have a sign shop in Umatilla FL. I have a customer who wants to use your pink and brown cup cake on here front window of her new store (Doodlebugs Cup Cakes & More). Is that OK with you? And if so, can you send it to me in a j-peg 600X600 pixels or more? The program I use for the sign shop won’t let me open a gif file, and when I try to open it the way it is as a j-peg it’s too pixelated.
Thank you Jennifer,
Bill

Hi, I am doing a small home bakery for cakes and cupcakes. I would love to use your pink and brown design on my stickers for my cupcake boxes. The name is swirlz and it just looks so great with your design! Can you let me know if this would be ok?
