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
