i am relatively new to this so i apologize if this is well known to everyone else 
could you help me find the stencils or alphabet cutters that look like they have swirls and dots on the letters...i am noticing those on alot of the cakes lately and love how they look..thanks so much, in advance
Are you talking about the letters like I use on my cake boards? See pic.
I usually use chocolate to write on my cakes - so I trace a font I've printed on the computer onto wax paper and transfer it onto the cake. It lets me do different fonts depending on the cake I'm doing, too! "Curlz" in MS Word works well, as does Comic Sans - easy to add dots on the ends of the letters. HTH! 
ssunshine564 are those cutters? If so they are so awesome and I must have them! Where are they from?
I purchased my funky alphabet Tappits from GlobalSugarArt.com and they also just got in the LOWER CASE ones! I love mine. Just make sure you roll out your Gumpaste or Fondant thin when you use them. Have fun...
CakeMommy3 you can purchase the Funky Alphabet letters from www.globalsugarart.com They now have the lower case letters, I need to get some of those too. I love them!! 
I was also wondering how to get those great letters.!
