Quick and Easy Cupcake Toppers!

  Hey!

 

So the cute stamps in the Studio Calico Ciao Card Add-on Kit have really gotten a lot of use around here lately! When I saw these adorable stamps, I knew they'd be perfect for baby cards and kid birthday cards, but they're also great for party decor! Today, I'm going to show you how I made these super easy cupcake toppers that would be perfect for a baby shower or baby birthday party!

 

 

How cute are these little guys!? They perfectly dress up inexpensive grocery store cupcakes!

 

 

Here's how I made them:

 

1. Gather supplies

For this project, I used the Ciao Card Kit, the Animal Dies, Color Theory ink (Something Blue, Emerald City, and Orange County), double sided tape, and toothpicks.

 

2. Die cut

I used my Cuttlebug and the Animal Dies to create a bunch of fun die cut shapes. I cut out a bunch really quickly!

 

3. Cut a bunch

Make sure to cut two for each cupcake you have.

 

4. Stamp

Ink up your stamp and stamp your image on the die cut! I love how easy it is to create perfectly cut images with these coordinating dies!

 

5. Stamp a bunch

Stamp on enough die cuts to top all our your cupcakes. It might take you a couple tries to line up the stamps perfectly.

 

6. Adhere toothpick in place

Grab a plain white die cut shape and cover it with double sided tape. Lay the toothpick in the center and cover with your stamped die cut shape. Press to adhere.

 

7. Repeat

Repeat this for each of the cupcakes.

 

8. Place in cupcake

Place the toothpicks in the cupcakes!

 

 

How cute!? They give these mini cupcakes a fun decorative touch!
