Ah, Ele, I liked this post! I'm sorry you cannot find your hook up cord, but I am glad that you shared goodies from your Etsy shop (LOVE 'EM) and the DIY cupcake toppers are wonderful!
You are too cute. I personally don't mind when bloggers advertise or show their goodies from Etsy. I'm not offended....do people get offended? Anyhoo...great tutorial! Blessings, Debbie
Oh.. I love this.. You are so funny. I love the cupcake toppers.. so darling.. I think what you posted through your Etsy is perfect.. You are a busy gal.. Love everything you make.. Wish you could get me motivated :)
EEEEEKS! I'm GLAD you shared because I was OBVIOUSLY looking at the wrong thing when I went to check out the toppers you mentioned in your email. I WONDERED how those lil' flowers went on the cupcakes. DUH! I LOVE these, Ele! I can think of SO many ways to use them, too! (I don't make cupcakes but I WANT to make the toppers so I had to think creatively. LOL!) And NO ONE would gag, barf, or otherwise regurgitate over ANYTHING you do, sweet girl!
Eke,,,you are just to cute! Love your sweet lil toppers to!!! I found Modge Podge and LOVE it to deather..been doing that with my victorian ornies! Watch out..I'm gonna find something else to use it on!
Hello Ele, what a cute post. LOL Love your idea of cupcake pics. Just might make some or maybe buy some from you! LOL Love ya, Shirl Shirls Rose Cottage
Hi, Ele -- Love when you show your etsy stuff .... it's the commercial advertising that drives me crazy (yes, I know it's a short drive, but still ... !) Hugs and happy hunting for the magic cord. Betty :) ps ... got my first blog award!!
Those cupcake toppers are pretty unique. I want to try it with myself too and use it this coming Christmas. I hope you had a great day. God bless mate.
Smile...This truly is a slice of heavven! Not sure how I got here (not gagging) but I love it! Oh...and your cord...right theree silly girl...under those WONDERFUL DIY projects...Great to meet you...I shall stop again...going to be a Grammy you know...as a matter of fact...tomarrow! I have become a follower..and shall return...promise not a threat!
Ele, you are so cute...there is nothing wrong with a little advertising now and then...your etsy mini is adorable...and i love your cupcake toppers!!! hope you find your hook up soon:)
Oh Ele that is so funny, I laughed and smiled from start to finish. I hate it when you can't find the camera cord. I now leave mine hanging out of the desktop computer. Before that if I couldn't find it I would have to take the card out of my camera and put it in the card reader on the computer Alison
Ele, those toppers are really sweet and would make darling ornaments also. In the previous post, I have made so many of those plate stands and used small ones to make a Hershey cake. If I can find the picture, I could explain it better. I just love seeing all you make. It's such a joy and I wish someone could get me motivated to craft again. Hugs, Pat
Ele There very pretty.I don't know were the web cam hook up is either.My friend just gave one to the boys so the kids can veiw/tal with each other.Hugs,Jen
Hi Ele Awe, we'll forgive you this time!LOL Great idea for toppers, think I'll do some similar in a mini garland. Hope all is well I've been away so long. The new blog is just plain open and easier to access at rufflesribbonsandroses. Visit soon, Lori
Have so missed my blog reading but have been a little busy...This week there are 2 GREAT GIVEAWAYS on my Holiday Blog. They only require a comment...AND there are some good looking boys on my main blog..... Blessings to you and your this Thanksgiving season. I am so ready to get bad to reading my favorite blogs.
Ack!Ack!Ack! NOT. See? No one barfed. It's your blog, and it's good, and your Etsy things are charming. What's not to like? as we say in New York. Cass

Hello, Have you found your cord yet?? You really don't need your camera cord....

I have been making cupcake toppers. They are not only fun to make, but FUN TO USE! Stick these picks into pieces of cake, cupcakes, or brownies.
DIY PROJECT: CUPCAKE TOPPERS
[Image]CRAFT TIP: Use a craft punch or machine to cut out the two large scalloped shapes, also use cocktail toothpicks as they are longer the regular toothpicks.
Supplies:
cardstock, or heavy glitter paper
computer images, images from cards, decorative scrapbook paper, stickers,
craft glue (I like liquid)
cocktail toothpicks
two scalloped medallion craft punches; lrg. and med.
Instructions:
Cut out two large scalloped medallions of glitter paper or heavy cardstock
Cut out one medium scalloped medallion of printed images or decorative scrapbook paper, (for the center of your pick).
Insert a toothpick between the two lrg. medallions and glue medallions together.
Glue med. medallion in the center of one lrg. medallion, or simply place a sticker in the middle.
Let dry, or
purchase from me.....gag, barf, gag!!!
Really.....have fun making your cupcake toppers and please share pictures!

Did you use glitter or glitter paper because glitter takes a certain skill I do not possess.
