Bday Cupcake

Over the Thanksgiving holidays, I was lucky enough to get my hands on the Cricut Sweet Treats cartridge; but with all the mayham of the holidays, I am only now using this cartridge and I have no regrets buying it! :)

This cartridge is perfect for bdays with all those cute cupcake cuts.  I haven't really done a whole lot of paper crafting this new year, but I plan to get back to it somehow, I miss it!!! Our little niece is turning 9, she is such a spireted girl filled with endless energy, so I wanted to create something FUN for her on her birthday!  

Here is what I came up with!

I used DCWV Nana Kids matching and emobssed pattern paper.  I really think these fun colors express her personality oh so perfectly!  With the help of Cricut Design Studio, I was able to weld the "9" to top the cupcake and added liquid laquer to the flames to add a bit of dimension.

Supplies:

Cricut Sweet Treats Cartridge

Fiskar edge punch

DCWV Texture paper, DCWV Nana Kids pattern paper

Liquid laquer

Miscellenous flower with shimmer
