With a cherry on top...

The early part of last year, my husband came home with this Sizzix die and asked me if I could make something with it. I must of forgotten about it since it was put away with all my other dies and I only found it recently while going through the mess. I decided to put Miss Kiki La Rue on this cupcake since she is holding a cupcake too. By the way, this is an XL die called cupcake card with holder. I ran the cupcake holder part through my Fiskars paper crimper.
Threw on some chunky glitter for the frosting and a Sizzix rub-on for the word. Rub-on's come in handy when you're rushing to finish.Here is what the cupcake holder looks like and the card that goes in the holder.
If you're not busy on Saturday and want to do some crafting, head on over to Ben Franklin Crafts in Kailua for their paper party. I'll be doing a make & take there from 10-12 pm. And when you're done, I'll be giving you some freebies. And to top it off, if you've been wanting a Sizzix Big Shot PRO machine, the store is having a drawing to give one away! Wow!
Thanks for stopping by today and I really appreciate all the sweet comments you leave me. Have a great Thursday and hope to see you on Saturday!!!

Hi Cheryl~
They both blended out so well, I did Ms Kiki LaRue for my granddaughter's birthday card and treat bags. They also came out so cute~. I'm new to paper-crafting and I love everyone's blog ideas.
Great job to all the blogger's!

Another super duper sweet card! I love the Kiki image and I'll try to stop by J's next time I'm in Honolulu....hope it's a rubber stamp. I have the die but I've never made a card as cute as yours. Even I didn't know about the BFC pro machine giveaway...always out of the loop LOL!
