My mojo decided to run away to join the circus today, and the only way I could try to tempt it back was with some chocolate cupcakes! Hey the sign says "Do what you love/love what you do", and I do love chocolate cupcakes, almost as much as I love sticky date cupcakes ;)
I saw this weeks inspiration photo and colours at The Play Date Cafe, and just kept thinking of Christmas treats, so I made some festive Christmas decorations - the best thing is they are re-usable (except the cupcakes of course LOL!) The cute sentiment, holly and reindeer are from The Alley Way Stamps Fa-la-la and Christmas Magic. Papers used are cardstock, SEI and Echo Park papers, together with washi tape from a variety of sources including Typo, and jute from The Ribbon Carousel. For each decoration I punched out two scalloped circles and sandwiched the bamboo skewers in between them, you could add decoration on the back too to create an edible centrepiece for your Christmas table.
