25-Days CWC-PCW Craft Showcase - Day 10

Welcome


Graduation is a fun time
when to you see your family and friends
complete in their lives

I have ways to go before my kiddos
graduate.
found this inspiration
on you tube and of course and
cut corners for time


CUPCAKE TOPPERS OR CENTERPIECE

6" Chipboard with a 2" center
3" Styrofoam ball
2 -  2"x12" cardstock
Die Cut With a View Back to School

Cut chipboard in section towards the second circle and pleat
score 12" stripes of paper in 1/4" increments

glue to the two 2" pieces of paper together
and hot glue the pleats together
then remove styrofoam ball

took a shot cut and used glittered tissue paper that I bought
from the dollar store (folded in half and trimed off approximate 4iches
 used regular glue and adhered the tissue paper
 added extra white trim to the edge of the cupcake

completed by placing all the cupcake toppers on this faux cupcake for a centerpiece prop
