My Beautiful Birthday Cupcake!

I made this gorgeous cupcake wrap for my birthday! The fab folks at Cricut Expression gave me a machine and I was inspired to use this crown image from their "Home Decor Solutions" cartridge to decorate the wrap. I had seen the infomercials on TV for the Cricut and watched them all the way through like a craft show. They have all these different cartridges that you can put into the machine for school, holidays, parties, and so much more. All you do is select the image and size, and a small machine blade cuts it out. I write mostly about food and recipes on this blog, but I'm a crafty girl too and I know that the bakers and party peeps out there would appreciate this. Happy Birthday to me!

I love the Cricut machine and have only done very basic stuff so far. I actually used a really wide rosette tip for the frosting from my cookie press. I make a first frosting layer and then press it down with a spoon and do a second swirl for the top. Thanks a lot for your comment!
