I know many of you appreciate a good deal. So, I will share.....
I bought this Wilton cupcake stand at a garage sale a few summers ago for maybe $2 to $3. It as been in the cabinet and hasn't been used.
At Wal-mart, I bought one box of Pillsbury white cake mix for $.88 and two containers of Pillsbury whipped frosting for $1.50 each (one container would have worked, but I preferred both vanilla and chocolate frosting for taste and looks). Also, one container of Great Value chocolate sprinkles for $.97.
I baked and iced these on my own and make small 1.5 inches circles with my favorite scrapbooking tool - the Cricut Expression. I have lots, lots, and lots of scrapbooking supplies so I had the brown cardstock on hand. I didn't have a #2 stamp, but I did have a small alphabet. So, with my white ink pad and my alpha stamps, glue dots, and toothpicks I created my own cupcake toppers.
Do you like it?
