DIY Fall Cupcake Toppers

Last night I made cupcakes with my new KitchenAid mixer (my new baby thanks to one of our wedding guests). I really love to bake, and I haven’t been able to do much of it due to the wedding and new puppies. Now, I’m so thankful that I can get back into the swing of things. After baking them, I wondered how I could decorate my applesauce spice cupcakes and decided to whip up some fall cupcake toppers. These would be a great touch for a fall wedding reception, a dinner party or Thanksgiving dinner.

 

What You’ll Need

 

Circle Punch

Craft Glue

Stamp Glue Pad

Stamp Glue

Stamp

Glitter

Construction Paper or Cardstock

Craft Sticks

 

Instructions

 

1. Most cupcake recipes make 24 cupcakes, so if you want cupcake toppers for each one, punch out 48 circles from construction paper or cardstock.

2. Fill your stamp glue pad with stamp glue.

3. Firmly stamp your stamp on the glue pad and then on your punched out circle. Cover the stamped area with glitter, turn upside down and shake off excess glitter. Repeat this until you’ve decorated 24 punched out circles with a stamp.

4. Using craft glue, place some on a non-stamped circle, making sure to place glue near the edges and in the middle.

5. Place a craft stick on the circle that has glue on it and cover it with a stamped circle. Firmly pinch the two circles together.

 6. Allow them to dry and place them in the middle of your cupcakes.
