Birthday Cupcake

Just want to share how to make a cute birthday cupcake.

Got this idea from one of the scrapbook shop here in christchurch. The lady is very nice to show me how she did their sample cupcake so i decided to make one by cutting it in half so i can attach it on my layout hihihi

So these are the materials I used.

Here's the procedure:

• For the cupcake, I covered the styro with mod podge, dipped it in glitters, and left it to dry. Then attached some colored beads after it dried out.
• For the candle, I cut a styro to serve as my candle and popped in the rounded needle making sure that there’s a tip left to stick it in the cupcake. Then applied mod podge and glitters.
• I cut the corrugated paper to serve as my cupcake paper.
• Then attached everything with glossy accents.
• Tada! A cute cupcake (“,)

I GOT IN!

My apologies for not updating this blog for a loooooong time because of missing of MOJO :)

I’ve been busy job hunting and playing Farm Town and FarmVille in FB at the same time hihihihi

Anyway, I have good news to share. I GOT IN! I GOT IN! (",)

I entered the Scrapbook Challenges DT Call for the first time not really expecting to be chosen but to at least be able to tell myself that I tried. And because my good friend is always pushing me to try it. (“,)

After a few days of waiting, I finally got an email from Pamela saying that SHE WANTS ME! Yipeeeeeee! I could not believe it! I am sooooooo happy and honored to design for Scrapbooking Challenges! Thank you Pamela! (“,)

Can’t wait to begin the journey! :)
