CAS Christmas - Holiday Treats

Hello friends.  This month's challenge at CAS Christmas is all about HOLIDAY TREATS!


And who doesn't like HOLIDAY TREATS??!!  When I was younger and our girls were all at home, I baked like crazy from the beginning of December, and then the girls and I would package them all up on pretty plates and deliver them to friends and neighbors...such FUN memories!!

For my card I used a sweet little die cut from my dear friend Birgit and came up with this:


Isn't that snowman cupcake just the cutest?!!  It's from The Stamping Cottage and I colored all the pieces with my Copics before assembling it.  My background was embossed in white using a Hero Arts Hand Drawn Snowflakes Bold Prints background stamp, and then I lightly blended Abandoned Coral DOX ink over it.  I added a Pierced Feature Frame (PTI) over the background piece, and then adhered to a white card base and then pop dotted the snowman cupcake over the embossed background.


I was trying to capture the WOS in this close up for you, but no luck.  The snowman and icing are covered with it though!  My little sentiment tag is from PTI's Tiny Tags set.  Gosh I'm hungry for a cupcake now!  :0)

Check out all the sweet treats from the rest of the DT over at CAS Christmas and then play along...the challenge is open till the 24th.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

I bet you could find a way to make a real snowman topper for a cupcake on Pinterest, Marcia, but your little fellow makes a great paper treat.

Love the pink, Marcia ... what a fabulous background, it looks like it's a big iced cookie behind that cute, rather scrumptious looking, snowman adorned cupcake! Hugs, Anita :)
