A little Christmas Cheer!

It seems that this week we have little time to breath while preparing for Christmas, entertaining family from away and trying to get some work done.  When I had to bake cupcakes today, I had no time to do anything fancy so I had to think of a way to make my cupcakes stand out.  Cannot have plain cupcakes people!!!  So I thought back to Thanksgiving when Elsie created these adorable cupcake picks and thought, I CAN DO THAT!  I printed some tags from this months Guild kit, Season of Delight, taped some toothpicks to the back of them and stuck them in the cupcakes!  Now when we are at the party taking pictures, people can add their Christmas wishes before they chow down.  :)  Thanks Elsie for the inspiration!

On Tuesday evening I baked this little gem for Connor’s Christmas party at school!  He told me that the class really liked Fred, which is what Connor named him.  He was a chocolate cake with butter cream for snow and everything is made from marshmallow fondant!

I made some snowball garland today, which took a whole ten minutes and four dollars!!!  :)

And I even took a few minutes to scrap while I was waiting for everything to bake… Seasons of Delight, this months Guild kit.
