Weekly Inspiration Challenge - CUPCAKES!
Who doesn't love a cupcake? These yummy, bite sized morsels have been making their way into scrapbooking for the past little while and they are one of the most delicious themes around! They are the perfect embellishment for birthday and celebration layouts, as well as anytime you want a sweet and pretty theme. You can make yummy cards, tags and gifts with them as well.
