Crafty Creations Challenges - #154 Valentine's for a child - Anything but a Card!


Gotta say I thoroughly enjoyed the valentine projects last week - and this week we are extending the LOVE theme because this weeks Crafty Creations Challenge is:

To Create Anything BUT a card - Valentine's for children!

How's about that for a fun lil challenge? 

One of the sheets in the 6x6 paper pad Love Struck by We R Memory Keepers is perfect for chopping into little sections.....so I did exactly that! I then pulled out the ever faithful nesties and created a little mat.  I adhered 2 sparkly hearts (Making Memories) back to back with some wire in the middle x 3 sets. 

Then i was ready to "sandwich" everything toegther - 2 of the (matted) sections (back to back) with a cocktail stick and hearts-on-a wire filling! 

And there it was - the perfect topper for a red velvet cupcake with
coconut creme cheese frosting!

I have it on good authority (my handy 8 year old nephew) that it looked class and tasted delicious!! 
I couldn't ask for a better critique than that!

Our wonderful sponsor this week is Digital Delights -
so please join us for your chance to win a fabulous prize! bx

EDITED:  OOoooops...i forgot to mention my little "finishing touch" on the cupcake - i got some of these die cuts on holiday - simply fold 'em, glue 'em and there you have a cute lil flower shape; which i finished off with a bright sparkly Prima gem!
