Cupcake Throne

I love Jan's Cupcake Throne!  I stumbled across her instructions on her blog- which was on Pinterest.  Here is the link-

I made one of these for someone special - and of course, put a cupcake in it.  It was sooo cute!  I had several requests to make more!  This time I used Shimmer Sheets for the background on all of them but the blue one.  The blue one is Ranger's sandable paper - I embossed it, then sanded it.  It is really cool paper!    Shimmer sheets are plastic and shiny and can be embossed too!  I sanded two of them. On the pink Happy Birthday one - I used Staz On ink.  I just rubbed it lightly across the top.  I love both of these techniques.  Here are a few more pics-You can click on them to make them larger.

 

 

 

This picture shows how shimmery- Shimmer Sheets are!  They are fabulous!  I only have 2 colors but I will have to get more!!!   I have not finished decorating them all since I want to save a couple for future use.  I think they are adorable!  Thanks, Jan!
