This week's challenge over at The Paper Variety is to include a cupcake in your project!  I've been out of town for the past week, my mom was in ICU & we almost lost her!  But before I left I created my layout!  The cupcake frosting I created with bloomers and just random flowers that mixed in well.  Of course it's sassafrasslass indie girl papers!  This layout looks amazing in person, the picture just doesn't capture the full beauty!  I'm so glad to be back home!  So let's get busy with your cupcakes!!!
