Cupcakes for Christmas

I haven't done the Limited Supplies Challenge on Splitcoast in a while, but when I saw today's challenge, I couldn't resist. The challenge was to use a stamp in a different way, such as using hearts to create a flower.

I turned a cupcake upside down, then drew a hook to create a Christmas ornament. Then I colored it with glitter pens to really make it sparkle. I think it turned out pretty cute. What do you think?

Stamps: Clear Cupcakes (Hero Arts), Best Yet (SU)
Paper: PTI white, Brilliant Blue, Real Red, Ski Slope dp
Ink: Basic Black, Real Red
Accessories: glitter pens (Sakura and Spica), jeweled brads (Oriental Trading Co.), ribbon (Hobby Lobby), dimensionals

OMG! This is AWESOME! What a creative idea! Way to think outside the box! Now I can justify buying more cupcake stamps because I can use them for x-mas cards. :) LOL!
