fabulous freebie friday

I’m so excited to share a special guest with you today. Please welcome Ellie Snow of Mint, a talented graphic designer who you may recall meeting in this post.  Ellie happily agreed to custom design a special Halloween goody for you.  Everybody loves cupcakes, so I requested cupcake toppers.  And these are perfect toppers to liven up  any Halloween festivity!

Welcome, Ellie!

.  .  .  .  .

Hello Simply Seleta, and thanks for hosting me today!  I’m Ellie Snow, a  freelance graphic designer and writer of the design blog, Mint.  Seleta asked me here today to share some Halloween-themed cupcake toppers with a pdf you can download and print from home.

For this project, you’ll need:

• a 2″ circle punch and/or scissors

• a glue stick and tape (or double-sided tape)

• colored paper

• toothpicks

• a printer

First, download and print the PDF available here, and cut out the cupcake toppers inside the dotted lines. You will need 2 toppers per cupcake.

Next, use tape to attach the toothpick to the back of a cupcake topper.

Then cover the back of the taped topper with glue. (Alternatively, you could use double-sided tape).

Press another cupcake topper on top of the first one.

And voilà! Perfectly spooky cupcakes!

Thanks Seleta!

Thanks for taking the time to create one of your mod designs for us, Ellie.  What a TREAT!  You can see more of Ellie’s gorgeous designs at her stationary shop Hello Tenfold or check out her inspiring blog, Mint.

Happy Friday, friends!
