Silhouette Heart Cupcake Topper

Let's eat! — A quick way to theme a treat!

Every year I let Valentine’s Day sneak up on me, so I’m always on the lookout for some quick “I’d planned it this way for weeks” ideas. Here’s one that I love!

Don't go breakin' my heart...umbrella. — It's a drink umbrella in the Silhouette store but I'm using it as a cupcake topper.

Instead of adding a toothpick to this heart topper/umbrella, I’ll be using a stirring straw for mixing drinks. I keep those on hand for crafting…and parties. 😉

And we're creasing and we're creasing. — Use the leftover hearts for some table confetti!

The topper on the left has a tab to join the ends together. The topper on the right is tab free. Glue it as desired. I’m using Glue Dots.

It looks like I'm stabbing a starfish in this photo. — This photo looks sort of gross. It's just a Glue Dot though.

I added a few glue dots to the inside middle of the formed topper. Then I stuck my skinny straw onto the glue. I buy these mixed drink stirring straws from my local grocery store. Look where plastic silverware and Solo plates and cups are. You might find them there or in the wine/beer section. Use whatever you have on hand. You could even tightly roll a piece of paper and use that!

What a pretty cupcake that I DID NOT MAKE. LOL! — Cute topper? Check. Pretty cupcake? Check.

My contribution to this cupcake is the topper. The cupcake was born at a bakery. I did have a lot to do with it being eaten though…I mean, I ate the cupcake not the topper. I wasn’t THAT hungry. LOL!
