Reindeer Cupcakes

Hello everybody!  If you're here for the Fantabulous Cricut "Deck the Halls" Crawl, it is below this post!  You can go directly there by clicking HERE or you could read today's post and scroll right to it when you're done.  Glad you've stopped by!

This is the last week of school for us here before Winter Break and its a very busy time! Tomorrow is my son's Pre-K holiday party and we made reindeer cupcakes for the event!  My son loves doing crafty things with me and when I told him we were going to make cupcakes and decorate them like reindeer, he was beside himself!  So I wanted to share our creations with you...

I got the idea from Family Fun magazine.  To create these it is really easy.

I used tootsie roll midges for the ears (you use about a 1/3 for each cupcake).  I bought white M&Ms at Michael's for the eyes.  I had my kiddos separate brown and red M&Ms for the nose.  I used mini crackers (vanilla wafers are best, but didn't have any) to create the snout (or whatever that is called) and pretzels for the antlers.  Aren't they cute??!

I'm sure they are going to be a hit with his teacher and classmates tomorrow!  

I'm so excited to have so many new followers!  I wanted to post a preview of a post from long ago that has tons of Christmas layouts since we're in the season and many of you may be in need of ideas for layouts.  Take a sneak peek at one of the layouts...

You can find more close ups and more layouts on this POST

I'll be back tomorrow with another layout and maybe even another project if I'm able to finish it tomorrow.  I hope everyone has a great day!  Thanks for stopping by!
