October 14, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 16 Comments

We are thrilled to be guest posting today over at Whip Up with a tutorial on how to make some Fabric Cupcake Toppers. They are such a fun project to use up pretty fabric scraps and would work so well for lots of different occasions – high tea, birthdays, Christmas etc. 
Drop on over to Whip Up to get all the details. We were so pleased to contribute to the Guest Blogger Series – thanks Kathreen.
