BOYS - BOYS - BOYS





It's our BOYS week and we are excited, we do have to admit it has been a little bit of a challenge because we can't use our MP&G and it's difficult to make boys things Over The Tipsy Top but we will do our best, so here we go........ We love our boys and we love our cupcakes....it may not seem like it but we don't always use MP&G and all the fun girlie stuff. A few years ago when Pixar "Cars" was the big rage, Marla's little boy loved them!!!!! So, each time she went to the store she would look to see if they had any new "Cars" in... one day she made a batch of cupcakes and then went to do a little shopping, on that trip she found a couple new "Cars". When she got home she opened them up and put them on top of the cupcakes, Mckay was gone that day but when he returned home he was so excited to see his "new Cars" on big fluff cupcakes! So, find a little gift for your boys and give it to them on top of a cupcake, trust us they will love it!!! The skeleton and cross-bones is a gift card to a skate shop, you could do a golf, a gas or fast food gift card for your teenage boys. As you can see we wrapped a bit of ribbon around the cupcake paper, you just need to use a little of your left over frosting to hold it on there. Most of the cupcakes in the bottom picture don't have ribbon and what a difference it makes!! (Ribbon doesn't always look girlie) Yes, you could change it and make it girl stuff but this is Boys week so, do a few fun extra things just for your boys! Love, The Tipsy Girls

These are FAB ladies! I only have girls, but I know my man would love it if I came up with some fun hunting/fishing goodies to put on top! I also want to do this for my girls. It would be such a fun little thing to do for them when they get an "A" on a test!
Oh, by the way, I made a cute little glittery chipboard box and it turned out so cute! Thanks for sharing your fun ideas with all of us!
