These truly do make for a cherished keepsake and those family and friends lucky to receive a piece for Birhdays or Christmas during 2011 were very touched. All Framed Art Squared pieces are hand made with attention to detail and no two pieces are the same. My partner has 4 young nieces in his family and these are the Framed Art Squared pieces made for their Christmas gifts.<br />

Although the cupcakes looked nice, I was looking for more height, dimension and personalisation. The light bulb moment came when I combined my love of cupcakes and papercraft and came up with idea to create my own Paper Cupcake Toppers. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Ater a year of experimenting with different card stock, stamped and printed images and adhesives, I finally came up with a prototype that would become the marketed item under the Baxter and Rastas label.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EXBNlYrRUao/TvuJCeRVG_I/AAAAAAAABio/mIYbPSo5Ju4/s1600/Slide1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300px" rea="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EXBNlYrRUao/TvuJCeRVG_I/AAAAAAAABio/mIYbPSo5Ju4/s400/Slide1.JPG" width="400px" /></a></div><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">All hand made Paper Cupcake Toppers by 'Baxter and Rastas' are published on my Cupcake Toppers blog, which you can find on the following link or via the 'Link to my Blogs' on the right hand side navigation bar.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Paper Cupcake Toppers are not edible and are intended to be a cherished Keepsake of the occassion. The lollipop sticks are made of plastic and the topper is made of paper. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">The front of the cupcake topper can be a printed image, a stamped image, a logo or a photo to name just a few. Quality Stampin' Up! card stock is used and comes in a large variety of colours to choose from.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The back of the topper may be personalised for the occassion, for eg. Happy 6th Birthday Emily, Welcome Baby Eliah dd/mm/yyyy, John and Jane Wedding dd/mm/yyyy, to name just a few. A co-ordinating ribbon may be added to the lollipop stick to complete the cupcake topper. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">The size of the scallop circle paper cupcake topper is approximately 4.5cm height x 4.5cm width for the topper with the overall length being 12cm with the lollipop stick. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Hand made Paper Cupcake Toppers will be available for purchase during 2012 by placing orders at the Baxter and Rastas Craft Market stalls or Online. Further details will be posted on the Baxter and Rastas blog over the coming weeks so please check back soon.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">For quite some time, I have been playing around with different names under which I could market and sell my hand made items. The Baxter and Rastas name idea came together by combining the name of my sister in law's grey British Shorthair moggy with the name of my white long haired domestic moggy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Hand made items sold under the Baxter and Rastas label are of high quality and have been created with every attention to detail. </span><br />
