monochromatic halloween cupcake toppers

Hey there friends! While we were sick at our house, I had to put a pause on some posts I wanted to schedule. I know Halloween’s over, and I’m totally ready for the holidays, but I just had to share this fun idea with you. This black and white party idea could obviously work as Halloween party decor, but if you have a loved one who’s celebrating an over the hill birthday, this would work great too!

This Halloween season I’ve been inspired by ravens, owls, moths, and other vintage style critter images. I wanted to create something like that for my cupcake toppers, but I didn’t have a Halloween themed stamp that looked anything like that. So, I grabbed my Precision Press Advanced, a set of bird layered stamps, some silver, grey, and black ink pads, and went to work!

I love the monochromatic colors! They’re perfect for Halloween party treats, or as cupcake toppers for an over the hill birthday party.

When using layered stamps I recommend starting with the lightest color of ink first, and then working in order to the darkest.

Once I stamped all of my black birds, I used my Detail Scissors to fussy cut the shapes. To dress up my cupcakes, I made some cupcake wrappers with the DIY Party Board and some black patterned paper.

Then I glued the wrappers together, and glued some black and write striped paper straw sections to my blackbirds with the USB Power Mini Glue Gun. Hot glue is my go-to adhesive for 3D paper crafts.

To finish off my cupcake toppers, I added black seguin stickers for the eyes, and black bows I made with the some black floss.

I love the texture that the monochromatic colors and the layered stamps create!

The toppers together with the black marble cupcake wrappers look pretty cool too!
