For the cover page stamp cupcake image on water color paper using Garden Patina Archival. Paint cup image using Zig markers. For cake apply Opaque Texture Paste on image and then stamp on texture paste using Rose Madder ink. Apply glitter on texture paste and keep aside for drying. Once dry, glue it on cupcake album. Stamp a cherry using Jet Black Archival and paint it with Zig markers. Cut image using coordinating die. Apply Crystal Lacquer on cherry. Glue it on cupcake after drying. Stamp a sentiment on white cardstock using black Archival and glue it as shown.

For inner pages cut 13 pieces of cupcake from pattern paper using inner cupcake die and glue them. On the back side of cupcake glue magnet and the pattern paper. Cut round 12 frames from white cardstock using eyelet circle small & basics die. Apply glitter on all frames. Cut pictures of babies using circle die. Paste pictures on album and glue frames.

To decorate pages, stamp some sweet shoppe treats images using black Archival on water color paper and paint with Zig markers. Cut images with coordinating dies. Cut some sentiments and small tags from designer paper using dies. Cut some designer paper using arrow dies to create banners. Glue elements on all pages as shown.

To create closer, stamp and cut bow using cupcake stamp and die. Paint using Zig markers. Cut a strip of white cardstock measures 1/2" x 5". Glue bow on the center of the strip. Fussy cut the strip around the bow to create clean look. Glue magnet on one end of strip. Paste other side of the strip on back side of cupcake. Our magnetic closure is ready.
