Have I got a super cute idea for you! 

The holidays are all about sweet treats, aren't they?  I never cook or bake, but somehow the holidays get me feeling like I just might (p.s. the cupcakes for this tutorial were purchased).  But if I don't bake, I can at least give my sweet treats that special homemade touch, right?

Take some decorative tape and a toothpick...

Supplies
Supplies
Wrap the tape around the top of the toothpick...

...and cut a notch out of it.

Super cute, right?

How about two strips of tape...

Add rhinestones and then adhere the snowflake to the flag.

You can use lots of different kinds of tape.

This is a roll of label tape from TapeSwell.

Wraplabel
I wrapped the label and cut a notch (not pictured)...

Smallhearts
...painted some hearts on a book page and cut them out.  I adhered a heart to each side of the label tape.

Final
Super easy!

Try kicking your cupcakes or other baked treats up a notch with some easy-to-make tape toppers!
