DIY Party Cake Topper with Cricut

February 19, 2020

It’s no secret that I love my Cricut Machine. In fact, I have several of them, and they are absolutely the work horses of my craft room. My son recently turned 16. So, I took the opportunity to create a DIY Party Cake Topper with my Cricut. It was perfect, and I couldn’t love it more!

If you decide to make a purchase through my links, I will be paid a small commission for it. This doesn’t cost you anything additional.

Party with Cricut

I can’t think of many parties that I have hosted with out using my Cricut machine for something. My Cricut Explore Air 2 and Maker machines can make nearly any party decoration.

My very favorite Cricut party piece is the DIY Cactus Cupcake Stand I made several years ago. And, last year, I hosted a Cookies and Milk Party that I made all of the decorations for using my Cricut!

Make a Cake Topper with Cricut

This project is fairly simple, but, I saved the cut file for you if you want to make the same one.

If you want to make a different Cake Topper with your Cricut, follow these simple steps, and you’ll have the perfect custom topper for your party.

Supplies

Step 1

Cricut Design Space Screen Shot Happy Birthday

Open Design Space and select a file or type the text you want to use.

Step 2

Un-group or Slice the Cut File so that you can weld the text or image together.

Step 3

Move the text or images so that they are touching in several spots. This will create a stronger cake topper.

Step 4

Send the project to cut.

Step 5

Weed the excess card stock. And peel the cutting mat off of the card stock. This will keep your card stock rigid.

Step 6

Apply a bead of hot glue to the bamboo skewer and glue the card stock image or text to the skewer. You may need to use two skewers if you have a large image.
