About this pattern

A small cupcake kept under a glass dome on a cake stand. The cupcake has two coils of white icing with a pale pink shade, a red cherry with a short stalk on top and a pink striped paper case. The dome is a tall bell of pale blue glass with a small rounded knob on top and two white streaks of light on its left side, a long one above and a short one below; it stands on a turquoise pedestal stand with a thin plate, a narrow stem and a flared foot. Dark brown outline round every part. Full crosses only. It is 33 by 48 stitches and uses eight thread colors.

33 stitches wide by 48 high: 1,028 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Very Light Antique Blue 3752, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 5 more).
