MYO Cupcake Sticks

I mentioned that I made my own cupcake picks for E's party. {technically I made them for H's party too}
I started off with a design that I wanted. For his party, I purchased a digital package that include a design.

They, as almost all are, were 2 inch circles so I got my 2" punch and punched them all out.

Then, I grabbed red and blue scrapbooking paper and punched circles (2.25" and 3")
I layered them and, with a glue stick {overbuying H's school supplies definitely helped here!}, glued all three pieces together.
From there, I hot glued my stick to the back. I originally started with lollipop sticks but, after one, switched to popsicle sticks instead
