Use round signs or MDF circles of the same size to create a top for your cupcake stand. Using hot glue, attach two (or three) round signs together to create a thicker, sturdier top. Use a heavy book on top to ensure a secure bond as everything sets.
Trace and cut your scrapbook paper down to the size of the round sign.
Mod Podge the scrapbook paper of your choice to the surface of your round sign. Use a brayer or a squeegee tool to help push down and flatten the paper or fabric and squeeze out any excess Mod Podge trapped underneath. Wait for the Mod Podge to dry.
Cut and glue the trim you would like to use for your cupcake stand - for mine, I cut strips and attached it using hot glue. Wait for it to dry.
Protect your scrapbook paper surface by using Mod Podge to seal it. Brush a thin layer, ensuring you cover the whole surface and edge and let it dry. Repeat three or four times.
Attach the stand part of your cupcake stand using hot glue. Let set before using.
Notes
Use thick, quality scrapbook paper to lessen creasing when Mod-Podging your scrapbook paper.
