Football Themed Birthday Cupcakes

Few days ago, I had a last minute order for a birthday.  I talked to our client and went through idea of the birthday theme.  The birthday boy plays in a football team, and the colors of the team is blue and yellow gold (kind of like the UCLA colors).  And my client said they don't like the fondant to be big, just something small, but still cute.

So I made some miniature footballs and the jersey to go with the theme:

I am glad that the birthday boy and football teammates enjoyed them.  My client told me they ever had the fondant on the top.
