This past weekend, a few of my crafty YouTube friends and I decided to get together and meet. We spent the weekend getting to know each other, shopping, and crafting. It was great! I enjoyed it so much! One of the things we did was bring was a card, a hand made item, and a scrappy gift for each person. I saw a video from MsLiberty25 on YouTube where she showed a cupcake stand and cupcake boxes she made for her entry for the Graphic 45 design team call. She included a tutorial and I just had to make one, or in this case four. I need to make one more for me!
This was a labor intensive project but it turned out beautifully. Each of the cupcake tops is made from one inch flowers punched out from an entire 12 x 12 sheet of paper. They are attached to half of a styrofoam ball with pins from the sewing notions wall. Here are some individual photos of the cupcakes which are actually boxes (the tops come off)…
I made the Cupcake Box with Lid Template Cutting File from The Cutting Cafe to hold the cupcakes. Unfortunately, I re-sized the box but the top came out too big as I did not re-size it correctly. I did not have more paper or more time to re-do the tops so I had to add adhesive to help the tops stay on. I cut out the top using the circle shaped cutout and I used old packaging to add an acrylic window. I used circle sentiments on the lid and front from the All About Cupcakes Printable Stamps File also from The Cutting Cafe.
Next I made very quick cards using the Cupcake Printable Stamp Set 1…
Thanks for stopping by! Here is the video…
oh my these came out beautiful……..
