I would have loved to be making the trip up to Leeds today for training with Jules and the girls but unfortunately I can't make it today as Hubby has gone to Tottenham to watch Wolves.
I have decided to be very self-indulgent and have my own little crafting day so I have abandoned all the housework ( my excuse is a bad knee and I need to sit down lol ! ) and apart from occasionally feeding the washing machine I have been playing all day.
I'm not sure what Jules and the gang are up to but I'm sure there will be some cupcakes involved so I decided to play with my new cupcake goodies. Whilst browsing the internet I saw somewhere a really cute little box but the cupcake case was made by pleating paper. This looked a bit fiddly for doing in class so I decided to make my own version..........
The top is made with the petal cone die and doesn't the Manhattan Rose embossing folder make fantastic textured frosting ? Colour combination is Melon Mambo , Pretty in Pink and Pool Party. This is a really sweet box and ideal for a small item of jewellery or a chocolate treat.
This is the card to match...........
The punch makes it soo easy to put these together and it is very therapeutic ! Like my real cupcake too ? Baking and crafting in one day- bliss !
Girls, I hope you all had a fab day and I look forward to a bit of blog hopping to see what you've been up to !
We missed you today Julie but good to know you were with us in spirit!!! Loving the cards and can you believe some of our cupcakes had that butterfly on them!! Jules x
