Cupcake Box

This fortnight's challenge at Top Tip Tuesday is to create anything but a card.

I've used a tutorial I found last week on Stempeleinmaleins for a cupcake / muffin box.  I used it to contain a huge Bathsoap in the shape of a cupcake, which is decorated with frosting and topping etc just like a real cupcake.

I used citrus colours to match the cupcake wrapper too.

The tutorial was really easy, and it creates a gorgeous sturdy box shape.  

I guess you could also easily resize it if you wanted too.

The only thing I would change if I was to make it again is that I think it looks much better in coloured base card, whereas I used white, which I was not so happy with.  

Oh well, I'll know for next time!

Box Recipe:
