Giant Cupcake Cards

Good Morning everyone.

Today im sharing cupcake shaped cards that ive made for my 2 oldest niece's birthdays. Ive combined pretty papers with lots of glitter card as both love their glitter - well what girl doesn't😁  As their birthdays are within 2 days of each other i tend to make them similar cards to stop arguements. 




approx 6x6" in size(without the candle)  I first printed off a cupcake outline to make my own template. To first make my base card i placed the top of the cupcake template over the edge of my card blank and drew around it and cut out.  On another piece of white card i drew around the whole cupcake and attached patterned paper to the bottom half to act as the cupcake wrapper, i then wrapped some ribbon around the attached to the base card.  On another piece of card i drew around the frosting/icing top of the cupcake and cut out, i then dry embossed with embossing folder to add some texture, i added some die cut glitter circles as decoration.
I hand cut a candle and flame, attached to the base and added my icing on top. 
I then computer printer my sentiment and die cut into a circle, and added a die cut number to one of the glitter circles. 
Just showing it side on standing up.  



This is the one i made for the older sister, i also added glitter glue to the flames on the candles. 

Just showing them both together.  Who wouldn't love a giant cupcake on their birthday😋
