Cupcake Liner Flowers

Most people buy cute cupcake liners to bake their cupcakes in, but they never look as cute after the baking as before.  Icing Designs solved this problem by using them to decorate the top of the cupcakes instead of the bottom:

They have a tutorial to show you how to make these cute cupcake liner flowers over on their blog.  And they are perfectly pink for Valeneint's Day too.

Valentine Treat Packages

In Arizona I was always looking for a cute way to wrap up store bought treats because the kids weren't allowed to take anything homemade to school.  In Texas that isn't the case, but store bought treats are still ten times easier if you are crunched for time. 

And they are still really cute and easy if you have a printable or template to do a lot of the work for you.

You can get the template for these cute treat cups at Martha Stewart:

And you can print out this cute box over at The Giving Madam:

And Food Art Party is letting you print these cute cupcake wrappers for free too:

Cupcake Wrapper

I have been in love with these black ghost cupcake wrappers from Paper Orchid for a while now.
And although I wish I could make them, I don't have the laser cutter or the patience and skill to do that by hand.

Then I saw these cute cupcake wrappers from Yummy Cupcake Crafts:


And I scrapbook! So I have a TON of fun paper that I could make those with! But I knew I would need a template. So I decided to make one and make a tutorial for you. (Ignore the horrible pictures!! It was 9:00 at night when I decided to do this!)

First you need a cup. A paper cup would work the best, but I only had plastic. And you want it to be the size of the cupcake tin you are going to use:


Then cut straight down to the bottom of the cup (as straight as you can) and cut the bottom out:


Lay the cup flat and trace around the cup on a piece of cardstock or chipboard. (There is not picture of me doing the actual tracing because a plastic cup doesn't lay very flat and I needed both hands.

When you are done it should look like this:


At this point you would cut it out and trace it on the back of whatever cute Halloween paper you have. But it was at this point that I realized that this looked really familiar and a template for these already existed.

So instead of doing all that work (you can if you want to though...) go get one of these:

The cup holder things that keep you from burning your hand, not the drink. Although you can get the drink too if you would like! I recommend their peppermint hot chocolate.

So get the don't burn your hand cup holder thing and use THAT as your template!

And make some fun cupcake wrappers for Halloween!
