Hey everyone. I have been wanting to make one of these cards for a while and when I saw this thread on the cricut message board, I realized that I had some of these candy molds (collecting dust!!) in my stash and had to use them right away.
There is a great video on how to make these cards here. The only real difference is that I used Wilton's truffle candy molds to do the "cherry" on top of the cupcake instead of the cup used in the video. If you use your Michaels coupon, you can get 14 of these cups for a little over a $1.
What I did:
I cut a 1 1/4" circle out of the card, using the center point function on my cricut, to put the candy cup into place. I used mini M&Ms to fill it. The cupcake is cut at 5" using the Sweet Treats cricut cartridge. I ran the "frosting" through my cuttlebug using the d'vine swirl embossing folder. The tag is cut at 1 1/4" using the George and Basic Shapes cricut cartridge. The birthday wishes stamp is from Mixed Messages that I bought at Papertreyink.
I already know that I am going to be making a lot more of these in the future. If you make some, I would love to see the pictures!!
