Cupcake Anyone?

It's Sunday today so at Paperworks Co that means it's an Anything But A Card Day. Here's my contribution:
I've seen these cupcake holders on a number of blogs, and I've been toying with the idea of making one for a while, and TAADAA! Here it is! It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be to make, and I think it makes a great little gift.  Here's a picture of the top view of the cupcake holder, without the cupcake:
I've used Medic Abby as the focal image for this item. My original idea was to make this cupcake holder for someone who was a bit under the weather, and needed a nice treat to boost them up. Isn't she a cute image? She's great to color too. I've used my copics on her.  I cut out some triangles to make a banner and used some yellow and white twine to put it all together.  I believe that the paper I used was Bella Rose, but don't quote me.  LOL   To cut out the hole for the cupcake I used my circle spellbinder die.    If you'd like to try to make your own cupcake holder, here is the template and tutorial I used.

Be sure to link up your creations over at Paperworks Co! I'd love to see what you come up with.
