Simply Adorned Cupcake

December 21st!  Seriously!  How awesome is that?   I can't wait!  On a total NON Christmas sidenote, any of you stay up to check out the lunar eclipse last night?  I stayed up to see it, but it wasn't the best viewing night.  Hopefully someone, somewhere will have some great photos to check out:)

Anyhow, back to why you stopped by!  These little cupcakes are not an original, and as a matter of fact I've made a ton of them.  I first saw these at Founders and sweet Selma made 140 of these beauties!  I wouldn't want to do 140 but a few are fun!  This was a gift for one of Mark's teachers.  I made her some inserts for the 1 x 1 1/4 inch charm.  So, the inserts were in the cupcake and the charm was in the box tucked in the bottom of the red, gift giving box.  

I had thought of using a cupcake box and started with the template I used in my Simply Babies online class.  Then when I was over at Inking Idaho (Thanks Becky) I saw her cool idea to use a box with a "see through" portion.  So, I combined the two ideas, included a little "step" in the bottom for the necklace and this is what I'm left with:)  Hope you like it!

Enjoy your day!  I may just be back with a little MDS for you this afternoon!

Take care,

Heather
