Birthday Pop up Card: Detailed Cupcake

29 Aug Birthday Pop up Card: Detailed Cupcake

Here is my second attempt at the cupcake popup card. This time I created the card with a standard backing, which makes the card a bit thicker. I've also changed the single candle to a numbered candle. I actually made this card for my brother in law this weekend. He just turned 35. My nephew turned 10 not too long ago, so I made him a card also. Here is what the card looks like if I only used one sheet for the cupcake:

I like the simple look to it, but I think most people would like to add the colors to the cake and icing. Therefore, I made additional cut outs for the cake, icing and flames.  For these cupcakes, I made the cake red and the frosting white.  Its supposed to look like red velvet cupcakes because that's my favorite.  Here is what the card ended up looking like:

In my final version, I'm going to make the candles separate so it can be customized for any number.  The tutorial for this card can be viewed here: Detailed Cupcake Pop Up Card Tutorial.
