My Son asked me to make a box that holds a cupcake so he could wish a friend a happy belated birthday…I resurrected an old design of mine.  Yes-we made the cupcake too!

I'm reposting this project from 2010 to let you know that I have posted instructions on the Instructions Tab.

These particular Pumpkins were made with 10-11 strips of 3/4" (or 1") x 5-1/2" (or 6") strips of cardstock.  Before assembling the strips were put through with various Textured Impressions Embossing folders and then embellished with leaves from the Days of Gratitude stamp set.
