Here's my take on the cupcake. I couldn't find a template I really liked, so I found a free downloadable coloring page online and used that to make my own template.
After cutting two complete cupcakes out of white card stock, I used Terrifically Tacky Tape to adhere at the top and made a score line on the front piece for easy opening. I then cut separate top and bottom pieces out of different DPs. Before adhering the frosting to the base, I Cuttlebugged it with Soft Swirls EF and then colored the swirls with a clear Sakura pen. In looking at it now, I wish I'd also colored around the edge of the frosting.

Love how those dots mimic that lovely candy confetti and WOW on that wonderful textured and glittered frosting. Great ingenuity on creating that cupcake template.
