Midnight Shenanigans and an Anniversary Gift~


Midnight yard decoration by a few of Morgan's friends. She's already cleaned it all up with the help of Brett who thought it was all pretty funny, especially the forks in the lawn.



My Happy One Year Anniversary gift to Paper Tales.
These mini cupcake boxes are a diminutive version of my regular sized cupcake boxes.
You can find the tutorial for assembly on the left side bar if you are interested.

Paper sizes for these mini boxes are:
Box: 6-3/4" square, scored 2" all on sides
Lid: 4-7/8" square, scored 1" on all sides
Insert: 3-5/8" square, scored 1/2" on all sides

I cheated and bought the cupcakes, knowing I would not have time to bake yesterday before the party. Cupcakes are carrot cake mini cupcakes from Albertson's. I purchased the cupcakes first, so I could determine the box size I needed to make.

It's been a year since I was alerted to this fabulous store in Point Loma and I have been blessed getting to know the women and customers who flock to this store. Last night, and for the rest of the weekend, they are having a party to celebrate. It was quite fun last night, just hanging out, lots of laughter and celebration!!
If you're local, stop on by, you'll be glad you did!
