Final Press Cake Boxes

Hello Bloggers!

I really enjoyed making these Stampin' Up! cake boxes. I used Core Destination card stocks from Joann Fabric. The papers are shimmery and made such elegant cake boxes.  I made two sets of cake box.  I was planting to give them for raffle at the craft show but I think I am going to keep one set.

I made the top of the cake the same.



and here is  the individual cake box. I love those strips. they made the cake slices look so real!

Here is the side of one of the cake boxes.  I made this set first.  The scallop icing were made using circle scallop nestabillities.


Here is the side view of the second cake boxes. I love this one!


Aren't the bows and the pearls so elegant.  Here is the bow tutorial.  This is the set I am keeping.
