Sizzix ScoreBoard Blog Hop #2- Cupcake Holder Pin Cushion

Thanks for stopping by the Sizzix Blog Hop!  ScoreBoards are a brand new kind of die
designed for Sizzix by my friend, designer Eileen Hull.  ScoreBoards cut and score matboard to create boxes, totes and folders.  As the ship date for the dies gets closer, Eileen realized that the best way to show them off was to ask some of her designer friends to play with them and see what they could whip up.

I was delighted to be included with this fabulous group of designers!
Just wait till you see what they have done!

Here is how it will work….Every other Wednesday from now until January, one of the eight ScoreBoard dies will be featured on our blogs so you can get a peek at the dies…
Today’s projects have all been created using the Cupcake Holder (#656142).
Scoreboard Cupcake Holder Pin Cushion
I thought the Sizzix Cupcake Holder was a perfect base to make a unique Pin Cushion.

I received the Cupcake Holder pre-cut on matboard from Eileen as they are not yet available in stores but you can check out the Scoreboard Line of dies out at Sizzix.

I painted the inside & outside of the cupcake holder with
Ann Butler Design’s Iridescent’s Sheer Copper
Then on the inside, I dry brushed with Ann Butler Design’s Iridescent’s in Onxy by Earth Safe Finishes
Let dry. Assemble cupcake using the Ultimate Glue by API Crafter’s Pick overlapping edges where holes line up,
glue three buttons over holes.  Then I covered a 3″ Styrofoam Ball with fabric
using the Ultimate Glue by API Crafter’s Pick.

Place a few glass marbles in the bottom of cupcake holder to give it some needed weight then glue covered Styrofoam ball into Cupcake Holder to finish off the Pin Cushion.

Now it is ready to be used or given as a great gift!

Be sure to check out the designer’s blogs below for more great ideas using the Cupcake Holder.
