Cut off a strip of cloth 20x40cm or twice the lenght of the frame.

Cut the fabric width wise in half so you have 2 equal pieces.

Slide out the plastic window and separate front from back of the frame.

Remove the stand from the back of the picture frame as well.

Spread glue on the back of the frame and glue the edges of 1 piece of fabric on.

Place the front on the 2nd cloth, draw a rectangle in the hole with a marge to glue.

Fold the piece of cloth in half, give a cut in the middle and cut out the rectangle.

Before you stick on the cupcake parts ...

... you fill them with some fiberfill.

Stick a ribbon at the back.

Tie the ribbon on the front, draw a face on the cupcake using a marker and stick on a tiny felt mouth
