March Operation Smile Project-Cupcake Recipe Box


I am really excited about this months Operation Smile project. This box can be used for so many things. In this project I used it for a recipe card box, but the possibilities are endless. Below you can see a project where it holds 2 king size Kit Kat Candy bars and I think it will also make a great box for cards as well.
If you would like to purchase the template visit my etsy store at
The template will cost you $1.00 and all of the proceeds will be donated to Operation Smile.
I will tell you that I found all of the recipes for the cupcakes here. I did edit the size of the recipes so they would fit in the box on 4x6 cards. They are also the same size used on this project.

I was thinking that you might like to have the already formatted recipes. So that all you have to do is print them out on cardstock and cut them out. There are a total of 10 recipes (2 per page) What do you think about those 5 pre formatted recipe pages also being sold for a $1.00 donation to Operation Smile? I gave you the address above for all of the recipes, but would it be easier if all you had to do was print them out? Leave me a comment on what you think, and I will decide based on those comments.

You are so very talented, these boxes are awesome! I think donating $1 for the ready to print recipes is a great idea...esp for those computer challenged among us!
