Prima Marketing Midnight Magic Halloween Kit: DIY Dimensional Cupcake Toppers
If you want to make this Halloween season special, all you have to do is make some cute cupcake toppers that you can add to homemade or store bought cupcakes! Let's take a look at how you can use the Prima Marketing Midnight Magic Box Kit to make some sweet toppers.
Hey, crafty friend! Prima Marketing just released their 2025 Halloween Box Kit, Midnight Magic and it's a Halloween lover's dream. I always love to throw a good party or make treats super cute for my little niece, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use this kit to make the most adorable layered cupcake toppers.
For this project, you'll need these supplies:
- Prima Marketing Midnight Magic Box Kit
- Bamboo Skewers
- Small Scissors and/or Craft Knife
- Pom Pom, Tassel Trim and/or Chiffon Ribbon
- Hot Glue Gun
- Foam Adhesive
- Paper Trimmer
- Metal Dies and Die Cut Machine or Electronic Die Cut Machine
- Awl, Embroidery Floss and Needles
- Other Basic Crafting Supplies
You can shop the supply list, including the limited edition box kit, below!
So let's get right into this tutorial!
- Die cut your base shape twice. I used a mirror black cardstock.
- Die cut a nesting shape from some of the patterned paper in your Midnight Magic Kit twice.
- Die cut any other shapes you want--I die cut some spider webs and a stitched flower die.
- Die cut a small triangle from some basic cardstock--this will be a template.
- Trace your triangle template onto some of the acetate from the Midnight Magic Kit using a Stabilo pencil then cut the traced shape out with scissors.
- Choose ephemera or fussy cut some elements from your patterned paper in the Midnight Magic Kit.
- Using an awl and foam craft mat, pierce holes along the patterned mats and the ephemera pieces.
- Stitch along the pierced holes using a running straight stitch. I used 3 strands of coordinating cotton embroidery floss. If you die cut stitching dies, stitch those as well.
- Use some foam adhesive to attach your paper mattes to the base die cuts, back and front.
- Add your embellishments to your front piece, layering in your acetate triangle, die cuts, pom pom trim and flowers. Layering with foam adhesive will give you more dimension!
- Add a few gems for some bling.
- Use craft tape or washi tape to secure a bamboo skewer to the backside of the back piece then add hot glue to fully glue the pieces together.
- Place foam adhesive around the bamboo skewer, peel the backing off, add liquid adhesive to the foam adhesive for some wiggle time, and add the decorated front piece on top.
- Trim off excess length of the bamboo skewer and add to your cupcake!
On the tag version of my cupcake topper, I even added chiffon ribbon and some of the charms from the Midnight Magic Kit! The possibilities are endless and I could have spend an entire weekend making a horde of these toppers they are so cute--but I've got more project ideas for this kit so I only made three. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and idea; until next time, happy crafting!
