I have two of these wonderful carrier in different colors - they are great for cupcakes if you use the tray, and for cookies and such without it. I use it A LOT (once a week, or more), and decided it needed a little something. Here's how it turned out....
I really do wish contact paper came in different colors,
because it really is cheap and easy to find...
I know this may be a give, but just in case...
set it on your mat paper-side-down
set it on your mat paper-side-down
Set your blade depth to 3, and your pressure to 2
(any highter, and it'll cut through the paper)
...and voilà!!
It cut perfectly, without cutting the paper backing! It's easy to remove, and adhere! Now I have to make the orange one just as pretty! :)

Wow! Fantastic idea!! Great idea for your treat container, too!!
That is soo cute! I am pretty sure that contact paper comes in different color. I use the clear contact paper for my transfer tape...works perfectly! :)
