Candy Corn Ruffle Card

Since I needed to make one more Halloween card, I decided to use the 10/15 sketch from Sketch Girl and incorporate ruffles for the Moxie Fab World Ruffle Challenge:
Here is my take on the sketch:
I pulled out the SU Sweet Treat cups for this one and just used K&Co DP - no stamps - OMG?!?! I don't know what it is, but lately I really like the look of just DP and no stamping. To dress it up, I sewed the ruffles onto the purple paper, then ran ribbon over the top to give it a skirt look. Inside (sorry forgot to take a picture!) I cut a large circle to put over the sweet treat cup and folded it. Then I put permanent glue on one side of the circle and semi permanent on the other side, then put a ribbon tab on the semi permanent side so that it could be opened. Anyone have better ideas about making the Sweet Treats openable without ripping the card apart??? I've been trying to figure out a way to do it and it's driving me crazy!
