More coffee projects created with Coffee Cafe

Item #143745

This week I am featuring the stamp set Coffee Cafe and coordinating framliets, Coffee Cups.  Soon, this stamp set and framelits will be retiring and I wanted to give  you one last chance to see all of the wonderful projects you can create with it. 

The treats I created for today's post can be given  as teacher appreciation gifts, to service providers, friends and co workers.  I like how simple they are to create, but they definitely show that I care about the person I am giving them to.

For this project, I purchased some of my favorite iced coffee drinks.

Here's how I created this project:

1.  Stamp the coffee cup onto whisper white cardstock, and cut out using the coffee cup framelits, then I colored the cup using my stampin' blends markers.  I used light and dark crumb cake and dark soft suede markers. 
2. cut a piece of crumb cake cardstock to 2" x 4 1/4" to create a tag, and punched the top using the Scalloped Tag Topper (item #1133324)
3. Stamp random coffee beans onto the tag using soft suede ink
4. Adhere the coffee cup to the front of the tag
5. Stamp the whipped topping onto whisper white cardstock using smoky slate ink.  Attach this piece to the top of the coffee cup on the front of the tag.
6. Cut the cardboard sleeve using Early Espresso cardstock and adhere to the front of the cup.
7. Stamp the "thanks a latte" image onto whisper white cardstock and cut using the oval framelit.  Attach this piece to the front of the cardboard sleeve.
8. Tie a box using the linen thread and attach to the coffee cup as shown.
9. Use a piece of Polka Dot Tulle ribbon (item #146912) to tie the tag to the front of the coffee drink as shown.

For this project, I used a Lindt chocolate bar that I found at my local Target store. 

Here's How I created this project:

1. Cut a piece of crumb cake cardstock to 2" x 3".  Score on the 3" side at 1 1/2".  Fold in half and burnish. 
2. Cut the various coffee cup pieces and set aside.
3. Put the chocolate bar into a 2" x 8" cellophane bag (item #141703)
4. Using a small stapler, staple the crumb cake card piece over the edge of the cello bag to create a tag topper.
5. Attach the coffee cup piece to the front of the tag using dimensionals.

Twelve Weeks of Christmas - Week 1

Twelve weeks of Christmas crafting Ideas

Today marks just 12 weeks until Christmas.  I can hardly believe it.  Every year it seems like the school year begins,  and the next thing you know,  BAM!!!,  the holidays are here.  So this year I have made it my goal to stay actively on top of the holidays by starting early.  And I hope I can help you, too.  Each Monday I will be sharing a cute treat box or bag, maybe even a recipe, or some other item to help you with your gift giving and decorating tasks. 

Today I am sharing a tutorial for a small box that holds a hand sanitizer.  During the holidays, and really all throughout the year, I like to give small tokens of appreciation to my mail carrier, cashiers, bank tellers or other service people.  I also like to carry these small gifts when I am shopping during the holidays because I like to give them out to other shoppers who look like they have had about all the shopping they can handle.  The smile it brings to their face is priceless. 

I have created a you tube video to help you create this gift box.  What will you put inside?  Share your ideas in the comments below.  Now grab a pen and paper and get ready to get started on your Christmas crafting. Trust me when I say, it is never too early.    I hope you will find the projects I am sharing fun and useful to you this holiday season.

• base (I used cherry cobbler) cut at 4" x 11" scored on the short end at 1" and 3", scored on the long end at 3", 4", 7" and 8"
• designer paper pieces cut at (3) at 1 7/8" x 2 7/8", (2) cut at 2 7/8" x 7/8"  and                          (1) cut at 7/8" x 1 7/8"
