A Little Latte gift

Oh......I just love this whole A Little Latte Suite!!!

Years ago I made a similar box/cup with a different coffee stamp set.

So when I got this bundle earlier this month I just couldn't wait to make a mug.

 

Check out this cute little mug shaped box that I made a few weeks ago

for a friend & gave it to her when we were together in Houston.

See how I made a box first.

And then die cut 2 pieces of card stock layered with DSP for 

both sides of the box to make it look like a mug.

I think it turned out so cute!

Notice how I used a half circle of cardstock that was punched out of the

Decorative Circle Punch to put under the mug.

And I punched the hearts out using the Bee Builder punch!

I used the largest die from the Countryside Corners Dies 

for the mug front/back.

And I then used 2 smaller Countryside Corners Dies to make the mug handle.

Here is the pattern on how to make the box. 

*6 3/4 x 5 1/2" piece of card stock

*score on the long side at 2 3/4 & 4"

*score on the short side at 1 1/4 & 4 1/4" 

*snip the box bottom as shown on the pattern above

*use Tear & Tape to hold the box together

I also made a little gift card holder for my friend too. 

I just took an envelope, folded it in half, cut the top flap in half

with scissors & sealed only the left side- 

so that the right side would remain open

& I could slide a gift card down into.

 

You can CLICK HERE to see another envelope gift card

holder that I have posted on my blog.

This A Little Latte Suite isn't in any catalog publications.

It is only shown as an OnLine Exclusive.
