I'm so excited to share my latest project with you!! When I was at the CTMH convention this summer, there was another consultant there (Hi Gail!) who had the cutest little mini-Starbucks cups included in her display. She was kind enough to share her source with me and I ordered some as soon as I got home.
I've been thinking and thinking about these little cups ever since and I finally knuckled down and created one today and filled it with some delicious German chocolates to take as a little giftie for my hairdresser (Hi Birgit!).
I have a couple of tips about covering these little cups:
1. Take one apart and use it as a template for your cover. Cut your main cover out of B&T Duos paper. Use your template to cut a cardstock piece down to act as the sleeve.
2. Use Memory Book Glue Dots to adhere everything to your cup. Every other adhesive I tried fell off within minutes of application.
3. Don't try to adhere your accent piece flat. Just don't! Trust me on this: you will only end up frustrated and in tears. Don't ask how I know! LOL
Here is your shopping list for this project:
1772 Memory Book Glue Dots
X7197B Zoe Paper Packet
Z3169 Cricut Artbooking Collection
Scraps of White Daisy, Sunset, Slate, Black, and Cranberry
