I saw someone on another group with this and couldn't resist it. Mel Stamps lists 50+ Coffee/Tea Templates on her blog, so pop on over and check it out. The template was actually designed by Sherry Graves - thank you Sherry for being so generous with your templates shares.This little mug would make a great gift idea for a friend or colleague. It would be great, also, for Christmas gifts. What better way than to present this little mug with chocolates and tea/coffee in it and wrapped in clear cellophane with a personalised hand made tag attached? It's always good to have a few spare projects just in case there is an unexpected occasion that you need something for.
Recipe:
Template
Pearlescent card (A4 size)
Kaisercraft Clear Stamps - Friends set
A2 Cuttlebug Embossing folder - Textured designs
Versa Color 158 Lapislazuu
Creative Memories tag punch
Ribbon
Method:
- Print template off onto your A4 card
- Cut out
- Place the template into your Cuttlebug folder - I did it twice and each time matched up the lower edge of the folder which I placed on a 'seam' and then managed to get it to look like a continuous pattern
- Place the handle through your Cuttlebug - do it when the handle is still open
- Ink distress all areas
- Using double sided tape or a strong adhesive like Gel Medium, adhere where indicated
- using a scrap of card, punch the tag
- Stamp the sentiment
- Distress the edges of the tag with the ink and a sponge
- Place a hole or slot in the top of the tag and thread through the ribbon
- Ties the ribbon to the mug handle
- Fill with goodies to give away.
