Today's tutorial features a little 4 oz. coffee cup transformed into a darling snowman treat cup. It will hold one Kuerig K-cup, tea bag, or several pieces of chocolate. This would make a great gift for your co-workers, teachers, mail carrier, etc. While this one is a cute Christmas gift, you could easily change it to make a Valentine's cup, St. Paddy's cup, Easter cup, or birthday cup. The ideas are endless! I purchased my cups and lids from The Webstaurant Store.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Using the template made from taking one of the 4 oz cups apart, cut out the piece to decorate the cup from the Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper Stack (135824) . If using the Paper Stack, the paper will be a little short. Wrap around the treat cup and adhere with Sticky Strip (104294). Where the paper did not cover the cup, add a small strip of coordinating cardstock and adhere with Sticky Strip.
2. To make the snowman to add to the front of the cut:
* Face: Punch out a circle using the 1-3/4 Circle Punch (119850). Draw eyes and mouth. Punch out Pumpkin Pie (126945) cardstock with the Petite Petals Punch (133322) and cut one of the petals out for nose.
* Hat: Cut or punch out a 1-1/4” square and a 1/4” x 2-1/4” strip from Basic Black (121045) cardstock. Emboss with the Decorative Dots (133520) Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Cut out leaf in Garden Green (102584) cardstock. Add Cherry Cobbler Baker’s Twine (123125) and tie in a bow. Add to hat.
3. Stamp a piece of Whisper White (100730) cardstock with “Christmas Wishes” from the Ornamental Pine (135104-wood, 135107-clear) stamp set in Crumb Cake (126975) Classic Ink. Layer it over a piece of Garden Green cardstock that has the bottom cut to look like a ribbon. Punch two holes on the right side and place straw through the holes.
4. Stamp two pinecones in Crumb Cake and cut out (sorry, no punch for the pine cones.) Add to the banner with Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430). Finish by tying a piece of Metallic Silver Baker’s Twine (132976) around the straw.
Happy Stamping,
Karen
