Stamping on coffee cups and more

We interrupt Card Yahtzee to bring you stamping on coffee cups and so much more! I’m busy getting ready for Mistletoe Market this weekend. I’ll have gift card holders, treat holders, Family Craft Night Kits, ornaments, and more. Even poop! I made a discovery while crafting with the mini coffee cups; I had to share it. I’ve seen lots of decorating on the coffee cups with paper and ribbon. I haven’t seen any stamping on them. I decided to give it a try, because it would be so much faster than die cutting wraps for them. They are over the top cute! And easy! and fast! That’s my jam!

I stamped the mini coffee cup with images from the Frosted Gingerbread stampset using Real Red, Old Olive, and Cinnamon Cider ink pads. I added a few red rhinestones. I needed a narrow ribbon for the coffee cup lid so I used the red and white ribbon from the Playful Pets Trim Combo Pack. I made a quick tag with a scrap of Basic White cardstock and the Delightful Tag Topper punch. It’s so stinking cute. I can’t wait to make more. I’ll fill it with Hershey’s peppermint kisses and leave room for a gift card.

I’ve been making luminaries from the mini jam jars. They are beautiful, white, silver, and sparkly. I’m not sure who created the 2 designs I CASEd using the Giving Gifts Dies. I created my own version using the Evergreen Border punch. In today’s video I shared how they are made. The vellum measures 1 3/4 x 6 5/8. Do you have any other ideas for luminaries?

Then I moved on to poop. Yep. Reindeer poop. Snowman poop. Gingerbread man poop. Elf poop. And unicorn poop. Those on the naughty list get poop. Don’t worry it’s all candy in 3 1/8 x 3 1/8 acetate card boxes.

Tomorrow I’ll put together more sets of cards, random collections of 10-12 cards for various occasions.

I hope you enjoy today’s video and get lots of ideas for your gift giving and crafting. If you are local please stop by my booth this weekend. I’ll have a door prize drawing and would love to catch up. On Thanksgiving afternoon I’ll have a virtual card class that you can join while you relax after dinner.
