I've been in a serious funk lately. I've made some incredibly ugly cards, some of which have wound up in the trash and unfortunately wasted a lot of paper. I had these grandiose ideals about some beautiful cards and they just didn't pan out the way I had intended.
My local Publix Grocery Store sometimes has K-Cups on their clearance rack for only $1.00 a box! Needless to say I will buy them all! The last time I picked up 10 boxes. They vary from the Publix brand (which is very good), Starbucks, New England Coffee, McDonalds, and many more. I keep half and give the other half to my sister.
Speaking of my sister, who just happens to be a teacher...so I decided to make a teacher appreciation gift with my haul of K-Cups. I scoured the internet to try and find one I liked, so I settled on this one as my inspiration.
Using my Coluzzle and my Scor-Pal I constructed the box. It holds 4 K-Cups. Then I used my Cricut to make the coffee cups. They are embellished with a few paper punches, a crimper and some apple brads.
The tag was stamped and then attached with a homemade button and some baker's twine.
Inside the box, I made a little chalkboard and stamped the sentiment. Then I die cut teacher out of some glitter card stock and finished it off with a paper punched apple.
I thought the coffee holder needed a little jazzing up, so I added a die cut apple.
