Coffee
Cup - Gift Card Holder ~ Whimsy Fundamentals
She has an SVG file I wasn’t able to use so I questimated and simply glued the
edges and bottom of 2 layers of patterned paper with the "lids" cut off and the gift card insert is the white daisy coffee cup cut short so it would fit..
Card Front Gift card holder insert
White Daisy CS cut with the Artistry Circut Cartridge (pg. 5) @
5 ½ inches – and cutting off 1/2” from the bottom so it would fit Add an “envelope”
to hold the gift card: cut patterned
paper 3 ¼ X 3 ¾. Use a 1” circle punch to create the dip to be able to pull out
the card. Fold under ½ inch on the
bottom and sides, miter the corners and glue the folded tabs to the middle of
the cup. I trimmed ~ ½ “ from the bottom so it would insert completely. Draw a line to show the edges of the lid –
Marvy - LePen (Z1979) The White Daisy cup card holder is inserted into a “Cup” created
from two cuts of Whimsy patterned paper – one that is 1/8” wider and another that
is ½ “ wider. The lid portion of the
colored cups are cut off, each side of the widest paper is folded back ¼ “ to
create tabs that are glued onto the sides of the other patterned paper, and the
bottom is also glued leaving the top open to insert the “White Daisy Cup”
holding the Gift Card.
The coffee cup sleeve is cut from Kraft CS (Z1375) cut slightly wider
so that I could create a realistic look byusing the lined embossing
folder. A “crimper” would also work.
Before crimping/embossing, stamp with “Thanks So Much” from “All the Thanks”
(B1536) Put it all together. Pull up the
lid and out comes the gift card.
3 x 3 card ~ Whimsy Fundamentals
White daisy base cut at 6”X3” and folded in half. First layer,
Smoothie CS cut at 2 7/8” and inked around the edges with Smoothie ink. Second layer, Whimsy diagonal pink cut at 2
3/4”, distress the edges, and using the “Way to Go” (D1700) stamp, add the
hearts, wavy stamp, stamp inside the wavy lines and stamp the solid circles
using Smoothie. The white and gold ribbon (Z3189) is died with diluted Smoothie
ink – just squeeze the lid with the ink pad closed and ink adheres to the
inside of the lid, open, add a little water to the ink on the lid and you have
“water colors”. The sentiment -“This
card is a paper hug” from “True Love” (D1711) is stamped on a white CS chevron
cut tab, inked around the edges and popped up with foam tape The shimmer brush
was used on the hearts, and the wavy lines, and the row of round shapes was
embossed with clear embossing powder.

Blue Love paper strip with one row of
LOVE (length cut at 5”) inked around the edge with Crystal blue, glued to a 3 ¾”
X 5” white daisy CS, also inked around the edges. The banner base was cut from the Whimsy blue striped paper using
the new Cricut Cartridge, Flower
Market, pg.14. The top layer is cut from Sea Glass glitter paper. The friends
banner is adhered to the card over ½” strips of Whimsy patterned paper and
ribbon with a knotted strip of the blue love ribbon covering the middle
strip. The strip above the bottom Love
strip was created using a background stamp from the Flower Market Cricut Collection.
