December Stamp Club project- mini coffee cup caddy

Mini Coffee Cup Caddy
Isn't this adorable? I saw this idea at Convention & had to make it!
The mini coffee cups are from a restaurant supply store- 4oz with lids.
 

 
Start with Poppy or Cranberry cardstock 6 1/2" x 8 1/2".
Score each side at 1" & 2", crease folds.
Cut away the outer corners & cut to the inside score mark.
Fold each side over to form the box & use strong adhesive to secure. You're kind of making a double wall on each side by folding over the edges.
 
 
Next, take a piece of 2 1/2" x 9 1/2" cardstock.
Score in the middle at 4 3/4" & a 1/2" on each end.

I used a narrow oval punch to create the handle & glued this piece together to make the caddy handle/divider. Use strong adhesive to glue the ends in the center of the caddy.
 
For the cups, you'll have to take apart one cup & use it as a template to trace a pattern.
I used the White Pines paper & stamp set from the Scrapbooking Workshop on the Go kit to stamp the holly leaves & berries.
The tag stamp is from the Packages, Boxes & Tags stamp set.
I also used Poppy & Fern inks, Poppy twine & kraft cardstock for the band (which I ran through a crimper tool).
 
 
These are so cute to make as gifts for candy or other small treats.
Merry Christmas!
