Hello everyone!

I am here with another card to link up for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop using Simon Says Stamps Latte Gift Card Slider.  This is a very versatile die, you can make it as a gift card on a card or do what I did.  I created an ornament that is a gift card holder that can be hung on a Christmas tree.  I plan to make several of these as gifts this season.

I die cut the coffee cup die and the inside piece twice.  I then die cut two more cups with design paper.  I adhered all the pieces together.  Notice the string on the handle, I will use this to hang the cup on the Christmas tree.


This is the inside card, I inked up the bottom of the inside card and added the sentiment, the cinnamon sticks and snowflake.
