We aren’t making cards today. Instead, we are making the Heartwarming Hugs Coffee Carriers and Cups! They are just SO adorable! And we will be filling them with goodies to share with our family and friends.

These cups and carriers make impressive looking gifts. But they are actually not difficult to make. This is thanks to Stampin’ Up and their amazing products that cover every detail.

Today’s Video

Even more pics of the Heartwarming Hugs Coffee Carriers and Cups!

This first example of the Heartwarming Hugs Coffee Carriers and Cups is made with items in the Heartwarming Hugs suite of products. I loved adding in the silver star charm. It actually surprised me how it really pulled everything together.

I did add the tag from the Wishes and Wonder bundle. But any label punch or die could be easily substituted.

The tiny coffee cup stamps are so fun! I like that you have the choice of stamping or coloring your image. This cup was filled with chocolate candy kisses.

Options For A General Winter Theme

Additionally, you can simply change out your colors and DSP to totally change the theme of your carriers.

The “You are the marshmallows to my cocoa” is my favorite sentiment in the set! I simply stamped it, fussy cut it, and adhered it to my tag topper.

Dont’ be afraid to step outside the box with your ideas. I stuck to the hot chocolate idea. But adding gift cards or small gifts would be fun too! I could imagine these carriers being decorated for all types of events. Wouldn’t they make pretty gifts for someone to ask “Would You Be My Bridesmaid”? The Peony Garden DSP would make it look so elegant.

As always remember to be kind, send a card, and do something creative!
