Our first project this week comes from Scor-pal Designer Jennie Harper.


I am excited that Scor-Pal and Core-dinations are teaming up to bring this fun Blog Week! Today I wanted to share a coffee cup I made using Kittie Franken's tutorial found here.


Supplies:
Stamp set: Hello Winter (Penny Black)
Die: Standard Circles (Spellbinders)
Adhesive: Scor-Tape

Instructions:
Place your 9" x 4 1/2" piece of card stock in the top right corner of Scor-Pal. Score at 1", 2", 3", 4", 5", 6", 7" and 8". 


Turn paper and score at 1 1/2".


Turn paper over and distress score marks with the Sand It Gadget


Cut each 1" score line to where the score lines intersect. Remove the small rectangular end and create a flap by notching the ends and add Scor-Tape.


Fold score marks to form cup. Turn over and attach opposite flaps using Scor-Tape.



To make the handle, use two circle dies to create a ring.


After they are die-cut, cut circle in half and score at 1/4" flap on each open end.


Attach together and adhere handle to cup. 


Next up, Diane Zechman:


 Using the Scor-Pal and Core Impressions paper (Pink Paislee- Modern Prints Collection), I put together 2 Keurig K-cup Caddies following the directions here.

 First the paper was sanded to reveal the color core. Then I attached the finished caddies back to back with some Scor-Tape to hold 4 Keurig pods. Here's the front side...

 And here's the other side...
   


A view from the top with it empty...
   


 I also made a matching 3x3 notecard with some scraps that were left over. A coordinating envelope was created using the Scor-Pal and Scor-Envi, following the measurements printed right on the Envi tool. How handy is that?!

   

 These would make a perfect little gift for a coworker or friend. I hope you have fun making them yourself!
