Here's another great project that uses retiring Stampin' Up! products that I am not going to have enough time to fit into a class! I received this cutie in a swap a few months ago (November, actually, I think!). I featured it here a few weeks ago and have received requests to post the directions, so here you go!

Paper Sizes:

- Repeat first step with 9” x 1 ½” Riding Hood Red cardstock strip.
- Rotate paper ¼ turn. Align the 4 ½” side up against the ruler of Simply Scored. Score at 1 ½”.
- Adhere Riding Hood Red strip to Very Vanilla layer with Tombow.
- Stamp “Get Well” with Versamark. Emboss with White embossing powder and Heat Tool. Stamp remaining words and circles on cup with Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, and Sahara Sand ink.
- Stamp medallion circle from Circle Circus on twice on Brushed Gold cardstock with Versamark. Emboss with Black embossing powder. Adhere to cup with Tombow.
- Cut on each 1 inch score line up to where the score lines intersect. Remove small rectangular end piece and create a flap by notching the ends of the remaining tab. This flap will be used to hold the cup together.
- Pre-fold all scores. Turn paper over and attach Sticky Strip to all flap ends.
- Adhere flap to inside creating cup form. Adhere remaining flaps to the flap on the opposite side of cup.
- To create handle use the 1 ¼” and 2 ½” Circle punches to create a ring. Cut the ring in half. Score ¼” flaps on each open end. Adhere half circles together with Tombow Multi-adhesive, but leave flaps open to attach to outside of cup with Tombow.
There you go! If you make this, please send me a picture and I will try to feature it here! I'm starting to think of more uses for this design, what can you think of?
Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!
