It's Teacher Appreciation Week and this is the gift for our fabulous neighbor who happens to be my son's preschool teacher. I saw these frappucino cupcakes on pinterest a while back and have been waiting for an occassion to make them!
chocolate cupcakes with vanilla frosting and drizzle of caramel |
I made the cupcakes from scratch. The last time I tried to make cupcakes from scratch was a total flop, but these turned out A-Mazing if I do say so myself. The receipe came from food netowork.com and can be found here.
To go along with it I made a card that says "Thanks a Latte". I used the sketch inspiration at Freshly Made Sketches to design the card and have entered it in the challenge over there.
I used the backside of a starbucks cardboard cup cozy The cuts are from Kate's ABCs (great fonts on that cartridge!) |
I used glue dots to seal the bottof of the cup cozy to create an envelope. I slipped a starbucks gift card into this little envelope and my son signed it. |
LOVE this. I have to steal it for end of the school year gifts. You have an Etsy shop yet?
