How to Make a Fingerprint Coffee Cup Card

Step 1. Print and trace your coffee cup card onto cardstock paper. Cut out each piece.

Step 2. Using a paint marker or paint, have your child add several fingerprints to the front of the card. Green would be cute too!

Step 3. After the paint dries (the markers are super fast!) add a stem and leaves using a brown and green marker.

Step 4. Cut out your coffee sleeve and lid and glue onto the front of your card.

Step 5. Add a fun message inside along with a gift card from your teacher’s favorite local coffee shop!
