Update: All my custom Starbucks “Create Your Own Tumbler” inserts are now on their own page… Including the “How To” instructions I wrote up so you can create your own custom insert.

Enjoy!


Starbucks Create Your Own Tumbler

Another idea I’m stealing borrowing (Yeah… That’s the ticket!) from TJ of zazzafooky.com is to create your own custom insert for the Starbucks “Create Your Own Memory” Coffee Tumbler… I had loads of fun creating my own inserts, and will probably make up a lot more. Starbucks also offers 9 ready made inserts available for download here at their website.

All you need to do to make your own insert is:

  • Purchase a Starbucks “Create Your Own Tumbler” at starbucks.com, or on ebay.
  • Download the template for the older 16 oz tumbler (psd format only), and create your own insert with it… The possibilities are endless!
  • Print out your insert using a color printer with high quality photo paper for the best results.
  • Carefully cut the insert from the page… Be sure to cut exactly on the boarder of the picture, and the white background. Do not leave any of the white background behind, as it will be seen when you put your insert in the tumbler.
  • Unscrew the bottom of the tumbler, pull out the insert that comes with it, and replace it with the one you made, then screw the bottom back on tightly. Et voilà… You’re done!


I’ve done up three of my own so far:

Birthday Cake It’s hard to believe that it has been 7 years since Morgan came into our lives, but it’s true!!! The time seems to have flown by so quickly, but I still fondly remember how nicely his little body fit in my arms when he was a newborn, and the euphoria I felt over his arrival… Over the last 7 years we have enjoyed watching Morgan grow from an infant into a toddler, then into a young boy, and are looking forward to the future to see what it may bring. Hopefully more good things, than bad.

Our life changed immensely when Morgan was born, but that change was definitely for the better. The rewards of parenthood have definitely outweighed any of the drawbacks. It had taken us 5 looooooong years to get pregnant with Morgan, so he is even more dear to us because of that. Even when we found out last year that Morgan had autism we realized that we were still so blessed to even have him in our lives. He has brought so much joy to our home. :)
