Project Notes
Use these notes to make the printable actually work in real life, not just look good in a search result.
Print the cup shape and color the strawberry area before adding tape.
Start with a simple outline, print at 100% scale, and keep the design inside the safe page margins.
Cut slowly around the straw and lid, because those corners can wrinkle.
Color while the paper is still flat. Large marker areas are easier to smooth before tape is added.
Tape both sides and reinforce the bottom edge with a second narrow strip.
Cover both sides with overlapping strips of clear tape so the paper resists tearing and smudging.
Stuff from the bottom opening, then seal with overlapping pieces of tape.
Use small pieces of tissue, clean grocery bag, or soft scrap paper. Too much stuffing makes seams pop.
