Time For CreativiTEA

Happy Saturday Everyone and Welcome!!  This month over at AlteredPages.com our design team is teaming up with Leaky Shed Studio's  makers of some really awesome chipboard products!! Our theme is Tea cups and Tiara's. So, in keeping with this months cross promotion and  needing to create something for the "UNRULY PAPAER ARTS" E-zine I decided to alter one of their sweet little chipboard  tea cup and saucer pieces and incorporate it into my handmade Tea Bag gift Book .



 
 
 
Love this chipboard piece. I took bits and pieces of  Graphic 45's Secret Garden paper and collaged the tea cup and saucer. I then used some gold embossing powder and embossed the edges to give the tea cup that sweet rich vintage teacup look. Once completed I then adhered it to the cover of my handmade teabag book.
 
 
 
 
 
 
This little 5x7 book makes such a great gift for that special someone who loves tea!! I created it using the Secret garden paper and some purple cardstock. I then created little tags using a tea cup image from AlteredPages's collage sheet  "Tea Party Flowers" and adding a sweet quote about tea.
 
 
 
 
 
 
This little book has 6 little pockets just right for will holding 6 single serving tea bags or  whatever you would want to place in them.
 
 
 
 
 
I had such a wonderful time creating this and can't wait to send it to a special person!!. I think she is just going to love it!!
 
 
 
 
 
Well that's it for today.  I want to Thank Unruly Paper Arts E-zine for featuring my little book in their April 2014 edition. If you have not seen there wonderful art e-zine just click on the link to head over and become a subscriber!!
