Tea Treats - inspired by tea bags


Care for a cuppa? In this last video project of the month I'm doing crafts I'm not totally sure what they are. They're kind of ATCs but they are not the right size and they might appear little like tags or cards, too, but they are not quite those either. But no matter what they are, they were inspired by a tea bag and its sachet. 

I'm an avid tea drinker. My passion is Earl Grey, but I've been trying to learn away from black tea and get excited about green tea. However, these sachets were inspired by Earl Grey and I used an actual product packaging as the template for these reproductions. I made a master sheet for the sachets and decorated them using these cute little critters with a tea cup and tea bag. You can see the process video here (link) on my YouTube channel.

Even though they are not ATCs, I'm happy to swap these or just send them to a new home, if anyone would like one. The sachet measures about 5,7x7,0 cm or 2 1/4" x 2 3/4".

Thank you for stopping by today! Wishing you a fine weekend!
