The Tea Box

Hi Everyone,
Friday, I trotted off to Circleville, Ohio, outside of Columbus, Ohio, to take two classes from Terri Sproul. Terri is a gifted artist and hosts a free get together on most Tuesday evenings. Terri also has a FB group, All Things Terri Sproul, and it is available to join. Terri shares techniques and info on different products.

Terri  is in town from California, for the next couple of weeks visiting friends, going to a show and teaching classes. The classes I attended were held at the nicest store, Creative Chaos. Loved her store, lots of Graphic 45 and things to go with those fabulous papers and many other great stamps and "stuff". The store owner is Angela Beavers, what a great lady. Had a blast.

The first project I am sharing with you today is my fav, although I really like the 2nd one as well.

This project is a tea box, made using Graphic 45 papers from the Botanical Tea Collection. These papers are fantastic.



I wanted to make this box really sturdy and in doing so my back two corners got wonky, however, I just distressed the box as to make the whole box look really old and well used.Wait til I show you the inside.



The stripes are the backside of the paper I used. This box itself is made with just one 12X12 sheet from Graphic 45. The postage stamps and little cards are from a 2nd sheet in that line. Those are little tea bag covers inside the box. Aren't they cute!!


And the stamp images are so perfect to attach to the end of the tea bag string.

Thank you Terri for a great project, this class was so enjoyable!!

I am submitting this project to the following challenges:

I will be sharing the other project with you Thursday. In the meantime stop back Tuesday for my Craft-Dee BowZ post for April.

Have a great week!!
