Tea Please!

I came across these fill your own tea bags and thought they were a great idea.
They are VERY simple to make, I bought loose leaf tea from a specialty tea shop and filled each bag with a heaped teaspoon of leaves. A strong cuppa is a good cuppa!
The bags were drawstring so it was just a matter of closing them off and attaching a tag!
(Punched, stamped and trimmed to size)
The little box was one from my stash so I decorated it and stamped the label. 
I typed and printed brewing instructions on the back and filled it with the tea bags. 
All ready to be given away! 






I used a round scalloped edged punch for the tags.
I cut each circle in half and then folded them in half again to make the tag,
trimming off the excess and gluing them together.



I used a selection of papers from My Minds Eye and Martha Stewart Stamps.
