"TEA"rific

Tonight I am starting to feel under the weather. I feel a cold coming on... not good! I made myself a cup of black tea, and came to my stamp room to clear my mind of germs and illness. Yuck! To complete the theme, I brought out my Morning Cup stamp set. My first thought was that it would be cool to have a holder that fit my tea bags. Envelopes were too big and I didn't want to make a card with pockets and ribbon.

Thinking about projects I've complete in the past, I remembered Matchbook Folders. So simple to make, requires only half a sheet of cardstock and scraps.

Top flap tucks into the bottom to close

Tea bag fits perfectly. This project can also be used to hold candy/chocolate.

Crumb Cake Cardstock was perfect for this project. If you click on the pictures, you may notice the fibers in the paper (SU! Cardstock is made with recycled paper). It greatly resembles an actual matchbook.

I am hoping to have a tutorial posted for this soon. If you cannot wait, contact me to attend a stamp class. I would love to teach you how to complete this fast and simple project! Ü
