To make it, I printed a template on one side of a piece of card and printed a patterned paper from the Creative Crafting World CD "Mix & Match Papercrafting Collection" on the other side. I cut everything out and edged all the pices with blue ink, then added the front of the cup using 3D adhesive, thinly around the edges and very thickly in the middle to give a bit of curvature.
I stamped the sentiment on the "teabag" then folded that and the tag in half and sandwiched twine between the halves. The teabag is inserted into a slot in the card front. It could be made removable but once I had it positioned how I wanted, I stuck it in place on the inside.
I finished it off with die cut flowers and leaves to match the printed design, with pearls for centres.
I am sharing this with

My three tipples too but not necessarily in the same order! I tried a vegetable box from Rotaro and have been very pleased with the contents. Ordered more from M&S too which complimented what I hade from the other company. Been doing some more cooking and made sour soda bread and bubble and squeak patties. Never baked so much in my life. Hope your managing to get your food ok. hugs Mrs A.

Such a great shape! The tag/teabag is really cool. Thanks for joining us at Little Red Wagon.
Even as a dedicated coffee drinker I can appreciate your very pretty cup and saucer. I think I have had 2 cups of tea since the beginning of the lockdown. Lovely card.
Thank you for joining us at CD Sunday Plus.
