Happy Monday to you! It's stamping with Grandma and friends today! I can't wait! I love going to my Grandma's retirement home and crafting with her and some of her friends. I have made some simple cards this month (which I'll share with you soon:) as I have Cole with me today so he may be a handful and the ladies do require a LOT of assistance sometimes so we'll see how we do! Wish me luck and a whole lot of fun!
Today's project is completely inspired by my GREAT friend Missy Shipman! I can't wait to see her this week so this post is for her! This is one of the projects we did at the Tea for Two class last week. It's a slider package that can hold a tea bag as well as a special greeting inside.
The package is made using the Fancy Favour Box...notice the scallop on the top of the box. Rather than using the entire box, you only use the front panel (and include about 1/2 an inch tab around on each side) and the back panel. Attach them together using the tabs and you have a sweet little packet.
Are you loving this DSP yet? It's called Enchantment and will be FREE starting on January 24th when Sale-a-bration returns! Can't wait!
The other little sneak peek is the brad on the top...do you see it in the scallop flower? Isn't is ADORABLE??? Again, it's some free product coming at the end of the month!!! Get excited as there are some AWESOME options this year!!!
The "neat" thing about the slider card is that the two tags die on the inside doesn't come all the way out. It is kept captive in the holder so this sweet package all stays together. I will be sliding a little tea bag under the ribbon in the back and a special little note under the ribbon on the front. Can't wait to share this with a friend!
Alrighty, have a WONDERFUL day today...make it special for you and those around you!
Take care,
Heather
Such a great idea for another way to use the Fancy Favour box die! Always love your creations!!!

Adorable! I'm wondering if I could switch up the stamp set and maybe it would hold a Ghiradelli chocolate. Or two? :) Maybe for Valentines day. Love this! Thanks for the great ideas!
