Here’s all of my projects designed to send someone tea, so keep scrolling down and down and down….:

You’ve Got Tea Mail!

This week I’m sharing another one of my tea card ideas. As you may know by now, I love to send my friends a warm and cosy hug-in-a-mug over the mail, for instance when I know they’re coming home from a long and hard road trip, late at night. Nothing says “Go ahead and elax for some Me time” like a glass filled with nice, hot tea you just got from your friend who’s thinking of you.

I try to come up with different designs every time, especially when sending it out to the same person (like my dear friend Christa 🙋🏻), and this week it is a pocket card. After all, not everything has to be complex and difficult. Just go for it, keep it simple and decorate to your heart’s desire. Pay attention to the details though, like having the color of your tea bag coordinate with your design papers 🙂

Enjoy the video and pics below! And do leave a comment, I really like to hear from you all.

 

 

Shabby Chic Tea Card

As you may have noticed, I like to send tea bags over the mail by way of sending someone sort of a ‘warm hug’. I’ve done several of these cards before, and I try to come up with new designs once in a while.

This week is such a time. I designed a way to tuck your customized tea bag envelope onto the front of your card so that it remains easily removable, yet fixed in place.

The papers used are Shabby Chic 6×6″ pad by Studiolight, and a sheet from the Wonderland collection by Stamperia.

I hope to have inspired you to send someone such a fun hug-in-a-mug yourself after watching this week’s video 🙂

See you next week and let me know what you think!

 

Spring-colored Chocolate Bar Envelope (and some tea)

One of the great craft ideas floating around on the internet is what I would call a chocolate bar envelope. I think lots of people have made these by now, but only after I had the pleasure of receiving one myself, was my attention drawn to it.

I waited for the right occasion to create one myself and when the moment came, tadaa! 🎉 There it was, my very own version.

I sent it to my friend Christa, so it would be waiting for her when she got home from a short vacation. I mean, nothing says Welcome Home like chocolate & tea don’t you think? 🙂

Have you ever sent someone food or snacks? 🙂 Let me know in the comments!

Tea Gift: Swing Bag Card

Posted on by

Tea bags are – in my experience – a fun gift to send with a Welcome Home card. This week I’m sharing my idea to send two, by way of what I’ve since dubbed a swing bag card: a double card with a swinging bag hanging from its ‘nook’ fold 🙂

The very sturdy double-sided design paper I used was perfect to use as is, with no cardstock at all. The sheet is called Rooster Row and it’s from 49 and Market’s latest collection, Cottage Life.

I also created a little stand to prevent the card from being pulled down by the weight of the suspended tea pouch.

All in all a pretty simple card, yet with an original design element. Let me know what you think in the comment section below! And of course, like & share! ??

Four Summer Cards with Studio Light

I’m a big fan of the Dutch brand Studio Light, which offers, among many things, several lovely 6×6 inch pads which simply consist of different patterns within a certain (combined) color theme. These pads don’t have posh collection names, but are simply numbered 01, 02 and so on. These themeless and therefore relatively neutral pads offer the special opportunity of creating projects with which you could combine almost any embellishment from any collection.

The following four, happily colorful cards I created with Studio Light pad nr. 05, combined with several different embellishments and some cutapart tags and labels from Panduro and Scrapberry’s.

 

Card 1 – Summer Day


I stamped the inside with 6 different stamps:
