High Hopes Challenge #109

HELLO EVERYONE.....

It's time for the High Hopes Challenge
This weeks challenge is
...3D...
Alter or create a 3D Box or Bag

My first project is an altered tea box using the
adorable "Teddy for Tea" image
and " Me N' You" sentiment


I covered a box of Lipton tea with DP
I embossed the image with black and
painted it with Tombows. I used my Nesties
ovals for the frames. I made the rose for the
top of the box with my small pear punch for
the petals and my MS frond punch for the leaves
and MS fern punch.

***********************

My next 3D project is a tea bag holder.
I am using an older High Hopes image
from their original catalogue...

"Aunt Shirley's Tea"
and
"Tea Tag"

To create the card tea bag holder I used
the directions by Beate Johns @ SCS

I added an extra folder inside for mine as
well as making the card larger.
I embossed the images with black
and painted the cup and tag with
Heavenly...H2o's. The flowers and
leaves are painted with Tombows and I used
a Gelly Roll Metallic pen for the gold trim.
The border is done with a MS punch and
I added some flat backed pearls.

The tea bag in the cup is a Lipton individual
tea bag in a net bag and
the bags inside the holders are individually
wrapped in packages.
