I continue on in my need to get creations made to sell at the two sales I am attending in November. I enjoy creating.... good thing, as everything I make seems to take longer than expected. These teabag art cards are no exception.
Although I do drink tea, I have friends that save there teabags for me that I use in making these cards. Each card uses 2 teabags, which I add pressed flowers, leaves, and bits of material too.
I made cards in a variety of colours - with a variety of flowers, petals and leaves.
Each card took about 20 minutes to make, and I have made about 60 cards. I have decided that that will be enough, as although I enjoyed making them, I wouldn't enjoy it if I were to make more.
The decorated tea bags, wrap around to the back of the card, and are only glued along the fold, and a little bit on both sides of the fold.

Now, I just have to package them up, and they will be ready for the sale.
I wonder what I will work on next...
Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!
