Christmas Teabag Card

Not a new idea, but this is the first time I have made my own Christmas “cup of tea” cards.

I’ve made the card using my Sizzix Gift Card Holder die and a strong double sided paper I found in Paperchase a couple of years ago.

I think double sided paper is perfect for this idea. I’ve mat and layered the verse on silver and the patterned side of the paper.

And then just added a bit of faux stitching.

I couldn’t decide whether to embellish the front of the card, and in the end decided not, the pattern was enough,  less is more!
