Tea Gift Box

Howdy Crafters - I was excited to discover I won a WRMK Envelope Punch Board on a blog hop - Thanks to the Queen for this lovely prize! Click here to visit her blog -   this puppy does more than just create envelopes - and Laura, the queen uses it to create snack holders. I found a tutorial to create this cute Tea Gift Box.  Although, the tutorial I used is for adding tea bags and very nicely I must say, this gift box can be used for other items to tuck inside as well for gift giving.  Click HERE for the Tea Box Tutorial - [For the 4 corner scores in this tutorial- I used the Scor-Pal rather than her method of using the punch board] - Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed week! ~ Gail ~
