Kathryn’s Tea Caddy~DCWV Garden Tea Party

Kathryn from Life on the {Scrap} Beach has been making a Tea Caddy on her Thursday show.  I created this for a very special friend out of the DCWV collection Garden Tea Party.  Kathryn did hers with Prima’s collection Sun Kissed.   I wish I had room on my counter I would make one for myself.  Really, had a lot of fun making this project.  Thanks, Kathryn for the inspiration.

I really love this paper pack it has soft pinks, mauve and brown and glitter, too.

Isn’t this so cute!  I took this right from the show Kathryn did last Thursday.  I used a real tea bag and just cut it down.  Kathryn made hers with flock in it and it looks just like a tea bag.  Inside the tiny envelope she wrote a quote:

Kathryn did hers with embossing powder and it look just like metal, of course, I couldn’t find my gold embossing powder….(what else is new)LOL  So, I used my gold dabber.

Isn’t this paper line so perfect for this!  I love the birds, butterflies and tea cups.  Here is the top lid:

Linda, I hope you like!  I had a great time making it for you.  Thanks again, Kathryn for the inspiration.  I really didn’t have any intentions of making one but after my conversation with Dawn, I just had to make it.  Be sure to check out Kathryn’s shows every Thursday on ustream.  Have a great week.   Hugz, Z
