Papertrey Ink Bloghop - May '09

Hello ladies - it's bloghop time again. If you don't know what this is click here!

The challenge for this month was to use Yellow - think this qualifies?? lol. I used one of Laurens timeless templates for this - the 'Get a handle on it'. But because I'm greedy and want to put bickies in with my tea bags, I needed it to be a little bigger! So once I had the templates cut out and stuck together (summer sunrise PTI), I chopped it in half.

I also used a hole punch to punch out two semi circles to highlight the design I was going to stamp on the mid section. This also allowed me to run it through the cuttlebug and swiss dot it a bit. I stitched around the edges just to finish it off.

I made a mid section from Lemon tart cardstock and stamped it with tea pots and the wee circular stamp from the Tea for two stamp set. I popped my sentiment up on dimensionals and stamped a wee tea cup from the Anniversary set.

Then I put the top and bottom onto the mid section to complete the box.

All supplies PapertreyInk, including that delicious big chocolate button!

I didn't have much time tonight and so I was grateful for how fast these templates come together!

Can't wait to see what everyone has made!!! Have fun hopping ladies!!
