Subtle Gift Box

I know it's been a while since my last post and have been tinkering but it's mostly been just that.  Tinkering and such and not complete projects but I hope to start doing at least one craft a week again.  

I thought I would start off by posting this Gift Box.  It's not very involved but I do like the way it turned out.  I used a punch-out box template and used decorative tape on the to and bottom...I do LOVE these patterned tapes!  Then I took a fanned embellie with a little gem in the middle and placed it in the center. 

Viola!

Some of you have been asking me via email where I have been.  Well, I do post most days over at My Blissful Journey.  I would love for you to join me over there.  And we update at least 2 to 5 times a day over at Sororitea Sisters, too! 

Loose Leaf Tea Gift Box

Many of you know I LOVE tea! So much so that I drink between 8 and 15 cups a day! YES...you read that right! Between 8 and 15! I also write about tea - I write reviews! Check out the SororiTEA Sisters Website - sometimes we give stuff away too - so visit often! So...because I have so much tea in my posession I decided to give some away to family and friends this holiday season, too! Over the past summer I found a huge bulk of funky gift boxes that I bought for super cheap! I decided to decorate a few of them to put this tea in. This week for the LSS DT we were to create something that held food or a wrapping or covering for food. I thought I would do this! It's not my best work but I am going to do a few more!
I used Lindsay's Holiday Digi Paper here on top of Martha Stewart Paper. I used a punch and some gems, too!
