Friday Fun # 66 and Friends With Flair

Happy Friday! A lot of my friends are in California for CHA. I hope they are arriving safely and having a great time. For the rest of us, it's time for this week's Friday Fun Challenge. This week's Challenge, brought to us by Sara is to make a tea-themed card or project in honor of National Hot Tea Month. Pretty cool idea, don't you think? Since I have some lovely Unity Stamps that are tea-themed, I decided to combine the Friday Fun Challenge with Unity's Friends With Flair. Once I decided to do that, I had another issue....which tea-themed stamps do I choose? They are all so wonderful.....SO I decided to make TWO projects for today.

My first project is a Tea Bag Holder. Here's the front :


Here is the Inside of the holder:
Stamps: Unity Aug 08 KOM Rememeber Happiness and Dec 09 KOM Delightful Moments
Paper: SU: Old Olive, Yo Yo Yellow, Basic Grey Origins
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
Accessories: Ribbon, Nestabilities Labels 6, Linen Thread, Dimensionals

And here is a card I made with the Tea Pot from June 09 KOM:

Stamps: Unity June 09 KOM Perfect In Every Way
Paper: SU Old Olive, Yo Yo Yellow; PTI White; Basic Grey Origins
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa; SU Old Olive
Accessories: Square Nestabilities, Foam Tape, Lace Trim

Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to check out the Unity Blog for other Friends with Flair and the Friday Fun Girls' blogs (below). Have a great day!
