My Mum used to only drink regular tea. Just the normal. But I then kept discovering some green tea at home when I visited and in general it seems that loose leaf tea is all the rage...so I put that together and created tea bags filled with our choices of loose leaf teas! I ordered the tea bags from ebay which would seal with heat - an iron! We filled them with the teaspoon or so recommended for a cup of tea, added string and a little label to distinguish each one and voila, handmade tea bags!
To match the gift, I made a tea themed card to go with these. Some purple card, a white lacy doily and a cookie cutter created this card. Loved using doilies to make cards, and could do any simple shape with them for a really cute feminine card or scrapbook piece.
Happy Mother's Day Mum! ♥
