Tea Boxssssss!

Will I've been working on Tea Boxs and though I would share with you all the different ideas I used.
Now don't laugh to hard on this one....
It's my Out House Tea Box

I know there just to CUTE aren't they??? Will when my hubby saw the girly ones I made he said that would make a good Out House so I had to give it a try... I took some crackly paper and some woody paper and scored it like wood planks and then sponged over that so the scoring would show some.... then I took a circle and double cut a moon.  The I just took some black floss like string and made a little handle....

Now the roof was made from some Creative Memories Shimmer paper, it had just enough shine to it to make it look like metel then I scored it every inch and on each side of that I scored again 1/8 inch and did my foldes...then just sponged around it to make it look old...... I was supprised how cute they turned out. 

 Now here's my Girly Tea boxs... So sweet looking I think.  I put a Tea pot on the front and the Tea cups on the back.  On these I even put a little top knot on them...
Here's a better shot of the little top knots... The tops just needed something and I didn't want to put a bow on them since there going to be in a kitchen... so I though of make these little things. 

 Now here's the ones I made using my old tea bags.... they are just so colorful I hated to just throw them away so I though I would try this out....
and this is the top and inside top too with more tea bags.....

And here's my last ones.... my John Deer tea boxs....
This is the front and back view.
I just have 2 more to make so I better get going and start my last two... !

Will here's mine for today;

I made a book using my Zutter binder to put all my Internet info in.... Here's the front with that same beautiful paper by Creative Memories that I used on my "Today's Treasures" book on a post before this one.
I used the Martha Stewart border punch Gothic Arches on the red and another MS border punch on the black but don't have the name of that one.....
The title plate was made with Spellbinders Fancy Tags 3


 Here's the inside and the first divider with tab... here you get a better shot of the MS punch I used but don't know the name of......?
 and here's a shot of just the tabs...
Will that's it for today...

Today's Treasures book

Hi Everyone!!
Today I'm showing you my "Today's Treasures" book I made.

The paper is by Creative Memories, and the punch I used down the left side is a Martha Stewart Corner punch called Gothic Arches.. I love to use corner punches to make borders... that black line down the right side is elastic to hold the book closed..... You'll see how I fastened it later....

this is the inside front cover with a pock and the first divider with a pocked too....

OK this is the first section... I have several sections in this section, each contains a large envelope, mini graft paper, large graft paper, cold pressed paper, journal paper and then it starts over.....

This is the second section for Thoughts.... it also has a pocked across the bottom.....

and this is the inside back cover with a pocked across the bottom too... I used the Gothic Arches border punch here...

and here's the back cover.. here you can see how I faceted the black elastic to the cover with Eyelets. 

And this is a close up of the front title plate.... guess I should have had this pic closer to the beginning...
I'm making a few more things out of this same paper... so be posting that soon...

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!
