This is my fourth upload for a tea bag window card...hopefully the last. They kept disappearing from the gallery. I think I know what I did wrong. This was my shoebox card for a swap I attended in May. Tea bag folding is an art perfected in the Netherlands where I came from. Once you have folded a few, it is very simple. I folded 7 squares (depending on the size of the squares, a circle takes from 6 to 10) then adhered them together in a circle, then lightly drew the circle on the card front papers and cut that area out. I stamped the flower image being careful to center it. The blue paper was put through the swiss dot cuttlebug folder and I used a decorative scissor to scallop the edge. Added a ribbon and put the card together.
