 Ever feel like dressing up your drab tea boxes? I did, and it is cute enough to either leave out on the counter or to give to someone who is under the weather.

This is the newest a la mode "You're my cup of tea" that is going to be released on Tuesday. I love her oversized cup that I could add a little design to. I colored her up with my copic markers (listed below in supply list).

I cut her out using a new STAX coming on Tuesday called "Postage Stamp". The smallest one is the tag and the 2nd largest is cutting out my image.

I made my own little box top with my scor-pal and fancied up the edges with the new Bracket Edge Duo Die-namics.

Airbrushed the edges with YR31 and Y26. A finishing touch using one of the tea bag tags for on the image.
