Hi Playmates
Come and have a cup of tea with me! I have a little gift bag full of good wishes and some tea to share, plus I'll break out the biscuits if you've been VERY good!
EDITED TO ADD A VIDEO LINK HERE on how to score and fold this little bag.
In the video, she uses 6" x 6" paper, but I made a larger version using an 8" x 8" piece of paper and scored as follows:
- when the the triangle was abutted to the LEFT EDGE of the scoreboard, I scored at ⅞"
- when the the triangle was abutted to the TOP of the scoreboard, I scored at 3¾ and 7⅝"
- the blue piece for the little tag measures 3¼" x 2¾", the white piece measures 3" x 2½"

I'm hosting a new challenge over at the SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND, where Di and I are celebrating the Snippets Playground's 11th Blogoversary! Yes, Di has been running the Playground for 11 years and I take my hat off to her as I've only been co-hosting for less than a year! It's a lot of fun being Di's partner in crime . . . or is she mine? It's hard to tell! LOL! Either way, as it's a special occasion, we are, once again, offering another FAB prize. Run along and find out the details HERE but put those scissors down first. NEVER run with scissors in your hand (or mouth!).
Lovely gift Sarn, you have a knack of using recycled materials in a way I wouldn’t even think of, great Snippets make xxx
ReplyDeleteAdorable gift bag/pocket, love the sprigs detail and great recycling as always!! Sweet paper and tag as well. It's a great way to gift someone with a little relaxing thought. I don't like camomile but these teabags with vanilla, apple and also passion flower (I have it in my garden!) seem so yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou and Di are a perfect gang, especially with the partner in crime called Dudley! :D
Scissors put down :D Have a lovely Sunday
Totally fab use of those snippets and such a cool make too matey - happy 11th blogversary to the snippeteers too

A super gift bag and really good to see just how you've used your snippets to achieve the result. 11 years eh? - that's dedication running a blog challenge for that length of time. Off to check out the latest news
ReplyDeleteA lovely tea gift bag Sarn and great use of snippets too.

That's a very cute way to gift some good tea and I love the snippets you used, especially from a store-bought card! Some papers are just too pretty to throw away. Great snippet make, and I don't even walk with scissors so I'm good :)
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call organised Sarn, heaven only nows if I'll remember to photo the snippets before I start, we'll see!
ReplyDeleteYour little gist tea bad card is such a super idea.

Oh what a darling little gift bag Sarn ... that is just so pretty and makes a simple gift so special! Congrats to Snippets Playground on your 11th Blogoversary and humungous thanks for another jaw dropping prize ... anyone who can't be bothered to do their homework at the moment must be too dim for class, and deserve all the detention they get!! xx
ReplyDeleteGosh Sarn - this truly is so lovely! What a delightful little gift (does the tea work - I may need some for Len's insomnia!). What a giggle - I clicked on the video right away and thought 'THAT'S not Sarn's voice' - I need help perhaps!
ReplyDeleteHuge thanks for making this past year - and very often previously behind the scenes - so much easier and also more fun!
Much love and a woof from Dudley to his much loved Auntie!

ReplyDeleteA fantastic little gift idea Sarn, I love it.

What a lovely little gift this is Sarn! Just right to let an insomniac know you're thinking of them! I love how you used the snippet with the tape line on it - it gives those sprigs a pleasing bit of detail. What a great milestone for the Playground! Love your mischievous influence on it :) Sending love, Vicky xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a little tea bag gift, the colours are really pretty. Thanks for the link to the video. xx
