Quick Make - Teabags

Teabags

These are just quick makes.  Sometimes I just want to experiment with different colour schemes, so I used these "tea or coffee?" morning invites to do just that.  

I used a glass desert bowl to draw the circle around the stamps, coloured everything in, backed with contrasting paper and decorated with gel pens.  To give a tiny bit of movement to the cards, the teabag is hung by a turquoise thread from the sentiment.
