Tea Box


This weeks challenge over at Try it on Tuesdays is very straight forward. One instruction only,  'Alter a Box'.
Once again our Sponsers are the lovely folk over at the Craft Barn.

So this box started life  filled with tea bags. It will be going  as a gift to a friend , filled with assorted teas.
It was a real simple job to alter this. The box was covered with  K&Co papers, with the addition of a few left over toppers from a Graphics45 sheet. The ribbon and label came from my stash..

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look at my box, I hope you will join in the fun with us over at TioT's.
