Tea Bag Folding


OilPastel - Tea Bag Folding
Submitted by Anita-Reinehr

Background: Take several complimentary colors of oil pastels and scribble on cardstock. Soften and blend colors by rubbing with your fingertips. Ink lace background stamp by Stampin' Up! with black pigment ink. Pour clear embossing powder over entire card, shake off excess and heat powder. Note that oil pastels stays 'wet' so the embossing powder will stick to entire card. I found that dye base ink does not stamp well on top of the oil pastel background. Must use pigment ink. Trim lace background and adhere to folded glossy black card.

Layers: Cut purple square panel, scribble and blend oil pastels as the background. Round corners with punch. Round corners of glossy black square panel.

Teabag medallion: Stamp rose (SU!) on upper left corner of eight 2" 'corona harmony' origami paper. Fold and assemble medallion. Assemble card as pictured.

Open Star Card - Tea Bag Folding
Submitted by Sharon Peralta, So. California
This card works well to show a stamped image (through the opening) appearing to "burst" through the front of the card. This one was made with glossy card stock, with shiny wrapping paper cut into 8 two inch squares. Fold the wrapping paper squares as shown in diagram below, then attach them together to form the "open star" as shown, and glue to the front of the pre-folded glossy card stock card.

Then cut the center of the "star" out to make the opening in the front of the card. I used butterfly stamps from Hampton Art Stamps, but any
butterflies, birds, bees, etc., would work. I raised one butterfly on the inside of the card with a pop

dot to make it appear to fly through the opening. I stamped some on the outside and glued a few more on the outside to give some a 3D effect. Finally, I outlined the card front with a gel pen.
