When I attended a paper crafting class that a friend of mine hosts every month, I saw the cutest thing: a tea bag card! I knew right away that I had to make my own version of these cute little cards. And I could make it easier with my Cricut Explore Air 2.

So I did and aren’t these the cutest?! These little cards would be fun favors to have at a get-together with friends, a baby shower, or a bridal shower.

Or just a fun, pretty way to have tea bags stored in your kitchen and share when a friend or family drops by.

Wouldn’t a pretty box full of these tea bag-filled cards make a lovely housewarming gift! I can think of so many ways to use them!

Are you ready to make some tea bag cards? Let’s get started!

I’m a visual learner and if you are too, then watching the video is a lot easier!

Step 2 – Fold tea bag cards along score lines

As shown in the photo above, place a strip of narrow double-sided tape on the right section and fold to the middle.

This creates the little pocket for the tea bag.

Step 3 – Add embellishments

This is the fun part and where you really get to be as creative as you want! I chose to add a label shape to the inside left of the card and stamped a sentiment.

I also used double-sided adhesive to attach a ribbon around the front and back of my cards. I made sure to leave enough of a tail to tie a bow.

I used a tea cup stamp from Close To My Heart to decorate the front of the card.

After the image was stamped, I colored it in and cut out the shape with small, sharp scissors.

Small 3D adhesive squares were used to attach the shape to the front of the card.

I hope you like today’s project. I think it is so cute! If you have any questions, please let me know in the comment section below.
