Stampendous Tea Time

Did you see all the amazing new Tea stamps that Stampendous released last month?

When I saw them I knew I wanted to make a fun box to hold teabags.

I don't drink tea but I have a lot of friends who do and would love this box!

I used a lot of stamps to create it!

V276G Royal Teapot
V277G Queen Teapot
