Tea-Bag Birthday .....


Seems like tea-bag painting is on trend so I set about doing a little water-colouring on a used tea which had been dried, emptied and ironed.  I used no Gesso on this one and found that the watercolours spread a bit .... but it was a first attempt and I quite enjoyed making it.  Now saving all my teabags to do more !

The tea-bag was stamped with an Art Deco stamp in Archival black ink and coloured with water-colour brush pens.

The card frame was die-cut and coloured with Distress Oxides before mounting on foam pads.  The sentiment was stamped in Archival black ink and mounted on more Distress Oxide coloured card.
