Fruit tea bag box

Morning and first of all welcome to my new follower Jade.I found instructions I had cut out of a craft mag absolute ages ago and though I would have a try and decided to make it for my daughter for her fruit tea bags.She is into Buddas so found some papers on Google,cardstock from Papermill Direct,and distress inked all the edges,I added some small bamboo beads I have had for yonks!, a small piece of hessian,I stamped and gold embossed the floral stamp on the back and looking should have probably stamped and embossed a flourish round the lid edge too,the flower on the top was made by stamping the poinsettia stamp from Penny Black three times and layered it up with the same small bamboo beads in the centre was pretty pleased how it turned out and she loves it.First time used for both stamps.
