Challenge #19 For All that You Do, Thank You!
Create a "thank you" gift for this challenge. It can be a Thanksgiving hostess gift or a simple thank you card. It can be a "thanks for helping me out of a jam" present, or a "thanks for being you" scrapbook layout. As long as your project says, "THANKS," enter the challenge! We want to see you de-hoard some of your stash and say thanks to someone! (Your project does not have to be Thanksgiving-themed!)

This project had to say "Thanks" in some way. I decided a washi tape tin turned into a small tea box would make a nice little thank you gift.
This is not my usual style. I am not a shabby girl at heart, but I thought that a tea tin would look great in this style. The fairy in the tea cup has been inspired by one of my favorite paper artists, Renea Bouquets. I would say that this tin is my homage to her. Click here to see the project of hers that I just love.
I have waited a year to put a fairy in a tea cup! I hope I did Renea proud.
Thanks for stopping by and having a peek!
