A Chai Christmas Card


Today I had an idea.  In my stock pile I dug out some card stock.


I decided to go to The Graphics Fairy and have a look at her labels.  Thanks again Graphics Fairy.  You are the best!  I found one that, of course, has nothing to do with tea, but looked pretty.  I downloaded it and played with it in my label program.  I printed four per page.  I tore the labels with a ruler into equal sizes.  I didn't want the edges to look cut.(Or maybe I just couldn't find my scissors...hmmmm, now I have you wondering.)


  I sewed each one  onto a piece of card stock.


I grabbed another piece of card stock, and sewed it onto the back, so that  I formed an envelope with a label on the front. 


Two holes were punched in the top.


  This was so I could put some chai into plastic bags, put a bag into each card, and tie them with some ribbon.   To see my dried chai mix recipe, click H E R E !

Now I don't have to sit and hand write a whole lot of cards......maybe that would have been a lot easier.... ....duh!


Cheers!
