Steps on making the tea bag holder:
Start with a 6x6 of DSP (double sided looks best).
Step 1: Fold paper in half corner to corner
Step 2: Place the folded edge of the DSP along the left side of the score board. Then score at 1/2".
Then flip the DSP and repeat the score on the other side
Step 3: Place the DSP folded edge against the top of the scoreboard. Then score at 2 3/4th and then flip it over and score the other side at 2 3/4th.
The score lines should look like this.
Step 4: Crease side score lines down as shown in the photo.
Step 5: Crease the bottom score line with your bone folder as shown in picture below.
Step 6: Glue the points of tea bag holder together as shown in picture for security.
Step 7: Punch hole as shown in the picture.
Step 8: Place ribbon through hole and then decorate as desired. I also attached a tea bag tag string by using a scrap piece of card stock and embroidery floss. I placed a tiny hole in the tag with my pokey tool and tied a knot in the embroidery floss. The the tea cup I cut a tiny slit with my exacto knife an threaded the other end of the floss through the slit. You can then tape or glue the end to the back side of the tea cup. One of the pockets can be used for the sentiment of your choice and the other pocket for your favorite tea bag.
