Having Tea with Pretty Hat Anya

I wanted to do a non-traditional gift for a friend, co-worker or teacher for Valentine's Day.  A little something to say "I Love You" or "I appreciate You" without all the mushy stuff.  Some people might feel weird giving their co-workers something with hearts and the word "love" on it.  Anyhow, this is a tea packet dispenser that one can keep on her desk.  It's so cute and since it doesn't have the traditional Valentines Day theme, they could use it all year long and can be given for many other occasions.  I used the Pretty Hat Anya stamp and once again I made use of my Basic Grey paper.  This dispenser stands about 6" tall.
Here is an upclose view of her pearl necklace.  I used white pearlstuds from Kandi Corp.

Not sure if you remember but I made this box in an earlier post.  I just changed it up a bit to turn it into a dispenser.  You can see that post here.
