    need to design tea bag wraps- please help

    Thank you IamSam! You are amazing! I was thinking of a similar design :-) Should I make a path with a pen and then group it somehow with logo, background and backside text? Should I transform it all (path + logo + text+ background ) into a smart object so I can re-size it or move it?
