~Let’s Do Tea!~
May 14th, 2008 by Holly McMillen
Good Wednesday to ya’ll! Today’s challenge (sketch) looked a bit intimidating at first. To me, it felt out of balance, so I made mine into a 5 x 5 square card. I chose this adorable set from Inque Boutique. The tea cup is paper pieced with Jersey Shore Dp and pumpkin pie, then the image is stippled with a little pumpkin pie ink. I cuttlebugged 1/2 of the bliss blue layer with swiss dots (positive), then the other side with swiss dots (negative).
I made this for a new friend that I had coffee/tea with only once and would love to do it again! You know who you are….. Lisa! LOL
Today’s forecast is for 75 degrees and sunny this morning, so Dh (who is off today) and I are going for a nice walk! We’ve decided to start a new trend! Wish me luck! LOL
Here’s the deets on my card:
Stamps: Tea cup by Inque Boutique, sentiment is handwritten
Colors: Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie, Bliss Blue, Jersey Shore Dps
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, blue fine tip marker; pumpkin pie
Accessories: brads, ribbon, dimensionals, cuttlebug, circle punches, designer label punch
TFL!~ and have a blessed day!
