You're just my cup of Tea!!

Wow, Well the launch of  'The Vintage Tea Party' One Day Special certainly went down a storm. I am so pleased for those of you who have this collection ordered and on it's way, I know you will love it. Today I am sharing a sample I made for the show, using one of the embossing folders and some other elements from the collection.

For this card you will need:

Teariffic Sentiment Dies

Toppling Tea Cup Dies

Botanical Border Embossing Folder

Basic Oval Die

Deep Blue Core'dinations

Matt black card

Sheena Stamping card

Weathered Wood Distress ink

Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink

Navy ribbon

Paper flowers

Adhesives

Step 1: Take a 5 x 7 piece of the Core'Dinations, run it through your embossing folder. Colour the raised design with the deeper blue ink. Layer this onto black card leaving a generous border.

Step 2: Cut the cup and saucer die along with the oval from Sheena stamping card. Select the parts of the embossing folder and the position on the elements to look best. Then colour with the same ink. Blend around the edges with Weathered Wood to add more dimension.

Step 3: From the Core'Dinations card cut out the sentiment, It only needs one. However I also cut 2 further sentiments from black card and layered them up for more depth. Secure this in place to you Oval using Tacky glue.

Step 4: Position your cup and saucer on the card using 3D glue gel for a little dimension.Use the waste from the kettle die to add steam to the tea cup for a little extra touch.

Step 5: Using foam tape, secure the card to your base card, here I have used Centura Pearl as it gives a wonderful card base. Finally add a Navy Bow and a paper rose to match.
