Tea for Two

In an effort to blow your socks off...
I played with my current favorite stamp sets: PTI - Damask, and Elzybells -Tea for Two.
Do you see how well these sets have combined? Do you see how much fun it is to play with stamps and mix unlikely pairs together? It is like MAGIC! LOL

I simply love how this card turned out. It was so much fun. It did take a wee while to line everything up and to pick the colour scheme but ladies... ME LIKEY!
Did you notice the large Damask? The tea cup (ELZY) is an outline cup, and then I simply coloured with my COPIC around the edge of the Damask design. This does 2 things: it allows the Damask design to remain whole and intact, and also gives a wonderful design to the tea cup and makes it a wee bit extra special.


And here my friends, I just wanted to illustrate how fun it is to make a card with options. In the above I put in 2 very fine tea bags... or so you think...


In this final view I have added a shot of the gift card that is hiding behind the tea as an added surprise for the receiver! Would you not just love to receive a card like this? I would so much, so my friends get stamping and send a friend a welcome CUPPA!
Cheers!
