Tea-riffic!



Hope your having a tea-riffic day! :) I am a big fan of tea as well as tea/ coffee stamp sets. The last time I bought a hot drink, I saved the sleeve and used a piece of it here to mount my images to. The cup on this card comes from a set by Fiskars, and the sentiment and background images are by Verve. My colors are Chocolate Chip, Regal Rose, Old Olive, and Pumpkin Pie. My baker's twine is from the Twinery.

Thanks for stopping by!

Subtle Flower


Happy Easter weekend all! This card isn't specifically for Easter, but its nice and springy. I used some retired colors from SU's soft subtles color family along with a current one - Blush blossom, pretty plum, mellow moss, and perfect plum. I really like the look of these "flowers,"all it takes is rounding the opposite corners of squares. For some added texture, I put them in my polka dot embossing folder and ran them through the Big Shot. Then I added a large brad to the center to finish it off. My "Happy" sentiment is by Verve from Merry Wishes.
