Time For Tea...

 Good morning,

Time for tea.... I have designed a card that includes a teabag so as you can invite someone, a friend or relative for a cup of tea and a chat.

Close up:-

Tall slim Kraft coloured card...19.5cm x 10.5cm

Cut a piece of patterned paper slightly smaller than the main card so as to leave a small border. I used Stamperia Herbarium papers that had a Tea theme. Using the same papers make a small pocket 9cm x 8cm finished to fit on the bottom front of the card. Leave the top open to fit your teabag. Add a strip of Kraft card 10.5cm x 1.5cm to cover the bottom of the pocket, then add a patterned border strip for decoration.  Die-cut the same Zig Zag border to the top of the card using matching papers. Tie a piece of button string around the length of the card twice and then into a bow. Add greetings and finally a teabag.

Craft Items Used:-
Kraft Card
Scrapbook Papers- Stamperia Herbarium Collection.
Zig Zag Border Die-Set- Die-namics
Distress Oxide Ink Pad- Iced Spruce- Ranger
Clear Embossing Powder- Sweet Dixie (Greetng)
Pale Turquoise Button Thread
Greeting Stamps
Teabag

Happy Crafting

Cut a piece of white card 14.5cm x 10.5cm and emboss with a floral embossing folder, add to the bottom of the card. Die-cut a white square 9cm and stamp out the wedding cake using Versamark ink pad and silver embossing powder. Die-cut a silver square 10cm and attach to the white square. Add these to the centre of the main card. Die-cut two silver corners and a silver bunting and add to the card as in the picture. Add two silver bows to the ends of the bunting.

Poppies....Get Well Card..

 Good Evening

I have made a small card with a Get Well wish. I have used a Poppy stamp which is the flower for August.



Close up:-


I have used a 5"x5" (12.5cm x 12.5cm) Scalloped white card.

Cut a piece of patterned card 12cm x 12cm for the background of the card. Edge all four corners with a 'Corner Rounder'. Add this to the main card. Stamp out the Poppy stamp in black ink and clear emboss. Die-cut the image with a round die 9cm across. Colour the image with red and green Promarkers. Add to the main card. Die-cut a scalloped Circle 9.5cm in the same patterned card and then again with a plain round circle 9cm to form a frame. Punch out a grass effect in the pattern card and add to the bottom of the poppies. Add the frame onto the poppy image with foam making sure you cannot see the grass edges. (As in the picture.) Add a greeting to the card.
