This week I had lots of fun playing with Penny Black’s ‘Tea Time’ stamp set.  I just love PB images.

I started by stamping the image in Antique Linen Distress Ink on to some water colour paper. I decided the cup was a bit plain, so I searched through my stamps till I found some tiny flowers from Altnew’s ‘Moments In Time’

Altnew’s water colours were used for watercolouring with the addition of  some pencil for a few final details. Wink of Stella was added to the aqua parts of the cup and saucer and gold Jelly Roll pen was added to the rim of both as well as the flower centres and the dots on the sentiment.

After stamping the sentiment above the cup, the image was cut using the second largest MFT ‘Jumbo Fishtail Banner’ die.

The front panel was a neutral cardstock stamped with Penny Black’s ‘Trailing Beauty stamp using Hero Arts White ink.

Once this panel was attached to the top fold card front, the banner was attached on 3 sides. The top was left open so you could add a gift card or a tea/ coffee bag before sending it to a friend.

Don’t forget to head over to our blog to check out the wonderful inspiration from the rest of our Design Team.

I look forward to seeing what you create this week!

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  I love to read your comments.

Have a great day

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
