Time for tea!.....



Anyone for a nice cuppa? I bought the DCWV Nana's Kitchen stack last week and it has this lovely paper with teapots, cake, cups etc on it and I thought that it would be ideal for a card to invite someone to meet up for a cuppa. I used the same layout as before in pretty pastels and used this pretty little' girl at a tea party' cut. I cut her from pink glitter card and adhered her to a scalloped oval mat. I added ribbon and a layered flower and the 'tea time' sentiment cut from yellow glittercard. I cut 2 small teapots as extra embellishments, one for the front of the card and one for inside. The letters that make up the inside sentiment were cut at 1/2" on the Big Bug and I used paper to cut them from. I find that smaller letters are better cut from paper as cardstock is too thick to cut swirls and holes in a's & e's.
Carts used:
Girl- A Child's Year
Both sentiments- Lyrical Letters (Jumbo font)
Hope you are having a good weekend- we've got visitors today and it's also hubby's birthday so we've been out to lunch to the pub and then had a walk on the beach.
Thanks for dropping by!
