simply stampin' challenge 65

Good morning folks! Back today with a Simply Stampin' Challenge today. We're back on a colour challenge today and its a beaut! I am actually in love! 




Tea for Two

Stamp Set: Tea Shoppe
Ink: Crumb Cake, Bashful Blue, Lucky Limeade
Cardstock: Wisper White, Lucky Limeade, Bashful Blue, Crumb Cake
Punch: Decorative Label
Accessories: Pearls
Baker's Twine: Lucky Limeade 
Other: Simply Scored Board

So I colour and stamped the tea cup using my stampin' write markers. Then cut it out and layered it on top of some Bashful Blue and Lucky Limeade cardstock - this provides a background and gives an added pop of colour to the rather subtle tea cup! I then added some score lines using the Simply Scored board - my goodness, EVERYONE needs one of these - they're fantastic!! I stamped the sentiment below the score lines and embellished with a few pearls! On the inside I coloured and stamped the Tea for Two image and punched it out with the decorative label punch - for another pop of colour I added a little frame of Limeade using the decorative label punch again.

I hope you enjoyed this CAS card. There's some stunning design team entries over at the Simply Stampin' blog so please go and check them out, oh and leave me a comment? :) I love reading them. 

Have a wonderful and sunny weekend!
