Brewing Up A Cup Of Birthday Wishes

Hi Crafty Friends,

t's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog.  As challenge hostess for the month, I continue to issue the challenges.

Apparently the 21st April was Tea Day, create a card that features tea or coffee.

For my card today I decided to go with a tea theme and pulled out some older stamps from La La Land Crafts ... Tea Time Marci and Tea Time Set stamp sets. It's probably no big surprise that I created a Slimline card to create a room scene. I used papers from Lawn Fawn for the wall portion of my card, die cutting the paper using one of the rectangle dies from Trinity Stamps Stitched Card Panels & Windows die set. For the floor I used Penny Black's Wood Floors die set.

I used an older tea themed sentiment from The Cottage Stamper Inc. to add the sentiment to the top portion of my card.

For the inside of the card I created a pop up card using Karen Burniston's Katherine Label Pop-up die set. I used the labels from the Paper Frames Pop-up die set to add the sentiments to the card. I added a sentiment from Close To My Heart's Tea-rrific stamp set to the top pop-up. For the second sentiment I used the "You are" from the first sentiment and then added the "BEAU-TEA-Ful!" from Art Impressions Valentine Bears stamp set.

To finish off the card I added the cup and tea bag which is also included in the La La Land Crafts Tea Time stamp set.
