Rise and Shine Tea

I started with a bright turquoise card.

I cut the sun with the Stampin Up Sunburst Thinlit from yellow Bazzil Textured card stock.  Trimmed to the edge of the card.

I created the sentiment with the words from the Verve Stamps Rise and Shine Digital Set free download during this blog hop.  I colored it with Night of Navy and punched it with the SU 1 3/8 inch circle punch.  I cut a turquoise circle with the 1.75 inch punch from SU. I cut the navy scallop circle with a Nestabilities Scallop Circle thin die.These were adhered as shown and adhered to the card front with 3D foam tape.

I added a tea cup from the Stampin Up Tea Shoppe Stamp set in Night of Navy.  It was printed then I fussy cut around the edge and used an exacto for the handle. This was also adhered with 3D foam tape.

Tea for Two

I started with the sentiment which I had printed and embossed when I made my other tea card.

I chose to make it a Stampin Up card so I decided on Night of Navy, Old Olive as a color scheme. The sentiment is printed in Old Olive and is from the Tea Shoppe Stamp Set. It was clear embossed on the vellum.
I created a piece of background paper with the Tim Holtz Distress Stain - Crushed Olive mostly and a bit of Mustard Seed.
I cut a piece of Kiwi Kiss card stock into a large banner and adhered that to the front of a Night of Navy card. Then I trimmed the back ground paper and the vellum to leave small even borders on each of those.
I printed a cup from the Tea Shoppe Stamp set on Whisper White and fussy cut around the image with scissors and an exacto knife.  I adhered it above the sentiment with 3D foam tape.  I then placed double sided tape behind the cup and adhered the vellum to the background paper.  Now, I adhered the background layer to the Kiwi Kiss banner.
I measured the center and a point on each side which I punched out the side ones with a 1/8 inch hole punch. I cut a length of Night of Navy Tafetta Ribbon and tied it in a knot above the cup.
