There's a new stamp set called A Nice Cuppa PLUS matching Framelits in the new Occasions catalog, which starts today. I used the Framelits to cut out my teacup, and the heart and sentiment stamps are from A Nice Cuppa. The patterned paper is new too, it's a 6x6 stack called Love Blossoms, and it just happens to be the perfect match for this week's Global Design Project color challenge:
I also used a slightly altered version of the Create with Connie & Mary sketch:
I made mine a standard A2 size card, and I left off the thin element (which to me says ribbon) because I thought it would be just one thing too many with all the patterns I already had going. Besides, Coco Chanel says you should take a look in the mirror before you leave the house, and take one thing off. And Coco Chanel knows from elegance, which is this week's Cupcake Inspirations Challenge:
So there you have it! I've got a busy day ahead, peeps; an old friend is coming for dinner so I have to do some cleaning and a lot of baking. I'm making homemade rolls for dinner tonight plus something for dessert. And dinner, obviously. Cheers, peeps!
