Floral Tea

Mornin' y'all.  We had a whole lot of rain yesterday and it was super windy, so I hope the cards I put out in the mailbox yesterday didn't end up getting wet before the USPS picked them up.  In fact, this was one of the cards that went out yesterday:


I had to dust off the Cup of Tea bundle when I saw this challenge from If You Give a Crafter a Cookie:


Yeah yeah I know those cookies are coffee cups, but I don't like coffee and I do love tea.  I liked the blue - purple - kraft color combo on here and also I've been watching the challenge for a while but I think this is my first time to participate in it.

Check out last week's Try a Sketch on Tuesday:


I currently have not one but two mugs of tea on the computer desk :)  I have a tin of tea samples that I'm trying to drink through, so I make a regular-size mug of one of those (since I don't know if I'll like it or not) and then my usual XL mug of a different type of tea.  I'm pretty well hydrated, ha.  Anyway, after a rather slow start this year, I did spend time up in my craft room yesterday and finished up a couple of scrapbook layouts and got started on a new card.  The plan today is to do more of the same.

Cheers, y'all.

Stamps:  Cup of Tea
Ink:  Boho Blue, Soft Sea Foam, Fresh Freesia
Paper:  Crumb Cake, Thick Basic White, Flight & Airy DSP
