To a Tea

Mornin' y'all!  I've got my first cuppa steeping right now and of course I'm making tea to go with my tea card today : )


I love the pink and teal color combination from last week's Inspired By... challenge so I had to give it another go even if the challenge is closed:


I ended up using Summer Splash with mostly Pink Pirouette and just a little Pretty in Pink, doing a Pretty in Pink card base was just too much pink for me.  Next up is the CAS Colours & Sketches sketch:


I happened to see the teacup trio stamp in Tea Shoppe and thought it would be great for the circles on the sketch.  I added the Pretty in Pink strip to ground the teacups so they wouldn't be free floating in space, I just felt like they needed that grounding.

That's it for now, peeps.  I'm going to enjoy the rest of my cuppa while I check out some blogs, and then I fully intend to make another cup : )  My blood type is tea positive.  Cheers!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Tea Shoppe
Ink:  Summer Splash, Memento Tuxedo Black

I recognised the sketch before I'd even read your post today Christy - those teacups are just perfect! Tea is always my first drink of choice too - I never start the day without at least 2 cups! Thanks for playing at CAS C&S this week!

Lovely color combo and the tea cups are perfect for the sketch. The patterns on the cups give just the right amount of interest for a CAS card. Thanks for sharing at the CAS Colours & Sketches!

Your card is calling my name! I start every morning with a cup of tea. That color combination is so festive. Thanks for sharing your card with us at CAS Colours and Sketches.
