Mornin' y'all! Ryan had his last day of this week's camp yesterday so I got to sleep in a little...or I would have if not for Miss Daphne : p SHE wants to get up at six even if she doesn't bother to eat her breakfast until noon. But she's cute.
Anyway, I was looking for something in my stamp library yesterday and I came across Favorite Thoughts and had to make a card with it immediately, so here it is:
Isn't that a great quote? I saw it and immediately thought of the Have a Cuppa DSP Stack since I remembered it had tea bag patterns, and then I had to stamp the large teacup from A Nice Cuppa to go with the latest challenge at Color Hues:
I used Polished Pink and Bermuda Bay for my colors, though the ribbon on the tag is actually Pretty in Pink. I need to ink up my Polished Pink ink pad. I also used the sketch from CAS Colours & Sketches:
Since a.) I don't like making square cards and b.) my tag tie is large and in charge, I did a standard A2 card instead of the square shown in the sketch. I wanted to put some little gems on there but I resisted the urge since this is a CAS challenge.
That's it for now, peeps. I'm going to try to get Daphne to eat her breakfast, wish me luck. We think she's holding out in case we decide to give her treats instead, but it's not going to work AND I won't take her for a walk until she eats either. So there. Cheers!
