The teacup was inspired by the Limited Supply Challenge. Food related images with food named inks. The teacup is embossed all over with clear EP and shines. The medallion was embossed with clear EP on Banana card stock. Then Celery Craft ink was sponged over the rest of the card.
The cup is the only pretty teacup image I own--a House Mouse image, so I cut off the mice and made it look like a friend is just out of the line of sight.
Inside: Here's to good women--may we know them, may we raise them, may we BE them. (Copied from a plaque I bought at Steinmart.)

It looks like a doily to me (if that how you spell it). I dont think its a little off the wall in any way; I think it's positively wonderful. your tea cup is so real looking, and I think it was genius of you to cut off the little guy. what looks like what's left, if I might say, is still some tea in the cup. Great card. Nothing off the wall about this one at all!

What a unique and lovely card! That beautiful Medallion...every time I see it used I like it more. I love the creative layout; the saying inside is special indeed.
