It's been a long time since I've been to a tea party so I hope I'm not under dressed. I think I've found the perfect little cottage! It looks so peaceful and relaxing. Do you think they'll like it?
All images are Our Daily Bread designs. This started out as an extra stamped image but then I decided to color it and one thing led to another. It's sort of a companion to This card and I used the narrow little frame I cut out of it on my card here.
The image was colored w/ a combination of water colors and markers. I used a Spellbinders long rectangle and resized it to make a really large square. For the die cut Vintage Border peeking out around from around the frame, I double stamped it; once w/ the Kpad and again w/ the black ink. I scored a border on the front of the 5×5 ivory card.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff.

This looks so warm and inviting. I think Will and Kate would enjoy taking their tea in the afternoon there. It's perfect colors and warm breezes are ripe for conversation. I love how you framed your image. This is one gorgeous dynamite card.
