Felicity Flourish is a sophisticated tea lover who would like nothing more than a tattoo. She was so thin, though that no one with a needle would come near her...until she met Tattoo Lou. Lou could tattoo long elegant flourishes on Felicity, so beginning a beautiful union of tea and tattoo. Confused? I'll pin point the Teaparty location so that you can play along: MMTPT163 ~ YOU WANNA TATTOO? WE CAN'T DO YOU! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
This card is a team effort of lots of inspiration: Mothermark, of course for the story, Joan Ervin for the wonderful technique and tutorial found here: http://stampingwithapassion.blogspot...l-opening.html
and Bonnie aka Bon2stamp for her lovely CAS card last week: Heavy Metallic by bon2stamp at Splitcoaststampers
Cut the Sizzix originals teapot x2 in MFP Navy and stamped the flourish from Bliss on one in Whisper White. Heat embossed with white detail EP. Cut a teapot from copper CS and paper pieced the details. Cut a window in a Flourishes white card with the largest oval Nestie. Embossed with TH Damask EF. PC generated the sentiment and mounted inside. Mounted the decorated teapot on the outside of the card, ran the other teapot through the EF and mounted it inside. Our destination this week is Michelle aka fairygirlmichelle. Please come over and play if you can... PT - 3
Thank you all so much for looking. Have a peaceful day.
