This is for the kids challenge to make something based off your mom's favorite things. I do have kids and will still try to get them to make a card, but in the meantime this is based on my mom's favorite things. Mom loves vintage dishes, tea, and books. I cut the cups out of book pages first, but they are arranged diagonally on the die so all the text was sideways and the only book I have that's big enough for this die is some kind of murder mystery and you know people read the words on things. It didn't seem very peaceful. ;) SO I cut them again in white, impressed it with the bookprint, and sponged on some of her favorite old dish colors.

Paula,
Nicely done in the vintage colors for you mom, I like how you have the stain from the drink inside the cup!! Not just pretty cups but very practical for use!! Very clever!

Lovely! I enjoy a good cup of tea. This card is terrific. I love the colours (a bit fiesta ware?) the tea bag in the cup and the hint of tea inside. TFS
