I got all confused this week and thought I was going to a mask-erade party not a teaparty.
I stamped one group of tulips (Flourishes) then masked then stamped another group of tulips then masked, then stamped the teapot (Crafty Secrets) then masked, then stamped one lace tablecloth edge then masked, then stamped the other side then masked, then finally stamped the wallpaper and the maskerading was finished.
If the technique challenge this week had been to mask I would have taken home some kind of prize.
Everything was coloured with copics. The little rose is prima. The tea tag is a Crafty Secrets stamp. The 2 little pearl hearts are beads that I attached wire to. The ribbon is SU.
This also works for the Fan Club theme this month.

Elizabeth, you do win the prize! This is as lifelike as a photograph! The patina on your copper teakettle is AMAZING, as is the antique linen it's sitting on! GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS!

This is so sweet! I love the tulips IN the teapot, and I'm envious of your ability to leave white space in your coloring... I really struggle with that!

This is beautiful!! All your masking has paid off in a beautiful way!! With the bg you have created, the teapot full of tulips really stands out!! I love the lace tablecloth and the big bow underneath!
