Mary has given us Calypso Coral, Pool Party, and Soft Suede as our colours this week. I don't have these exact shades so I substituted. Dessert was to make a Valentine. I have used the CAS challenge sketch as my inspiration here though I don't think this rates as a CAS card.
My image is a tea cup stamp from Rosewood on Strathmore Watercolour paper. I coloured it with Tombows and cut it out with a Spellbinders die. I added a pearl to the sentiment panel. All the edges are inked and chalked.

Ann, such a pretty valentine featuring your beautifully colored English china teacup. Be such a pretty card for a friend you like to share a cup of tea with.
