For today's MIX Challenge, Janelle has challenged us to "Open Up in a New Way" by trying a new tutorial. I chose this tent card. I needed to make a Mother's Day card for my mom and I wanted it to be tea themed. I decided that my tent card would be neat if I used this Stamplorations digi that looks down on the cup of tea. I stamped a gingham table cloth for inside the tent card and placed a doily too. I just bought this Avery Elle frame die and I thought it was perfect for the front of the card. After I colored the teacup, I added Wink of Stella to it and the MOM of the sentiment and Vintage Photo Stickles for the insides of the flowers. I even made a second identical card that my mom can mail to her best friend in Kansas. She was so happy that I made her a second Raggedy Ann card for her birthday, so I think she'll be excited about this second card for Mother's Day.

Oh, Jen, this is just the sweetest cup of tea card ever! I love the perspective and the 3'D of it all and that cream floating on the tea is a great detail. I also love the idea of making and gifting an extra one. What a great way for a proud mom to show off her talented daughter. Drink each other in. Cheers.
