The funny thing is I almost used the exact same two dsp pieces you used b/c I wanted to use the Tea for Two dsp. I had to rethink and find another part of the dsp to use. I then added very vanilla card stock at the bottom which was border punched, dry embossed and sponged.
I added a large bow as you did with a vintage flower in the center and a tiny silver teapot charm. I added 3 medallion punches above the ribbon with pearls and lightly sponged the dsp. On the left-hand corner, I added a little banner that is stamped "tea"rific", with little pearls and sponging which I popped up with dimensionals.
My mother is British, so something tells me I'll be holding onto this card and give it to her on a special occasion.
Thanks for looking and, Jennifer, your gallery is awesome.

Whoa! How did I miss this when you posted it? It's absolutely fabulous. I loved that ribbon when SU carried it and horde it now. I love how you made it shine on this card.
Congrats on your PT job. Since your time will be a little shorter for stamping, maybe you can stamp with me at 3 am now. LOL...
