Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
This is my second card for today's challenge. Why? Because Speedy the Cat INSISTED! I was lounging on the couch with a GREAT book and a cup of hot tea with cream and sugar when Speedy the Cat JUMPED on my stomach from the top of the bookcase! OMGosh! Tea went everywhere, the TV was COVERED, and it's on the OTHER side of the living room! I got the hint and went back to my stampin' table and made this card!LOL!
I stamped the cup, pot and tea bag in water color paper and colored with SU! markers. I cut out each image. The tea bag was stamped on Whisper White and punched out with 3/4" circle punch. I colored the tag and bag and layered the other on top.
The sentiment was stamped on Whisper White and punched with the wide oval. Next, I shaded the sentiment with Old Olive. I stamped the sentiment again on desiger paper and cut out the words. Then, I layered them on the existing sentiment.

Really cute! I love tea and drink it the English way, also. But, I love teapots (I collect them,thanks to my daughter)and teapot stamps. Your card fits me to a tea(?). LOL!
