Perk Up

I haven't had time to do much stamping over the last few weeks so my recent cards have all been cases..this one was inspitred by Nancy Leedy..I love paper piecing the Morning Cup Set and I also love mixing and matching patterned papers!

Tea Bag Holder

This is a remake of a teabag holder I made a while back minus the bellyband. To make this cut a strip of cardstock 21 cm x 8.5 cm and score at 4.5cm, 13.5cm and 14 cm. 

With your cardstock in the vertical position use the scallop edge punch to edge the longer flap across the 8.5 cm edge and use the wide oval to take a bite out of the bottom flap. Use sticky strip to glue the side edges of the 4.5 cm flap to create a pocket for your teabag. I use the kettle from the Morning Cup set to embellish the front. Quick and easy..you could whip these up for the kids Mother's Day stalls at school...speaking of Mother's day stalls, I remember a few pressies I have received from my kids class stalls over the years. My eldest daughter gave me a lovley coffee cup one year wrapped in torn cellophane where she had dipped in and eaten the chocolates...my middle daughter gave me a packet of padlocks??? and my youngest gave me a vinyl shower curtain..she questioned me a few months later why I wasn't using it and I had to point out we had glass shower screens lol!

Morning Cup Case

The other day while blurfing, I came across this cute card idea by Lisa Young. I have changed the colours but the rest is pure case. I have used  Regal Rose designer paper on Pretty in pink card stock and the teapot and cups were stamped onto watercolour paper and cut out....a few pattycakes and this would make a cute invite for a High Tea!

Morning Cup

Isn't this set devine!..I Wanted it the minute I laid eyes on it. I used Staz on to stamp the images on water colour paper and I coloured them using my aqua brush and ink pads..my colour scheme for this one is Marina Mist, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla
