Coffee, Tea, and Me!

May 28, 2018 0 Comments

Hello from Melody!

It’s Monday, and I don’t know about you, but I need a little caffeine to get this week started!

My first card features the Tea 4 Two Stamp Set.

After stamping the images with Dare 2B Artzy’s Totally Black Ink, I colored the teapot and cup with Copic markers. These are the Copic combinations I used: (RV04, RV09, R46), (B00, BG57, BG09), (YR14, YR07, R24), (E35, E37, BV04), and (C00, C1, C3). Next, I die cut the images with the coordinating dies.

I then used the Oval Framelits to partially die cut the bottom of the card front.

The Circle Framelits were used to cut the Pretty in Pink Paper. I also added a piece of this paper to the bottom of the inside of the card. I love how you can see this pretty paper even when the card front is closed!

If you are not a tea lover like me, maybe my second card will be more to your liking!

After stamping the cups from the Perfect Blend Stamp Set, I used Post-it Tape to mask off the center of the card. I then stamped the cup with flowers from the Blossom Stamp Set. Masking is one of my favorite techniques!

The cups were then colored with the following Copic combinations: (BG13, BG05, BG09), (Y00, Y04, Y08), (YG13, G43, G02), and (C00, C1, C4). The cups were then die cut with the Cup Die.

After cutting the Bizzy Blooms Paper with the stitched rectangle from the Leaf Background Die, I stamped the fun sentiment from the Tall Dark & Rich Stamp Set. That sentiment always makes me smile! The bee was die cut from the Artzy Blooms Paper.
