Tea Anyone? – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #575

Hey There,

Today’s project is a perfect example of why I have such a large stamp collection.  I ended up pulling out 5 stamp sets.  Isn’t wonderful how well they all work together?  Check out my tutorial below to see just how I pulled them all together.

Stamped the teacup on Basic Gray card stock with Craft Basic Black ink.  Heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.  Cut the image out using papersnips.

Added a gold rim on the top of the cut using the Stampin’ Dazzle Gold Marker.

Stamped the flourish on Marina Mist card stock using Encore Gold ink.  Heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.

Stamped the image from the Mixed Bunch set using Marina Mist ink.

Stamped the texted stamp from the French Foliage set using Soft Suede ink around the flower design.

Sponged Marina Mist ink around  all over the card stock.  Leave the flower design empty so it will be lighter.

Sponged Not Quite Navy ink at the top of the card stock and over the gold embossed images.

Sponged Midnight Muse ink on the top left corner of the card stock.

Cut a 1 1/2″ by 4.5″ piece of Sahara Sand card stock and stamped the flourish with Basic Gray ink at the bottom of the card stock.  Sponged Basic Gray ink over the card stock to grunge it up a bit.

 

Added a 5.25″ Whisper White card base, 5.25″ Basic Black panel, 4 7/8″ Marina Mist panel, 4.75″ Basic Black panel, the Sahara Sand piece and the tea cup.  Stamped the sentiment “heartfelt” using Basic Black ink.

Here is the finished card measuring 5.25″ square.

Have a terrific day!
