There's a pretty stamp set in the Stampin Up Occasions catalog called Needlepoint Nook. It has sweet designer paper and images in it that all pertain to embroidery. This week I had some time to take it out and just loved making some cards with it.
The paper has pretty embroidery colors and imagery. There's a framelit that cuts little dots onto your paper to look like you stitched it. I used it on this card for the background. I love the flowers and sayings, too.
There's a little stitched butterfly that just completes the card. I had a lot of little wooden pieces left over from the Sale-a-bration wood cut outs, so I put some on each of my cards.
For the next look, I decided to put the tea cup on the card instead of the flowers. I do enjoy a cup of tea in the afternoons. The tea cup makes the card look a bit more feminine.
Here's a Get Well card that I love, too. I colored in the tea cups with the Stamping Blends. They are alcohol based and I love using them because they don't make the paper all wet. And they blend well.
The little saying, "Love is a warm cup of Tea" fits so nicely right on the tea cup.
I got the idea for the tea cup from one of my stamping friends on facebook.
