February 20, 2023, Tea Set - Clear Stamp Set CLR057A

 Hey Y'all!!! Teresa here. Coffee? Tea? I used to be a coffee girl but circumstances lately have made me switch to tea. Prickley Pear has two fun stamp sets, one all about coffee and the other all about tea. Also a matching die set. Be sure to check them out. Maybe they need a forever home with you! All the details for making this card yourself are below (including links).

I started by printing the fun tea & coffee mugs on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White paper and coloring it with OLO markers.

COPIC MARKERS:

• Tea Cups (V2.7, V2.6, V2.4, V2.3, V1.1, BG0.8, BG0.7, BG0.4, BG2.7, BG2.4, BG2.3, BG2,1, YG8.5, YG2.5, YG2.3, YG2.1, Y2.3, OR2.6, OR2.5, OR2.3, OR2.2, RV0.6, RV0.4, RV0.2, RV0.1, White Gel Pen)

The card base is a beautiful turquoise blue called Bermuda Bay. It's cut to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" on the long side. Just a tip I learned. Make sure you use your bone folder and burnish the fold well so it doesn't tear the fold.

I cut a piece of patterned turquoise paper from The Bees Knees 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and glued it flat to the card base. I made several other layers with Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and patterned paper from The Bees Knees. The measurements are:

Layer 1 (bottom center) - 2 1/2" x 4", 2 3/8" x 3 7/8"

Layer 2 (left center) - 2 1/2" x 5", 2 3/8" x 4 7/8"

Layer 3 (right center) - 3/4" x 4 3/8", 7/8" x 4 1/2"

Layer 1 is glued flat to the card base and background. Laser 2 is popped up with foam tape. Layer 3 is glued flat to the card base. The teacups are popped up with foam tape and stacked on top of one another leaning a little bit like they would do naturally.

The sentiment is one of several sweet sentiments from this new set. I chose 'But First Tea'. I've just started drinking tea lately, having given up coffee. Delicious!.

  

And of course I added some glittery turquoise dots. You know I'm just a glittery girl.
