Care for a Spot of Tea?

Howdy doody . . . and welcome to my bloggity blog!! Hope you're having the most fabulous weekend! The weather here in Richmond, VA, U.S.A. has been spectacular!! Clear and sunny . . . and even a bit warm (in the high-70's!). I do believe that Spring has SPRUNG! Whoohoo!! Today I have card that was commissioned by my sweet sister, Dee. She needed something for a friend who is graduating college . . . so, clearly, "Congratulations" needed to be somewhere on the card! AND, her friend loves tea . . . so this is the image my sister selected . . .

Allow me to introduce you to "Tea Please", a Sarah Kay image from Stampavie. I just think she's as precious as can be!! Here's sort of a side view . . .

I used Lavender Lace cardstock from Stampin' Up layered on top of DCWV pastel cardstock (no idea what color it is . . . kinda matches, tho!). The sentiments are from Magnolia; seam binding is from The Ribbon Girl; metal filagree corners & flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts; pearl swirls from ZVA Creative; and the lace and that cute little "teapot" charm are from my stash!

Here's the rest of my card "recipe" . . .

NOT a Card!

Well, well, well . . . how fortunate that, in the chaos that I lovingly call my studio, I have a little bag filled with the cutest little journals and matching pens! And . . . guess what else? My new best friend, Mr. Postman, just delivered a package from 7 Kids College Fund with some of the new Stampavie "Sarah Kay" stamps! Whoo hoo!!  So here's what I came up with . . .

This little cutie patootie is called "Bathtime" . . . isn't she just the sweetest little thing ever?! I have always loved Sarah Kay and, in fact, I have an entire curio cabinet filled with little wooden statuettes by Sarah Kay like this one . . .

Their faces are just cherubic, aren't they? Here's a close-up of this sweet Sarah Kay by Stampavie image . . .

Now . . . that gorgeous die is called "Polynesian Sails Oval" and comes from Cheery Lynn Designs! The cardstock is Pretty in Pink (from Stampin' Up). The roses come from Wild Orchid Crafts. Here's the rest of my project "recipe" . . .
