With the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog going live pretty soon, I have been going through stamp sets and designer paper, pulling out retiring products because I only keep current products out where I stamp (the kitchen table!). I pulled out the Cup of Tea Stamp Set and the Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to put them elsewhere. But later I had to go back and get them back out so I could make this Teacup Boutique Card because I just liked all the products in this group!
This card starts with a Garden Green card base. I used a designer paper pattern with a foliage print for the card layer. Using another paper design in the Tea Boutique DSP and the Teacup Dies, I cut out this red flowered teacup. I also diecut a Basic White piece of cardstock with the retiring Stitched Rectangle die and a larger one in Garden Green for the layer.
Before adhering the teacup to the Basic White piece, I put it where I wanted it to go and then removed it and stamped the leaves as if they were coming out of the cup. I used Garden Green ink for the leaves and also stamped some Sweet Sorbet flowers. Then I adhered the teacup with a little teabag tag hanging out with a bit of white twine adhered to the back of the tag and to the inside of the cup.
To embellish the card a little bit, I stamped a lemon slice and die-cut it and also added some little Fun Flowers Resin Shapes along with the stamped flowers. On the inside of the card, I added a Basic White layer with a strip of the foliage designer paper on the left just to decorate the inside a little bit and be ready for a personal note!
