Hey Guys!,

Tea Together No Line Stamping

Hey Guys!

Today I am sharing with you a card I made in remembrance of my Mom.  All the women/girls in the family would meet up and have tea at a very upscale tea room!  This was our tradition.  When I saw the stamp set from Stampin’ Up! Tea Together I HAD to get it!  I saw online a LOT of cards featuring this set and the No Line technique. It was so pretty I decided to try it out myself!

Here is my take:

I made a video that you can see here.  This was a lot of fun once I got past the worry about doing it right!  I had to remind myself that it is just PAPER!  LOL

I used the Designer Series Paper All My Love to be a ‘table’ for my tea set.  Flirty Flamingo was used for the left  tea set, Mint Macaron for the right.  I felt as if I was an artist, and I really love how it came out!

After making these cards I wanted a Home Decor item that I can forever remember my Mom and all the good times we had.

The framed art I saw was by Sara Levin, here is her framed piece:

I only had an 8″ x 8″ frame so I made mine a little bigger.

I hope you enjoyed this post, and will come back again!

If you are living in the US and are in search of a SU! Demo I would love to work with you!  Below are pictures of what was used to make these projects, click on any picture below and you will be taken to my OnLine Store!
