Cozy Book and Tea Lover Card

Hello friends. I pullled out some Catherine Pooler products over the weekend, just to have a little creative play time. You know what I'm talking about, that urge to create! I grabbed some inks, papers and the Flavors of Fall stamp & die set. Scroll down for brief creative details. You'll find my supply list at the end of this post.

I started with an A2 sized vertical scored card, then trimmed a 3"x 3 1/4" card panel and another one, approximately 3 1/4" x 3 1/2". 

I swiped the smaller panel with Catherine Pooler Designs (CPD) Cove Blue Ink, then used my blender brush around the edges with more ink to make it darker.

My larger card panel was ink swiped with CPD Goldenrod ink.

My tea cup was stamped with Goldenrod ink and I masked off the edges of the cup with tape on the lower left to stamp a leaf design with CPD Mandarin Spice ink. The leaf is also part of the Flavors of Fall stamp set.

Next, I trimmed a cute tea bag from some patterned paper from the CPD Right At Home paper pack, and adhered it to my cup with a tiny piece of burlap string from my stash. You could also use white thread as an alternate to the burlap string.

My donut from the same stamp set was stamped with  CPD Amber and Apricot ink, then heat embossed in white. I added tiny "candy" dots using my Scrapbookcom Pops of Color in Orange Squeeze. My sentiment was also heat embossed.

 

My books and candle were also trimmed from the Right At Home patterned paper, and I used a q-tip with some white paint to smudge in a glow behind the candle.

Lastly, the wooden "table" was created from the same paper pack and I trimmed it with angles on each end to give the appearance of a table. Creating tables and counter tops with paper is one of my favorite things to do for a scenic card. It's so easy and simple but offers a great impact.

To create the table, cut your paper 1/2"H x 3 1/4"W. Then trim angles on each side by at least 1/2"-3/4".

Thanks so much for popping in. This would be such a fun card to give the book lover or tea lover in your life. Have a great week, everyone!

Terri
