Trio of Teacups Thinking of You Fun Fold

Stampin Up Teacup Trio Thinking of You Card - Rosanne Mulhern Heartfelt Stamping

Good new week to you and Happy Spring!  

I feel like I was really late to the party in purchasing the Cup of Tea bundle.  However, I’m trying to make up for lost time as I’ve just been enjoying it so much.  I’m also hoping that perhaps it will make the catalog cut and stay around a little longer.

Today’s card is a fun fold that I’ve made several times.  But I’ve always used it as a gift card holder.  This card is a Thinking of You card that holds a fittingly appropriate tea bag.  

Materials & Measurements

  • Petal Pink card base:  cut at 11″ x 4 1/4″, scored at 5 1/4″ & 8 1/2″
  •  Basic White front panel: cut at 3″ x 4″
  • Hello, Irresistible DSP front panel: cut at 2 7/8″ x 3 7/8″
  • Basic White inside pocket: cut at 4″ x 2″
  • DSP inside pocket: cut at 3 7/8″ x 1 7/8″
  • Basic White sentiment panel: cut at 5 1/4″ x 4″
  • DSP on sentiment panel: cut at 4″ x 3/4″
  • Petal Pink strip on sentiment panel: 4″ x 1/8″

Details

  • Fold and burnish on the score lines, creating the card front and inside pocket.
  • Using Tear & Tape, secure the sides of the inside pocket.
  • Add the card stock and foliage pattern from the Hello, Irresistible 6 x 6 DSP to the front of the card.
  • Cut three solid teacups from the same DSP and three open teacups from Basic White card stock to create the teacups.  Add three more Basic White solid teacups to the back of each teacup.  This is what you’ll see when you open the card.
  • Add a small tea tag to center teacup.
  • Using dimensionals, line the teacups along the fold.
  • Stamp the sentiment, from the Country Bouquet stamp set to the card front.

  • Add the card stock and DSP to the inside pocket, along with another die cut teacup and tag.
  • Stamp the sentiment and lemon slices, from the Cup of Tea stamp set.
  • Glue to the inside of the card and add the DSP & cardstock strips to the right side.

I included my favorite tea bag.  If you like lemon and haven’t tried this, you should consider it.  It’s like having a slice of lemon pound cake in a teacup.  It actually feels like you’re having dessert just drinking it…delicious!

It would take additional postage to send this card in the mail, but totally worth it to treat someone to an unexpected cup of tea!

As always, thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a beautiful first week of Spring!

Take care,

Rosanne

Irresistible Blooms Hello for Tic Tac Toe Challenge #200

If it’s Thursday, it’s time for another Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  This week Vicky on Team X has a fun board filled with Springtime elements.

I’m still pretty enamored with the Irresistible Blooms bundle. This suite of products lends itself to so many ways to create beautiful cards and projects.  I’ve been sending a lot of “Just Because” cards lately and this is one of them.

  • Pop the panel onto the card base with dimensionals.
  • The flowers and leaves were stamped on a piece of DSP from the Hello, Irresistible 6 x 6 paper in Versa Mark and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

  • Lastly, I added a few Loose Frosted Dots.

  • The inside sentiment is from the Beautifully Happy stamp set, which was a Sale-a-bration set.  It has really wonderful sentiments that I know I’ll be using over and over.
  • I matted it on a coordinating piece of DSP for a little different look.
  • The tiny leaves were cut from the DSP using a die from the Irresistible Blooms dies.

I hope you’ll head over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see all the wonderful projects the Design Team came up with this week.  And I hope that you’ll join us this week…we’d love to see what you create.

Perfectly Penciled Birthday for CC2C

It’s CASEing Coast to Coast Wednesday! Welcome back to CASEing Coast to Coast with Karen Hallam in CA and myself here in PA.  Each month Karen Hallam in CA and myself here in PA take turns CASEing (Copy and Selectively Edit) each other’s projects concentrating on a specific stamp set, card layout, theme or technique.  This month, Karen chose a Birthday theme. We all need birthday cards, so hopefully our cards today will deliver a bit of inspiration.

Take a look at Karen’s fresh and pretty card.  You can head over to her blog HERE to get all the details.

 

When I look for card ideas, the first thing I usually do is look through my Designer Series Paper to see if any pattern or color combination jumps out at me.  Well this wasn’t exactly easy because right now I think Stampin’ Up! has so many wonderful paper options.  When I came upon the Perfectly Penciled paper, I decided to ditch the color combinations and keep it simple with a classic black and white card.  But I have to tell you, I had to talk myself out of coloring this paper with Stampin’ Blends.  I still have some leftover that will probably get some color, but just not today!

Irresistible Blooms Card & Candy Box Set

Irresistible Blooms Thank You Card & Candy Box - Rosanne Mulhern Heartfelt Stamping

Good Monday Morning!  I hope you had a nice weekend albeit an hour short!  I don’t know many who will complain about gaining more daylight especially coming towards the beginning of Spring.  

I’ve been creating with the Irresistible Blooms Suite for days now.  I just can’t seem to let it rest…it’s just that irresistible to me!  So today, I’m sharing a card and a treat box.  You may recognize the box I embellished.  It’s the retired Mini Pizza Box.  I loved these boxes and that’s probably why I still have three unopened packages.  I think they make the perfect little treat holder or 3 x 3 card holder.  Mine holds some chocolate.
