Garden Party Collection Day 1

Hi there! This month I am honored to join The Greetery for their Garden Party Release. I am such a huge fan of Betsy’s designs and this month is no exception! My first card features the Sips Tea Stamp + Cut Combo, Stencil along with the Tipsy Strip Die. For the background I used one of the A2 Stitched Scallops Dies along with the Scalloped Gingham Stencils. I will have a video showing how I made this card when the release goes live. You can find the video HERE!

The Greetery-Sips Tea

My second card features the Pours Tea Die & Stencil along with the Brew-Tea-ful Stamp & Bouquet Die. I used one of the A2 Stitched Scallops Dies for the background as well.

The Greetery-Pours Tea

My last card features the Fine China Stamp, Die, Stencil & coordinating Hot Foil Set. How gorgeous are these plates? You could change up the colors to create so many different looks.

    Laura, your cards are lovely. They remind me of days with Grandma and the family… sitting down after a nice dinner with a cup of tea and a dainty dessert. The colors with touches of gold are so elegant yet dainty , relaxing and welcoming. Ahhhh, the good old days. Thank you for sharing your wonderful creativity.

    These cards are adorable. My mom would love this set. I have all her depression glass tea cups and saucers in many patterns and colors. Fun fun. Thank you for the inspiration.

    Laura – this is such a pretty & FUN card….. I love that the receiver of the card can tip the cups whichever way they like! Great for all ages, too!
