Time for Tea - Mothers Day

 
Here is a great Mother's Day card and gift in one.
 
In the shape of a tea pot I have used Creativity Club
papers and covered and tea pot shape, front and back.
 
 
 
Using Docraft felt to make flowers cut with Xcut
bloom die, lace from vintage range and a couple of
sentiments from my stash.
 
In the centre of the card is Twinning tea bags.
and ribbon to tie it all together.

 
Thanks for looking, please feel free to leave any comments.

Vintage Notes

I just love working with vintage notes,
the fabrics are great and give such a wonderful finish.
 
The first is using adhesive backed fabric in between
twin that has been wrapped around Kraft card
to give a diamond effect.
 
Felt flowers cut using Xcut bloom die and heated
to give a mottled effect, and a fabric covered
brad put through to hold the bloom together.
 
Sizzix flourish behind to add interest in the
Spots and Strips cotton fat quarter.  Sentiment
with blue Anita's ribbon threaded through.
 
 
 
Another adhesive backed fabric paper mounted onto
Kraft card with lace trim and gold ribbon.
Paper doily with felt flower cut etc as above.
 
This sentiment tag has some of the packaging
 twine  threaded though to finish.


 
Filigree card blank which has been inked in two different colours.
Acetate attached with lace trim down one side.  Vintage
notes  paper doily and sentiment. Sizzix flourish and
butterfly to finish the front.  

 
The inside has a linen paper
which you can see though the filigree.
 

 
This card has been covered in a green linen paper,
Circle cut out of one of the filigree papers, spots and
strips bloomer added to the centre with a fabric
brad.  Lace strip for a border, gold sentiment and gold
bling to finish.
