Today I have used the Tea Together stamp set and co-ordinating Tea Time dies to make a card for the Just Add Ink #440 challenge. The theme this week is ‘add something new. The stamp set and dies were my new items and I used them with the Tropical Escape dsp and the Scallops embossing folder.
Making the card
I started by choosing a piece of the Tropical Escape dsp, and after a lot of trial and error went for the soft Blushing Bride floral pattern. I decided to use the Stamparatus to stamp the teapot image; I wanted the image to show on the dsp and with the Stamparatus I could stamp it multiple times to get the depth of colour I was looking for. I used Basic Gray ink to do my stamping. When the image was stamped I die cut it using my Big Shot and the Tea Time dies.

I chose a Smoky Slate card base and stamped the flower from the Tropical Chic stamp set in Smoky Slate ink randomly over the card front. The flower is the identical image to the flower on the piece of die cut dsp. The tone on tone stamping just gives some interest to the background.
Taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” I ran it through the Big Shot with the Striped Scallops Embossing Folder and added it to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added the die cut tea pot to the embossed panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment from the Balloon Celebrations stamp set in Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate onto scrap Whisper White cardstock before using the Banner Triple Punch to flag the end. I added a thinner strip of Blushing Bride cardstock behind and added the piece to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. To finish the card I added a scattering of the gorgeous Share What You love Artisan Pearls.

I think the embossing folder you have chosen is perfect for this card – it reminds me of a vintage wall paper. Chantell Just Add Ink
