simon says stamp monday challenge: coffee or tea?
This week the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is all about Coffee or Tea. I usually drink coffee in the morning, and tea at night. Whenever my sister comes to stay the night, we catch up over a cup of tea. I thought the Tim Holtz Sizzix Tea Time Die would be perfect to make a card for her:
I made the background using one of the papers from the Wallflower paper pad, and gave it some painty layers with stencils, stamping in paint, and bit of paint spatter with my Liquitex splatter brush (it sure is fun to use).
I cut the tea cups out of the cork paper from the Tim Holtz Textured Surfaces, then painted them with Distress paints. Once they were dry, I added some patterns to them by stamping another layer of Distress paint on with the Distress Damask Cling Stamps.
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $50 gift voucher that will go to one random challenge entry. So please join us for this week's challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. You might also be on our Friday Designer Spotlight. Good luck, I can't wait to see what you make!

What a lovely thought and I am sure your sister will appreciate you sending her a card just because! Love the pretty cups and the soft distressed background.
I can’t take my eyes off of this gem, Cheiron. So much texture and detail – and, of course, love. What a wonderful creation!
Stunning background, love to see layers. Beautiful card

Such a lovely card, Cheiron. The colors and patterns are gorgeous. ๐
If this is the kind of genius crafty gift that one sister makes for the other one, then I’m sad that I don’t have a sister! This is a great piece and I really love the background. I also liked how you made the two teacups so individual and unique– like sisters (or so I imagine)!
Lovely card! The stacked teacups are wonderful! Hugs, Sandra
Gorgeous card, Cheiron and your background is amazing, it really showcases the gorgeous die cut cups perfectly… ๐
Lovely card and the hearts are the perfect touch.
A beautifully inked and composed work of art for your sis. Well Done!
