For A Tea-rrific Friend – Thank You For Being You – Alex Syberia Designs

Happy Monday, friends!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!! I’m back with the card that I shared for the Alex Syberia Designs Instagram hop on Friday!! The Tea & Books and Lace Doilies & Borders Die Set Die Sets from the Cozy Tea Time Release captured my heart!!

I began by die-cutting the elements for the focal point from aqua, pink, yellow, green, brown and white cardstock using the Tea & Books Die Set. I added shading with blending brushes using Peacock Feathers, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn and Lost Shadow Distress Inks, then adhered all the die-cuts together with liquid glue. I aded a bit of Glossy Accents to the coffee for a little shine.

For the background, I spread a thin layer of iridescent glitter gel  onto a panel of aqua cardstock through the Sparkles Stencil, then set it aside to dry. The doily frame and doily from the Lace Doilies & Borders Die Set were die-cut from white cardstock. Once the gel on the background was dry, it was die-cut with the largest pierced rectangle die in the Nested Scalloped Frames Die Set and the doilies were adhered with liquid glue.

The sentiment, from the Lucky Cat & Friends Stamp Set, was stamped onto teal cardstock with clear embossing ink, embossed with white embossing powder, then cut out with the Coordinating Die.  The small sentiment on the teapot is from the Tea & Books Stamp Set. It was also embossed with white embossing powder. The sentiment and die-cut elements were arranged and popped up with foam tape. Clear confetti was sprinkled diagonally across the design to add a little more sparkle.

I really love how this turned out and hope you do, as well!!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!! Have a wonderful week!!
