Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Collaboration Blog Hop

Happy Saturday everyone, 

Today I am especially excited to be part of the Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!

My card is centred around these adorable Llama stamps and I just had to create a party themed creation with them.

To start I stamped and coloured my images using my Spectrum Noir markers, then die cut out using the matching dies (colours listed below in order of lightest to darkest)

Llama - FS1, FS5, FS9, - TN1, EB1, EB2 

Cactus - CH1  GC3, GC2, DG3

Light Pink - PP1, PP4, PP2

Dark Pink - PP2, BP2  BP1 

Yellow - CT1, CT3, CT4

Orange - GB1, GB3, GB5

To create my background I created an ombre effect onto a piece of white card using distress inks in Kitsch Flamingo,  Spiced Marmalade and Squeezed Lemonade. I then took the Circles of Life Stencil and using the same colours to add a bit of interest. I finally cut out the panel using the Slimline Quartet Dies.

To add to my party scene I used the cute little presents from the Pandamonium Party stamp set and the balloon image from the Hooray Hamsters stamp set.

I matted the whole panel onto black card and created a long slimline card blank from white card. To finish off I added a few clear sequins randomly across the card.

I used my Spectrum Noir markers to colour the sweet couple in the following colours.

CH1, CG2, CG3, CG4, DG3

For my background I cut the Lots of Love Vertical Cover Die from white card and pieced the hearts back in place securing with tape on the back. This was matted onto black card before adding to a 5x7 card blank trimed down to size.

I kept the card simple and used a couple pf strips of the paper from the Joyful Winter 6x6 Paper Pad just to ground the image.

The sentiment was stamped and embossed on black card and cut our using the matching die. To finish off I added a few small clay hearts around the the image.

  Good afternoon everyone, 

Happy Sunday, today I'm over on the Time for Tea Designs blog sharing some more inspiration from our new summer release.

Hi Friend

Good afternoon everyone today I'm over on the Time for Tea Designs blog sharing this sweet CAS card using the adorable Car Critters stamp set.

Hello Friend

 Good afternoon everyone,

Today I wanted to share with this bright and cheery hello card I've made from the new Brighter Days release from Time for Tea Designs.

I am very much a cute critter kinda person on my cards, however I fell in love with this gorgeous Mandala Stencil and wanted to make this the focal point of my card.

I trimed a piece of white card using the largest die from A2 Nesting Dies and offset the Stencil towards the bottom RH side.

Using distress inks in the following colours: Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean and Picked Raspberry I blended from the centre of the mandala to the outside.

I die cut the Hello Sentiment from pink card 3 times and layered together to give it dimension, stamping Friend underneath.

The whole panel was added to the front of a 6x6 card blank cut down to 12cm wide with foam tape and finished off with a few randomly placed Clear Drops.

Pop up Ducks

Good afternoon everyone and happy Sunday.

I'm so excited to be over on the Time for Tea Designs blog  sharing this card with you today.  Quite a while ago on one of the lives Jo had asked what us Teatimers would like to see in upcoming releases, one of my answers back then was ducks. So I can't tell you how happy I was when I actually saw them feature in this months release.

For my card today I decided to make a box card, which I have seen all over social media lately and just love the design. And obviously I used the adorable Lucky Ducks stamp and die set .

You can find all the details for this card HERE over on the T4TD blog along with a step by step picture guide on how to create the box.

Easter Greetings

  Good afternoon everyone, 

Happy Easter!  Hope the Easter Bunny visited and you've all had your fill of chocolate treats. We certainly had our fair share here this morning, coupled with 3 days of birthday treats we definitely have enough chocolate to see us through for a while!

Anyway, I'm here today to share with you my first official post for Time for Tea Designs and I what a cutie I have to share with you today!

I took part in Jo's recent colouring class and the free digi image that was part of the class was so adorable. I thought it was such a shame to colour it up and not use it especially as it was perfect for an Easter card.

You can find all the details for this card HERE over on the T4TD blog.

Slothy Birthday

Good morning everyone,

Pinch, punch its the first of the Month! It's the 1st of April, however we have no April Fools here, just a very excited 15 year old celebrating her 2nd lockdown birthday.

We are also celebrating something very exciting over at Time for Tea Designs. Today is the day we launch our new monthly challenges! Pop on over to the blog for all the details on how to enter and win yourself a fabulous prize🎉

So onto my card, the theme for our  first month's challenge is "Cute Critters" now these adorable sloths from the Be Slothy  stamp set happen to be one of my T4T favourite stamp sets and a certain person asked for them on her Birthday card so I just had to use them.

I started by colouring my images with my Spectrum Noir markers (colours listed below in order of lightest to darkest) and cutting them out with the Coordinating Dies.

Sloth - body EB2, GB8, GB10

face/belly - EB1, EB2

Eyes - EB5, EB7

Branches - TN5, TN7, TN9

Leaves - GT1,  GT2,  GT3 

I took the Scalloped Circle Trio Slimline Die, cut a panel of white card and used the leaf, flower and butterfly stamps from the set to create a patterned background. I then adhered this onto a piece of white card stencilled with clouds from the Scene it 6x6 Stencil.

I used the next size up die to cut a piece of teal card and finally cut a scalloped piece in pink. I matted all the layers together and added to the front of a slimline card cut to 23cm x 10cm.

I finished off with the "Happy Birthday" sentiment in the bottom right hand corner and a few randomly placed clear drops.
