Tea for Two?

Happy Monday!  Are you ready for this week's Bitten By the Bug2 Challenge? This week's challenge is to create any project with a kitchen item on it. Now, admittedly, I don't own any cartridges associated with cooking or the kitchen as I am, as I like to say "kitchenly" challenged. But thankfully the Joys of the Season cartridge has an adorable tea cup on it. I started with a red card base and covered it with a linen patterned paper. I cut the teacups from a teenie-beenie floral print with a red shadow. I blinged up the cups with some rhinestones, butterfly clips, twine, and vintage brads. I added paper ribbon across the top, letter stickers, rhinestone swirls, and paper flowers. I think it's a fairly simple design but cute too. Go check out the other designs at BBTB2 and link up to share your project with us!  Have a great week!


Miles of Smiles,

I love your card, Melissa...... Joys of the Season is such a wonderful cartridge and I need to go back and use it more. When it first came out, I was constantly using the cuts. Love that bling.
