Tea's Up

Good Morning everyone from a lovely wet Cornwall.

So today im sharing the card i made for my mum for Mother's day.  I went with a tea theme this year as she does love her cup of tea!




First i made the table/table cloth using patterend paper and curved border die, cut some table legs from dark green card.  Die cut and paper pieced the cups, teapot and jug from various papers and dark green card to match the colours in the tablecloth. 
I added glitter glue accents to the flowers.  6x6" size.


This shows the dimension i added to the table cloth, and as i wanted the china to be sat on the table i used lots of glue gel,  I die cut a small spoon and fork in silver mirror card and placed on the top top. 



Again showing the table top, also as the front was quite heavy to counter balance i used the same papers to layer up for a matching insert. 

Im pleased to report mum loved it. 

Items used:  Patterned papers B&M 'springtime bouquet'
Joy crafts teapot & cups die set
Xcut 'tea party' die set
Spellbinders scalloped borders 2 (S5202)
