Still working on cards for special occasions in my family in the month of June. This one is for my twin sister, Sylvia. She loves tea and when I found this digital tea set I knew it would be perfect for her birthday card. I arranged the tea pot and tea cup and added Happy Birthday using a font before printing the image on white cardstock and trimming it out of the large sheet. I rounded the corners and layered it onto a light green cardstock to coordinate with the background paper I chose for my card. I made this one another front flap card. They have been fun to make!! I started with a large envelope, created a white card to fit inside and then added this beautiful background paper. It is a sheet she donated to me from her stash in an effort to downsize. She has a very good eye for paper and the sheets she gave me are all very nice. I found the stamped blue cardstock in my stash, trimmed it to size after scoring it at a half inch so I could adhere it to the back of my panel card. I ran my pattern tracing wheel over it several times before attaching it to my card using double sided tape and glue on the flap. I mounted my focal element with the tea pot on my blue flap after distressing the edges of the green layer using my distress tool. I added several dots of pink using a gel pen on each of the corners to add a bit of interest. We are looking forward to seeing each other somewhere outside with social distancing!! Therese
