Tea Together Tips

When I first saw this set I knew the perfect person to receive the first card and her birthday is coming up, so here it is!  I won't say who it will be going to, just in case she peeks in.

Recipe:

Powder Pink - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"

Powder Pink - 4" x 5 1/4" - Embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder

Whisper White for Teapot

Shimmery White for doily, cut with Beautiful Layers Thinlits then cut in half

Whisper White for Sentiment - cut with Rectangle Dies

So, I want to tell you about the new cling stamps that are in the latest catalog.  They are VERY VERY sticky!  So, here's a tip for you to remember so that you don't ruin them like I almost did.  After you put your stickers on them and have them all assembled, use some washi tape on the edge of the sticky side, like a handle.  If you put them into their case or on a clear block when you stamp, you may have a very difficult time getting them up unless you have something that keeps part of it from sticking - aka - the washi tape.  Leave the tape a bit long so you have something to grab and lift with.

Here it is on the clear block:

My next tip for you is for stamping the flowers onto the tea pot.  Stamp your tea pot onto the paper you wish to use and then, stamp it  again onto a post it note.  Cut out the center of the pot along the lines so you can stamp a flower or leaves and not have them stamp outside the lines.

Then color as desired.  I colored mine with Pool Party Stampin' Blends as lightly as I could.

Thank you for looking in today!  Have an awesome Saturday.  I know I will because I will be stamping with our Stampin' Up! team of demonstrators!
