Hello Classy friends, Diane here today

with my "I "LOVE" Tea" card for our challenge this week

"Tea Party"!

I just love the pretty Spring colors of this card!

It was a little bit of fussing around with it,

but I think well worth the effort!!

Let me tell you how I made it.

I started by adhering Double sided adhesive Scor-tape sheets

to Pearlized Esse White Metallic card stock before I die cut.

I then placed my PoppyStamps Teapot Stack die on

and ran it through my Cuttlebug a couple of times using the

Cuttlehug Large Shim.

This gives you a nice sticky backing to adhere down to your card.

 I embossed a panel using the  Darice Doily Lace embossing folder.

then adhering the teapot die cut  to that.

Then I decided to get real creative, and picked out a few scrap pieces

of paper, adhered them the same as I did the die cut, to the Scor-tape sheet

and ran each color through my machine.

Using the Crafters Tools by Cheery Lynn Designs,

I carefully "picked" each piece out and adhered it in it's place.

so easy using one of the picks from the set!

Lastly, I added some flowers.  If you saw one of my previous posts

using the new Heartfelt Creations Botanical Rose Stamp set and

Botanical Wings die set, you will remember I cut several "extra"

flowers, thinking they would come in handy later.

Well, they certainly did!

I used 5 of the smaller flowers and using the Paper Blossom Tool Kit

and Paper Blossoms Craft Molding Mat, I formed my flowers.

The flowers were colored with Susan's Garden PanPastels coloring kit,

and finished off with Lavender Pearls.

The tiny Leaf Clusters are from Impression Obsession.

I encourage you to join in the challenge with us this week, 

we would love to have you!!
