Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Materials:
Cardstock: White, Tan, Green, Two Different Patterned Papers and Tan Vellum
Cricut Cartridge Once Upon a Princess Teacup, page 62 (Base and Layer Shift)
CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps Brew HaHa, "You're Tea-riffic!"
Darice Embossing Essentials Simple Pattern (Wavy Lines/RickRack)
Crochet Thread
Black Pigment Ink
Mounting Tape
I wanted it to look like a "real" cup, so I cut 2 cup images and glued them together...only on the edges, leaving the top open. I stuffed a small amount of tissue paper into the cup, to give it dimension. The "heat waves" are made from vellum. The sentiment is made to look like the end of a teabag. I single mounted the tan rectangle.
Hope you like my project.
