Have A Tea-rific Day

Hello Everyone,

After spending the afternoon at my kitchen table, (crafting) I have a card to show you. This card will be kept as a stock pile for June. In my family we have 8 birthdays and father's day in June. So it's a crazy month for birthdays and I like to always give homemade - semi personal cards. This card will be for my mother-in-law.
My mother-in-law and I have TEA in common. We love tea and it seems to be a common thread in our relationship. We usually have tea together everytime I go over there.

I used the current sketch over at Kraftin' Kimmies :
and I was also inspired by the OCC challenge - a tea party. I thought this adorable KK Stamp would fit the challege perfectly!!

I colored her with my fave - Copic markers.
Here is a snap shot of the colors used :
and a few detailed shots of the coloring :

Well, I hope you enjoyed this as much as I'm sure my Mother-in-Law will.
I hope you have a good day and take the time this weekend to share a moment with a loved one.
As my dad would say - "It's all about the love!!"

Thanks for popping by!!

  1. This is adorable! Such a cute image and I love the way you stamped the tea cups for the background and then colored one up as an embellishment - very clever! So happy you joined our tea party this week at Our Creative Corner!

  2. Very cute! Isn't it amazing how many Copics it takes to colour an image? Thanks for playing with us at the OCC.
