Teacups & Roses Slim Line Blessings Card
For the card front: Place the card with the fold at the top. Cut 6¼"x4¾" Teacups & Roses pink dots cardstock and 3¾"x4¾" pink lace cardstock. Mat the long edges of the lace cardstock on solid pink cardstock with 1/8" borders, then glue it centered on the dots cardstock. Glue the dots cardstock centered on the card front.
Cut 6¼"x 7/8" Teacups & Roses pink plaid cardstock and mat the long edges on pink cardstock with 1/8" borders. Wrap a 7" length of the ribbon across the strip and glue the ends to the back. Glue the strip to the front, ½" from the card bottom. Punch out the Teacups & Roses “you’re my cup of tea” die-cut and glue it at the upper left, extending ¼" off the left edge. Trim away the excess.
Remove the chipboard teapot and single teacup from the backing. Press the Honey Pot ink pad firmly in several places on the craft mat. Repeat with the other ink pads, overlapping them slightly. Spritz water over the ink a couple times (not too much), then press the teapot into the diluted ink. Lift, check for uninked areas on the teapot, and press back into the ink until it’s completely colored. Repeat with the teacup, then let both dry.
Use Extra Sticky tape to attach the teapot as shown. Foam tape the cup just to the lower right of the pot. Make a 4-loop bow with the ribbon and tie the center with thread. Glue the bow to the first ribbon as shown. Glue a ¾" posie over the ribbon center with a small leaf extending from under it.
For the inside: Cut 6"x4" Teacups & Roses yellow plaid cardstock with the lace border along the right end. Mat it on gold cardstock with 1/8" borders, then glue it centered on the inside. Cut the pink rose banner die-cut into 4½" and 2 5/8" lengths, then glue both as shown.
