The above card is made from Graphic 45 paper called Once Upon a Springtime. They have these sheets with frames on them. I punched the window out and used some Tim Holtz crackle glaze to give it a cracked effect. Then I rubbed a little distress ink on it so the cracks would show up better. Sorry, the picture is very poor. The flowers were part of the frame, but I added a little to them using the trio flower punch from Stampin' Up, adhesive pearls and a Soft Suede marker. I believe that punch is retired. The close up of my flower embellishments is below.
I am hooked on tea cups, it would appear. Again I used the tea cup image from Stampin' Up's Tea Shoppe stamp set and enlarged it 150%. Then I cut it out of the Paisley Petals DSP. I made my own tea bags using white paper and vellum and the tags punches from Stampin' Up. The tea bag tags have a message stamped on them using Fabulous Phrases and the sentiment is from All Holidays.
