Acrylic jar is painted with crackle paint, dried, then alcohol ink and alloy ink plus alcohol to spread into all the cracks. Plants are alcohol inks on Yupo. Stencils and script stamp used over gesso on TH paper. Round paper plate is also TH paper spritzed with water and wrinkled into a ball, then opened back up and dried. Twine is wrapped around paper above for texture. Cardboard letters spell TEA. The sprinkles are from a real lavender and honey tea teabag which I drank last night and then laid the teabag and tea leaves out to dry overnight. The cardboard birds are die cut from a box of Archway cookies, and there is a cookie charm sitting on the paper plate. The project is stapled to a cardboard backing for sturdiness.

Kandie, this is soooo fun! I see so many totally fun details and I love them all. The cookie and the crackle paint on the vase are my faves but everything is just so creative and great! So glad you are playing in our challenges! You are so good at MIX. Hugz
