Welcome to our newest Featured Stamper, cookielady01. You have a lovely gallery and it was fun to have a stroll through. I really loved all your cards with the Sheltering Tree set (one I don't have). But in the end, it was Nice cuppa Birthday Card I decided to case. I really like how cheerful your card was, Joyce!
I used an embossed background as well as tea cups. My tea cups are patterned DP (these cups were part of my 'I might use those someday stash for the Free4All this week!) and I stacked them. I also used a tea bag, but mine is a stamp (Impression Obsession tea bag hearts) with a Upcycled tag from my cuppa Ginger tea this morning.
It is from a local company that includes uplifting snippets on each tag.
The little snippet on the tag says: If we give happiness to others we will end up happy. This is going postal tomorrow...I know that truth will go far!

Delightful - every wonderful little detail on this card is delightful! Love your patterned paper teacups, the strings on the tags, and especially that up-cycled tag from your morning tea. So clever! Bet this was a wonderful surprise to whoever was the lucky receiver. TFS!

What a gorgeous card this is Susan! I love these oh-so pretty tea cups and how fancy they look with your gray-embossed bg. I really love the bit of texture on the one teacup. The sentiment on the tiny tea tag is quite special. You sure made a terrific card based on Joyce's lovely inspiration card. ~Karen.

Look at that little heart on the tea tag. Sweet card. I love different patterns together, and you have pulled them off magnificently. I am sure you did bring happiness to the lucky recipient.
