This was such an enjoyable card to make. I used two backgrounds from stash-the large one under the diecut and the teacup. The teacup is made from a panel of Saran Wrap printing, using the Brilliance metallic ink. No water involved when you use pigment ink. Sentiment stamped and clear embossed with the same ink. Background is an experiment with DOx sprays and acrylic paint, lots of shimmer and shine. I sprayed the diecut on top with two sprays-Bo Bunny sugar and then a little bubble gum pink.
I decided that I needed to CASE Pat (casep) as much as possible this week because she is a true blue, dedicated tea potter. I used this card for inspiration: MMTPT565 For Chris by casep at Splitcoaststampers
This will go to Jeanne, who is 85 years old, used to love to stamp but her eye sight is failing. I might be that Jean someday and it scares me. But, besides taking care of my eyes, not much else I can do. I used many different products from Pat's creation but I think you can see the similarities. A well deserved FS week!

Oh my, I LOVE THIS!!!! Great backgrounds you used, but that sentiment grabbed me. So pretty and so well done, Jean. One of my favorite cards you have done in a while but then I love tea. Hugz

The background under the swirling curling die-cut layer is just beautiful. So is your one-of-a-kind cup. I always think you have the best collection of sentiments, the font and design of that one are lovely.
