🍕 Pizza my Heart! 🍕

Hello Tea Timers, DT Emma here and I’m back today with this super sweet Valentine’s Day card. 

For my card today I have used the Time for Tea Designs ‘Let’s Spoon’ stamp set and coordinating die set.

To create the love heart background I used the heart die from the ‘Be Kind Be You’ set and cut out a stencil from some scrap card. I used the colours Candied Apple and Festive Berries Distress inks to stencil the hearts all over the background. 

I stamped the Pizza on to some Neenah Classic Crest card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them in with my Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers. 

For a finishing touch I added some T4TD Festive Fun enamel dots. 

For the sentiment, also from the Let’s Spoon set, I stamped it with my Versafine Onyx Black ink. This ink always creates a crisp looking sentiment.

Sweet On You Shaker Slimline

Happy Valentine's Day! DT Annalisa here today and I’d like to share a slimline Valentine's Day shaker card I created using the Sweet On You and Warm Hugs stamp sets from Time For Tea Designs.

To create the background, I began with Ranger Distress Watercolor Cardstock and used Saltwater Taffy, Picked Raspberry, Tattered Rose, and Spun Sugar Distress Watercolor Pencils. I soaked the pencils in water, scribbled them onto acetate, and then spritzed the acetate with water. After that, I pressed the acetate onto the watercolour paper repeatedly, heat-setting and spritzing with water as needed. I also used Mica Spray Stains in Cocktail Party and Sugary Gumdrop.

Next, I followed the same process on another piece of watercolour paper using Salvaged Patina and Tumbled Glass Distress Watercolor Pencils. Additionally, I applied Peacock Feathers Distress Spritz, Wonderland Distress Mica Stain, and Salvaged Patina Distress Spray Stain.

I used the Slimline Scalloped Trio Circle Nesting Dies to cut out both the pink and blue panels. For the pink panel, I die-cut three hearts using one of the Heart Nesting Dies. I then glued the blue panel to a slimline card base.

To assemble the shaker element, I adhered acetate to the back of the pink hearts panel using double-sided tape. I placed 3mm double-sided tape on the back of the pink panel and attached it to the blue card panel. Before securing the pink panel, I sprinkled a mix of Candy Christmas and Mermaid Tail sequins from Pawsome Stamps in the appropriate areas.

Then, I stamped and coloured the images from the Sweet On You and Warm Hugs stamp sets using Copics. I die-cut them out with the coordinating dies and added white gel pen accents using a Gelly Roll Pen.

Finally, I used liquid glue to adhere the images and the "I'm Sweet On You" sentiment to the card. I finished by adding Glossy Accents to certain areas of the images for added dimension and shine.

📚 To my Favourite Bookworm! 📚

Hello Tea Timers! DT Emma here and today I’m sharing with you a super cute scene card. For my image I’m using the sweet little Bookworm from the ‘Book Buddies’ A6 clear stamp set. Isn’t he just the sweetest!

To colour my image, I have stamped him on to Crafters Companion Solar White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured him in with my Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers

To frame this sweet little critter I have used one of the Scalloped Circle dies alongside the Simple Circle dies to cut out the aperture. For the hills I have cut 2 other circles in white card and distressed them with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in the colours Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint. 

I have used 2 sheets of patterned paper from the Pretty Pastels 6×6 paper pad (one main and one for the sky background) and some of the green enamel dots from the ‘Festive Fun’ set.

For the sentiment I have taken the ‘To my Favourite Bookworm’ also from the ‘Book Buddies’ Set and stamped it on to some white card with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Heart Shaped Valentine

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I am sharing a heart-shaped card I created with watercolour pencils and the Sweet On You stamp set from Time For Tea Designs.

I used the Heart Nesting Dies to cut watercolour cardstock. I coloured red and pink hearts, starting with the smartest and ending with the largest, with Distress Watercolour pencils.

I used the following colours of Distress Watercolour pencils: Lumberjack Plaid, Festive Berries, Picked Raspberry, Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar. I added splatter using spun sugar and worn lipstick Distress Watercolour pencils.

I learned this technique from an online course by Jenn Shurkus - "Distress Techniques, Watercolour Pencils - part 2" and I love how it turned out.

I die-cut a large heart from teal cardstock and adhered it to the watercoloured heart panel with double-sided foam tape. I used a Gelly Roll Pen to add stitched lines to the teal cardstock.

Next, I stamped and used Copics to colour images from the Sweet On You stamp set. I die-cut them out with the coordinating die set. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen.

I stuck the images and sentiment to the card base using double-sided foam tape for dimension.

To complete the card, I added dots glitter with Cotton Candy Stickles and heart stickers in my stash.

🤗 Hugs Enclosed 🤗

Hello Tea Timers! Can you believe it’s the 1st February already!

Today I’m sharing with you a sweet simple card, and I’m using the cute little Squirrel from the ‘Jumping with Joy’ stamp set.

Time for Tea Designs Shop

To colour my image, I have stamped him on to Crafters Companion Solar White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured him in with my Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers

I have used a sheet of patterned paper from the Pretty Pastels 6×6 paper pad and some of the Clear Bubbles enamel dots for some cute interest. I’m sooo addicted to using these dots!

To frame this sweet little critter I have used the smaller die from the Smile Inverted Scallop Frame Dies alongside some white card stock.

For the sentiment I have taken the ‘Hugs Enclosed’ from the ‘Be Kind Be You’ Clear Stamp Set and stamped it on to some white card with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Love Ya Lots!

Happy Friday, from DT Annalisa! I am sharing a Valentine's Day card I created using three die sets from Time For Tea Designs and Distress Water Colour Pencils.

I started by using the Stitched Quilted Cover Die and the Sweet Scalloped Dies on white cardstock to create two white panels. I adhered the stitched piece to a card base with double-sided tape.

Next, I added some splatter using Spun Sugar and Salvaged Patina Distress Watercolor Pencils, water, and a watercolour brush. I secured this splattered panel to the card base with double-sided foam tape.

For the hearts, I used the smallest heart die from the Heart Nesting Dies to cut out nine hearts from Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I coloured the hearts using the following Distress Watercolor Pencils: Spun Sugar, Saltwater Taffy, Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina, and Lumberjack Plaid.

For each heart, I first coloured the entire shape with one colour and then heat-set it using the Ranger Heat Tool. I layered on a second and third coat of the same colour, heat-setting in between layers.

By heat-setting throughout the process, I was able to control the water and keep the pigment in place.

Finally, I used liquid glue to adhere the hearts to the card base. I chose the 'love ya lots!' sentiment from the Brighter Days Sentiment Cards | White on Grey, attaching it with double-sided foam tape for added dimension.

Hello crafters,

Daisy ( DaisCreaPlace) here with my last card as a design team member of T4TD. 

Unfortunately, due to new regulations, it is not possible to promote this brand properly from the EU. My adventure at T4TD was short, but I really enjoyed inspiring you with these beautiful items. 

Today, one last card for you. A cheerful, sweet card. Of course, I will continue to use the T4TD items and you can find the creations on my personal account.

    For the base of this card I used the Five windows cover die. I colored it with Distress Oxide ink in the colors Dried Marigold, Saltwater Taffy and Candied Apple.

    Over this I used the Scattered hearts stencil.

    The stamps are from the Fruitful friends set. I colored them with Copic alcohol markers.

    I made the word Sweet with the Antony's alpha dies.

    I wish you all lots of hobby fun! 

Love Dais
