Hoppy Easter Fun!

Hello Tea Timers!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s inspiration are some adorable bunnies gathering eggs and carrots in a playful and happy scene, perfect for celebrating the season!

Supplies used:

Eggstra Special Birthday

I started by creating a soft sky background with light clouds using Salvage Patina Distress Oxide. I then added a couple of vibrant grassy layers to ground the scene (using Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxides). The bright greens really help all the colourful elements pop and give that fresh springtime feel.

The sweet bunnies are busy collecting decorated eggs and carrots, with lots of little details scattered around to keep the design fun and lively. I used a mix of soft pastel shades and brighter tones for the eggs to add variety and interest across the card.

To finish everything off, I mounted the finished scene onto a yellow gingham background, giving clean and cheerful look. The “Hoppy Easter” sentiment heat embossed onto blue cardstock ties it all together and adds a fun little pun to make the card extra cute.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Sending Easter Wishes

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here, sharing a bright and cheerful Easter card I created using stamps, stencils, and dies from Time For Tea Designs. I absolutely love the fresh spring feel of this card; it really makes me look forward to spending time out in the garden!

To start, I ink-blended Dusty Concord, Faded Jeans, and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks onto white cardstock using the Mini Egg Pattern Stencil. This created a soft, colourful background with a fun Easter vibe. I then added white splatter using Picket Fence Distress Spray Stain and a watercolour brush for a bit of texture and interest.

Once the panel was dry, I adhered it to a card base and added a white die-cut stitched border to frame the scene and give it a clean, finished look.

For the sentiment, I used the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die, cutting it from both silver and black cardstock. I layered them slightly offset to create a subtle shadow effect, then adhered it to the top of the card with liquid glue.

The images come from a mix of sets, Fruitful Friends, I Really Dig You A4 Printed Cardstock, Ewe Are Moovellous, Eggstra Special Birthday, Cacti Critters and Oops A Daisy A4 Printed Cardstock. I coloured the stamped images with Copics and added white gel pen accents for extra detail and highlights. Each element was then adhered with liquid glue to complete the scene.

Adventure Together!

Hello Everyone!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s card is all about friendship, fun, and a little bit of adventure. These sweet critters are having the best time flying through the sky on their paper planes!

Supplies used:

Paper Plane Pals

Sentiment - Adventure Awaits

I created a soft rainbow cloud sky by inkblending with Worn Lipstick, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxides. The different colours gives the card a warm and happy feel, perfect for what I wanted. I added some gold splatters to add a touch of sparkle.

The bunny and panda each have their own little paper plane, in soft pastel tones tying beautifully with the background and keep everything nice and cohesive. Their scarves and goggles add such a fun detail and really bring the scene to life. I also added some extra clouds and tiny hearts to give moment and extra whimsy!

The “Love our adventures together” sentiment heat embossed onto purple cardstock fits perfectly and makes this a lovely card for a special friend or someone you share lots of happy moments with.

Birthday Herd

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here sharing a spring birthday card I created using the Ewe are Moovellous A4 Printed Cardstock from Time For Tea Designs. These beautifully colored images, printed on high-quality cardstock, make it easy to create eye-catching cards.

I started by ink-blending Salvaged Patina Distress Ink over the Scene Builder 6x6 Stencil onto an A2 card base, then added blue ink splatter for extra interest.

Next, I die-cut white cardstock using the Wonky Window Cover Die and ink-blended it with Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, and Twisted Citron Distress Inks. To add texture, I splattered on Rustic Wilderness Distress Ink and Picket Fence Distress Spray Stain. I adhered this panel to the card base using liquid glue.

I then used the Ewe Are Moovellous coordinating dies dies to cut out images from the Ewe are Moovellous A4 Printed Cardstock. Using a combination of double-sided 1mm foam tape and liquid glue, I adhered the images and sentiments to the card.

To finish, I added clear Wink of Stella to the images for a subtle shimmer.

Time To Relax!

Hello Team Timers!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s card is all about treating yourself or someone special. This cute little spa scene felt like the perfect way to capture a relaxing moment, complete with bubbles, bath time and a happy little kitty enjoying some well deserved pampering.

Supplies used:

Queen For The Day

To start, I created a soft blue tiled background using Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide and a brick stencil to give the card that classic bathroom feel. The adorable kitty soaking in the tub is the star of the card, surrounded by lots and lots of floating bubbles and a couple of little hearts that add to the cozy spa vibe.

To bring the scene together, I added a few bath time accessories like bottles, a brush and a hand mirror along the bottom. The colourful bubbles scattered throughout the card help create movement and make the whole design feel light and cheerful.

The “Relax, pamper yourself” sentiment heat embossed onto bright pink cardstock ties everything together and makes this a perfect card to send as a little reminder to take some time for yourself.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Lots Of Luck Shaker

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here, sharing a fun green shaker card just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. For this project, I used stamps, dies, and a stencil from Time For Tea Designs.

I began by applying Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Spray over the Flirty Flowers Stencil. After carefully removing the stencil, I heat-set the ink. Next, I sprayed Twisted Citron onto the background to fill in the remaining white areas. Once that layer was dry, I finished the background with splatters of Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide.

To add texture and interest, I die-cut the green panel using the Stitched Quilted Cover Die, then cut the sentiment from the panel with the Lots of Luck Large Sentiment Die. I adhered a piece of acetate behind the sentiment opening using liquid glue to create the shaker window.

I created an A2 card base from cardstock and adhered a piece of silver dotted patterned paper so it would show through the sentiment opening. Then, I added 3mm double-sided foam tape to the back of the green panel and attached it to the card base, filling the shaker area with green, silver, and gold sequins.

The stamped images are from the Good Luck Critters, set, which I die-cut with the coordinating dies. I coloured them with Copic markers and added white gel pen accents. For extra sparkle, I applied a little Quickie Glue Pen along some edges and sprinkled on Lawn Fawn Prisma Glitter.

Finally, I adhered the images to the card with liquid glue to complete the design.

Wishing You Lots of Luck!

Hello Everyone!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s inspiration is bursting with bright colour and a little bit of lucky charm! With rainbows, clovers and two adorable kitties!

Supplies used:

Good Luck Critters

To make the card, I started by building the background with a soft cloudy sky (Mustard Seed Distress Oxide) and bright green grassy hills (Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxides) to give the card a fresh outdoor feel. In the centre, I added a pot of gold with a sparkling rainbow stretching up into the sky. To make it extra festive, I scattered lots of clovers flowing out of the pot and across the scene.

The two sweet cats help bring the whole card to life. One is holding a large lucky four leaf clover while the other is dressed up with a tiny hat and bow tie, ready to celebrate the occasion. I added a little shimmer to parts of the rainbow and the clovers for a bit of magical sparkle!

The “wishing you lots of luck” sentiment heat embossed onto green cardstock finishes the card perfectly and makes it great for St Patrick’s Day or for sending someone a little extra luck and happiness.
