Lots Of Luck Shaker

 


Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! Saint Patrick's Day is on Monday, so I am sharing a lucky green shaker card. It features the Lots of Luck Large Sentiment Die and Good Luck Critters stamp set from Time For Tea Designs.

I used Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn Oxide Sprays and Peacock Feathers Distress Spritz on watercolour cardstock and added shimmer black watercolour paint splatters for interest. Once the panel was dry, I cut it out using a stitched rectangle die and then die-cut into it with the Lots of Luck Large Sentiment Die, making sure to save the inner parts of the letters.



I used double-sided tape to adhere acetate to the back of the green panel. I then used liquid glue to stick the inside of the letters of the 'Lots of Luck' sentiment onto the acetate.

Using a Beautiful Blender Brush, I ink-blended Squeezed Lemonade onto a piece of yellow patterned paper from the Gorgeous Gingham 6x6' Paper Pad. I secured this to a card base with double-sided tape.
  


I placed sequins on the yellow patterned paper and secured the green panel on top using double-sided foam tape.

I stamped several images from the Good Luck Critters stamp set and coloured them with Copic markers. I added white gel pen accents and then die-cut the images with the coordinating dies.

Finally, I used liquid glue to stick the stamped images to the card.

🐰 Hoppy Easter 🐰

Hello Tea Timers! Welcome back to the Time For Tea Designs blog! I hope you’ve all had a great week so far! 

Today I’m sharing with you a super cute scene card, and I’m using the ‘Bunny Builder’ die set from Time For Tea Designs.

Time for Tea Designs Shop


Making the card:

To create the Bunny I cut all the pieces out of plain white card stock and used the ‘Tim Holtz Distress ink’ colours Pumice Stone to create the shadows and Spun Sugar to colour the pink areas of the bunny. I then glued them all together. To create the carrots I have cut out another piece of white card and used the Distress colours Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint for the leaves and Spiced Marmalade and Ripe Persimmon for the carrot. 


To ground this sweet little critter I have used some white card and one of the the ‘A2 Layers’ die set. For the clouds and hills I have used the ‘6×6 Scene builder’ stencil alongside the Tumbled Glass, Mowed lawn and Forest Moss Distress inks. I have popped this up with some foam tape for added dimension.

For the background layer I have used a sheet of patterned paper from the ‘Pretty Pastels’ 6×6 paper pad.

For the sentiment I have taken the ‘White Velvet Alpha’ stickers and stuck them on to a thin piece of coral coloured paper and then popped this up with some foam tape. 

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

Party Duck


Hello, and Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here. Today's project is a fun birthday card I created using the Lucky Ducks stamp set and several dies from Time For Tea Designs.

To make the background, I used alcohol inks on Yupo paper and the Tim Holtz Ink Air Blower. I combined Alcohol Blending Solution with alcohol inks in Amethyst, Indigo, and Mermaid to create a teal and purple background.

Once the background was dry, I die-cut it with the Stitched Quilted Cover Die and attached it to a card base with liquid glue.


Next, I used an Evergreen Bough watercolour pencil on watercolour paper. I soaked the pencil in water, scribbled it 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 die-cut the watercolored panel using the Stitched Circle Dies and adhered it to White Silver Neenah cardstock, which I had previously cut with the Scalloped Circle Dies. I then used double-sided foam tape to attach these pieces to the card base.


For the sentiment, I used the Let’s Party Large Sentiment Die on both White Silver Neenah and black cardstock. I layered them slightly offset with liquid glue and then adhered the sentiment to the card base.

I stamped one of the ducks from the Lucky Ducks stamp set and a balloon from the Birthday Fox stamp set. After colouring the images with Copics, I cut them out using their coordinating dies and attached them to the card base inside the circle panel with liquid glue.


To finish the card, I added silver stars that I die-cut with a small star die from my stash and included Clear Bubbles Designer Enamel Dots.

🐑 Thinking of Ewe! 🐑

Hello Tea Timers DT Emma here! As we are now in March I thought it would be nice to start the month off with a happy Spring card! Today I have created a super cute box card featuring the ‘Ewe are the Best’ stamp and coordinating die sets.

Time For Tea Designs

To colour my images, I stamped them on to Crafters Companion Solar White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them with my Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers.

To create the box card I have used an alternative die this time, but you can use your T4T ‘Box Clever’ Die Set and create a shadow style version or change it up and bit and use the hills at the top of the box to create something like mine. Very versatile! 

To create the hills I have used a sheet of the green flower patterned paper from the ‘Pretty Pastels’ 6×6 paper pad. I have also used a sheet for the sky and the spots which are also from the same pad. I just love the Time for Tea paper pads! Soooo cute! ❤️
