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.

Lucky To Have You as a Friend

 

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! Spring is finally here, and I'm excited to share a bright mini slimline card to celebrate. I created it using the Good Luck Critters and Mini Slimline Scallop Dies.

For the sky background, I sprayed Distress Spritz in Peacock Feathers and Distress Spray Stain in Salvaged Patina onto acetate. I then sprayed water on top and pressed it onto watercolour cardstock.

For the grass, I soaked Crushed Olive and Peeled Paint Distress Watercolor Pencils in water, scribbled them onto acetate, and spritzed the acetate with water. Next, I pressed the acetate onto watercolour paper, heat-setting it and spritzing it with water as needed.

I trimmed the sky and grass sections and used liquid glue to attach them to the back of the Mini Slimline Scallop Dies, which I die-cut from white cardstock.

I added double-sided foam tape to this panel and adhered it to a 6 1/2 by 3 1/2 inch card base.

For the focal points, I stamped and coloured several images from the Good Luck Critters set using Copics, and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added accents with a white gel pen using a Gelly Roll Pen.

The flowers are from the Ewe Are The Best set, and the butterfly is from the Kitty Capers set. I used foam tape to adhere the stamped elements other than the flowers, which I used liquid glue to adhere.

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.

Wishing You Lots of Luck

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here, since St. Patrick's Day is coming up, I am sharing a bright green card featuring the Good Luck Critters from Time For Tea Designs. I love how vibrant and intense Distress Paint is and enjoyed using it. 

I squeezed twisted citron Distress Paint onto my glass matt, sprayed it with water, and then smooshed watercolour paper into the ink. I trimmed this paper to 5 1/2 by 3 3/4 inches and glued it to a card base with liquid glue. 

I die-cut the letters 'luck' using Anthony's Alpha Dies with the leftover green inked paper. I added white gel pen accents to each letter with a Gelly Roll Pen. 

I die-cut white cardstock using the smaller of the Sweet Scalloped Dies and ran this panel through my Big Shot again using the Stitched Quilted Cover Die - I love the pattern it creates. I used liquid glue to adhere to the card base.

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) images from Ewe Are The Best and Good Luck Critters and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. 

I used liquid glue to stick the tree, four-leaf clovers and flowers to the card base. I used double-sided foam tape to adhere the rest of the elements and the sentiment to the card.

Lots of Luck

Happy first Friday in March. DT Annalisa here sharing a bright green card ideal for wishing someone luck on a new challenge or adventure. It features several products from Time For Tea Designs. 

I sprayed Distress Oxide in twisted citron, mowed lawn onto the Flirty Flowers Stencil, and pressed it onto watercolour paper with my fingers. I used a paper towel to soak up the extra liquid. I lifted up the stencil and spayed gently with water.

Once the panel was dry, I die-cut it with the new Sweet Scalloped Dies. I used liquid glue to stick it to a 5 3/4 inch by 4-inch card base.

I die-cut gold and black cardstock with the Lots of Luck Large Sentiment Die. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen to the black cardstock and glued this on top of the gold cut-out slightly offset to create a shadow effect. I used double-sided tape to adhere this to the card base.

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) images from Oops a Daisy (cat), Good Luck Critters (mouse, clovers and horseshoes), Just Married (small flowers) and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. 

I adhered the images to the card base using liquid glue or double-sided foam tape for dimension. I added Glossy Accents by Ranger to various areas of the card and then adhered Designer Enamel Dots from the Festive Fun collection to complete the card.

Hey there, Tea Timers!!  It's Amanda here and today I am sharing a sweet little birthday card!

I stamped my images from the Just Married, Eggstra Special Birthday, and Good Luck Critters stamp sets.  I colored these little cuties with Copic markers and then die cut them out with the coordinating dies.

For my background, I created my one-layer background using the 6x6 Scene Builder Stencil.  I adhered my critters and sentiment onto my card panel with 3D foam squares.

I added a few sequins to give it a little extra pizazz!

And that is it for me today!!  Thank you so much for stopping by the Time for Tea Designs blog today!  I hope you find some time to get crafty today!

Interactive Saying Hello Card

 

Happy Friday. DT Annalis is here sharing a fun interactive shutter card featuring elements from several adorable stamp sets from Time For Tea Designs. The animal friends are having a great time in the warm sunny weather. 

 The following stamp sets were used to create this card: 

Lucky Ducks

Treat Yourself ('flying' mouse)

I Really Dig You (bee and butterfly)

Good Luck Critters (four-leaf clovers)

Hey There Critters (mouse)

Beavering Away (wood stump)

Jumping With Joy (porcupine)

Paper Plane Pals (clouds)

Darling Daffodils (sentiments)

To create this interactive card, I used the 'Shutter Card' die and 'Shutter Card Add-On' die from Lawn Fawn and followed several of their instructional videos on YouTube.

I used one of the Slimline Hillside Scene Dies to cut into stencilling material to create a stencil for the grass and sky. I love using my dies with this material to create stencils and get more use out of them.

For the sky, I ink-blended Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink using my Beautiful Rainbow Blender Brushes. I added Uncharted Mariner Distress Ink splatter with a paintbrush and water. I ink-blended Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide for the grass and added Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide splatter. 

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) several images from the above stamp sets and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. I used liquid glue to stick all of the images and the sentiments (from Darling Daffodils) to the card.

For the front of the card, the sections were ink-blended with Mermaid Lagoon; the panels are green cardstock that was ink-blended Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide splatter; the outer band is orange cardstock ink-blended with Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide. I die-cut patterned paper from the Sweet Summer 6x6' Paper Pad for the circle area and ink-blended it with Wild Honey Distress Oxide.  I used liquid glue to stick the duck to this circle.
