Let’s Roll Into Birthday Fun!

Hello Everyone!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today we have a group of cute friends piling into a car with cake, presents and balloons, ready to celebrate in style!

Supplies used:

Car Critters

Let’s Party

Birthday Cake (sentiment)

To create the card, I started by ink blending a rainbow cloud background with some gold splatters to give it interest. The grassy hillside adds a pop of fresh green giving that cheerful outdoor feel. The road at the bottom helps ground the whole scene and really makes it look like they are on their way to the best party ever.

The star of the show has to be that adorable blue car, packed to the brim with gifts, a huge birthday cake and the happiest little passengers. I love how each character has their own personality, all dressed up in party hats and bringing the celebrations with them. It just feels so joyful and full of energy!

For the finishing touches, I added some gold swirly details for a bit of sparkle and movement, plus a bold pink sentiment banner to tie everything together and make that birthday message pop.

Thanks for stopping by!

Something Sweet Just for You!

Hello everyone!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s card is a sugary delight featuring the sweetest little hippo baker and a mouthwatering display of treats. This one is all about sharing something sweet with someone special and I just love how it turned out!

Supplies used:

Snappy Before Coffee

Let’s Party

Baked With More Love

Baked With Love Kitchen Add On

The background is a soft green stripe pattern that gives the perfect bakery wallpaper vibe. All of the elements were stamped, coloured with alcohol markers and arranged to build up this charming dessert counter. Cupcakes, muffins, a fancy layer cake and more are all proudly displayed on their stands.

I gave the hippo baker a matching hat and bow tie combo in teal to coordinate with the background and added a subtle blush to their cheeks for that extra bit of cuteness. 

The sentiment “something sweet just for you” is heat embossed in white onto a woodgrain-style shelf that runs across the bottom. Finally, I framed the whole scene with a stitched scalloped rectangle for a soft, inviting feel. 

This card was such a joy to make and would be perfect for a birthday, thank you or just because!

Sending sweet crafty wishes your way!

Happy New Year!

Hello everyone!

Design Team member Michelle here and we're ending the year with a bang and a bottle or two of fizzy pop with this super fun New Year celebration card! 

Supplies used:

Hey There Critters

Birthday Cake

Let's Party

These adorable critters are all dressed up and ready to welcome 2026 in style, complete with party hats, golden balloons and confetti flying everywhere. I love how festive and bright this design turned out - it's the perfect way to send some joyful wishes for the year ahead.

To create the background, I took some navy cardstock and randomly stamped the confetti filler type stamps from the Let's Party stamp set with embossing ink and heat set it with gold powder. I added further splatters of gold paint to give it that firework sparkle. 

The numbers were die cut from gold foiled cardstock and layered for extra dimension. I coloured the characters and bottles using alcohol markers, keeping the palette nice and celebratory with blues, golds and bright pops of green. 

Finally, the sentiment was heat embossed in white to make it stand out against the dark background.

This card was so much fun to put together and is sure to make someone smile as they ring in the new year.

Wishing you all a happy and creative 2026!

Michelle

Let's Party with Stars and Stripes

Hi. Design team member Koren Wiskman here. I hope that I can inspire you to create something fun with all of these awesome T4T supplies. Today I am using the Let's Party sentiment die and the Stars Stitched cover die to create this project.

The card size is A2 (4.25in x5.5in.) The front panel is cut to 3.25in x 4.75in. This is my favorite size card to create. I have tried so many others but this size is the one that keeps my heart happy. My card bases are typically made using a neutral gray cardstock. These two details about my cards rarely change. 

Background

I had some scrap strips of paper in various colors that I adhered to a piece of copy paper using a tape runner. I then cut the stars from the Time for Tea Designs Stars Stitched cover die. I also cut the stars from heavy weight white cardstock. The white stars are cut in half and then popped up on the the striped stars using thin foam adhesive squares. The where added the the front card panel using various widths of adhesive foam squares. 

Sentiment

The T4TD Let's Party sentiment die was cut three times using heavy weight cardstock and layered on top of a layer cut from pink paper. I offset the pink paper at the back of the stack of layered die cuts to create a shadow effect. It also helps the sentiment stand out with all of the white. I told you that I like my white space, I warned you. 

Embellishments

The asterisk like pieces decorating the background are from my stash. I am really interested in using what is in my stash right now. I have so much. I want to use it, even if you can't buy it anymore. 

I hope that I've inspired you to create something today. Check out the Let's Party Sentiment Die or the Starts Stitched Cover Die in the T4TD shop.

Let's Party with Splatters

Hi. My name is Koren Wiskman and I am a brand new member of the Time for Tea Designs Design Team. I hope that I can inspire you to create something cool with all of these awesome T4T supplies. 

Today I am sharing an A2 size card (4.25in x5.5in.) The front panel is cut to 3.25in x 4.75in. This is my favorite size card to create. I have tried so many others but this size is the one that keeps my heart happy. My card bases are typically made using a neutral gray cardstock. I'm using the Time for Tea Designs Let's Party Sentiment Die to create this card. I should warn you, I enjoy my "white-space". My card designs can be all over the place, much like my personality. I hope you enjoy. 

BACKGROUND

To create the background I used various inks to spritz, splatter, and drip some color onto the panel. Some pink, black, and gold to be specific. It is popped up using craft foam and tear tape adhesive. 

SENTIMENT

The sentiment is the star of the show. The Let's Party Sentiment Die was cut out a total of four times using a tabletop die-cutting machine, and then layered together using liquid adhesive. The first three layers are thick white cardstock and the last layer is brushed rose gold metallic cardstock. 

EMBELLISHMENTS

I added three gold butterflies from my stash using glue dots. My stash is large, to say the least. I need to start using some of these products that I've acquired over the years. So, YAY! I used my stash! 

I hope that I've inspired you to create something today. Check out the Let's Party Sentiment Die in the T4TD shop.

Hey there Tea-timer friends...

DT Ashlee here with a new card, let's party (by party I mean craft!) 

To create this card I started with a yellow card stock base that I added stencilling too using the Movie star stencil. I then die cut it from the sweet scalloped die before adhering it to a card base. 

I added a focal sentiment by die cutting the lets party die from black card and teal blue card before adhering together slightly offset. I then stamped the sub sentiment from the warm hugs stamp set directly onto the card base underneath the die cut using black ink....

It was now time for the cute little penguin with cupcake to be added to the card. This was stamped, coloured and die cut using the co-ordinating dies (coloured using Spectrum noir tri-blend markers).

To complete the card I finished it off with some pretty sequins!

What do you think?! do you like it....

Thanks for stopping by, happy crafting. Hugs Ashlee. 

Let's party and eat treats!

Hey Tea timer friends...

DT Ashlee here today, Who's ready to party?!....

I hope you said yes because today's card is party theme and this kitty cat is ready to celebrate, eat lots of yummy cake and sweet treats!

I used these Time for tea designs products for this card :

- Let's party stamp and co-ordinating die collection

- Birthday cake stamp and co-ordinating die collection

- Let's party large sentiment die

- Hooray sentiment and cover plate die

To create this card I started with a yellow card stock base die cut from the hooray cover plate. I then added ink blending with Wild honey distress oxide ink on both sides of the panel leaving it light in towards the centre.

Using the lets party sentiment die I die cut it twice (once from pink card and once from black) so that I could layer them together creating a shadow. I also added a bit of ink blending to the pink layer to create an ombre of colour. 

This was adhered to the top of the card base using foam tape to start adding dimension to the card. 

I stamped, coloured and die cut a bunch of images from the two stamp sets Let's party and Birthday cake. These were coloured using Spectrum noir tri-blend markers. I added a few highlight's using a white gel pen.

I adhered all the images in place using different levels of foam tape to create a cute little scene full of treats and then completed the card with a touch of pretty sequins!

That's all for my card today, I hope you like it and it got you in the party creating mood. Happy crafting, till next post hugs Ashlee.

Hey there Tea-timer friends....

T4T products used for this card....

- Birthday cake stamps

- Let's party large sentiment

To create this card I started with a blue card stock base. I then die cut the lets party sentiment four times from a darker blue card stock so that I could glue them to the card base creating a bit of a cover plate look. once those were all adhered in place I cut off the excess from the edges and then stamped the sentiment directly onto the base using Memento tuxedo black ink.

I stamped, coloured and die cut the birthday cake images and adhered those using different levels of foam tape to create dimension!

To complete the card a touch of sequins and some white pen highlights to the images.

That's all for my post today, I hope you like this calorie free card. Happy crafting, hugs Ashlee.

Let's Party

 

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here, my T4T project today is a celebration card featuring the Let’s Party stamp set. The kitty popping out of the gift is my favourite stamp in the set. When I was a teenager, my parents got me a ginger kitty for my birthday as a complete surprise and I loved it. 

I sprayed Dusty Concord Distress Oxide Spray through the Movie Star 6 x 6" Stencil, removed the stencil and sprayed Salvaged Patina Distress Spray to create the background panel. I added black watercolour splatter once the panel was dry. I added this background to an A6 card base.

 

I ran white cardstock through my Bigshot twice, once using the Stitched Quilted Cover Die and a second using the Wonky Windows Cover Die. I stamped the Let's Party sentiment to the panel using my MISTI and then used double-sided foam tape to stick it to the card base.

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) images from the Let’s Party, Birthday Fox, and Birthday Cake stamp sets 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.

Let's PARTY fox!

Hey there Tea-timers...

DT Ashlee here, who's ready to party?! I hope you are because I have a party themed card to share which might make you want to get your party on too.... 

This card uses these Time for Tea designs products :

- Birthday fox stamp & co-ordinating die collection

- Let's party large sentiment die

- Simple square nesting die

To create this card I started with a white card base that I inked with distress oxide ink Mustard seed. I then splattered it with Gansai Tambi paint. Once it was dry I adhered a layered square set from the simple squares die cut from black and yellow card. 

I die cut the Let's party sentiment from black and blue card stock so I could adhere them together slightly off set to create a shadow. Also added little ink shading to the bottom of the blue cut. This was adhered so it would hang off the focal square. 

I stamped a bunch of images from the Birthday fox set and coloured them up with Spectrum noir tri-blend markers before die cutting them with the co-ordinating dies. These were all arranged and adhered above the sentiment. 

To complete the card I added a stamped sub sentiment also die cut with the co-ordinating die and a touch of pretty yellow sequins!

This fox is ready to PARTY! 

I hope you enjoyed my card today, thanks for stopping by. Until next post happy crafting, hugs Ashlee. 

Let's PARTY!

Hey Tea-timer friends...

DT Ashlee here sharing some new Time for Tea designs inspiration with you! 

Today's card uses these t4t new release products :

- Let's Party large sentiment die

- Let's party stamp and co-ordinating die collection

To create this card I started with a white card stock and masked off the bottom half. I used this space to cover with distress oxide ink so that once the tape was removed I had a pink background for the images. 

I stamped, coloured and die cut a selection of images from the Let's party set and adhered them to the top portion of the card base using different levels of foam tape to create dimension in the little scene.

(These were all coloured using alcohol markers with added white pen highlights)

Using the Let's Party large die I die cut it twice. Once from black card stock and once from a teal blue card stock. I was then able to create a shadow by off setting the black card cut behind the teal blue one. I adhered that in place and stamped a dub sentiment directly onto the base. 

To finish the card off I added a small touch of sequins!

Thanks for checking out my card, I will be back with more crafty inspiration very soon! In the mean time if you would like to do some shopping at the T4T store you can use code - T4TASHLEE10 for a discount off your purchase.

Happy crafting, hugs Ashlee.

For today's card I used these new priducts

- Gummy bears stamp & co-ordinating die collection

To create this card I started with a piece of white card stock that I die cut using the stars cover die. I then made it into a shaker card using lot of fun embellishments backed with pink card stock!

I then added a large Let's party sentiment that I die cut from black card stock to the base. Once that was adhered I stamped a bunch of images from the Gummy bear set and coloured them in using Spectrum noir tri-blend markers.
