I had so much fun with the Tea for the Soul set:


First up is the “Fill Your Cup” card:

I printed the main images on Canson Watercolor 90 lb  Cold Press paper.  This works beautifully with our laser printer, doesn’t get jammed.  I used my Zig Clean Color Markers with that beautiful Tea cup image.  

I generally feed my digitally printed images through my Scan ‘n Cut but this time I fussy cut both.  Sometimes I find it therapeutic to hand cut.

I used a coffee ring stencil in the background, that has been inked up with Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide.  

The pattern paper on both cards is a vintage Stampin’ Up pad, Moonlight Designer Series.  I love the color palette.
Next up is my shaker card:

I colored this image with the same colors as my first card.  This tea cup is a bit darker.
Can I tell you that this shaker sounds especially glorious with those big iridescent sequins?  Gotta love the sound of a shaker card!

That’s it for me, next up is my fav teamie,  Robyn Jordan!

  8. I always have a hard time printing digis and my printer jams. Thanks for the tips. Just lovely cards. Love your coloring and designs.

  9. Such pretty cards. I'd love to be able to watercolour digital images but it seems I have been using the wrong watercolour card. Will try and see if I can find/try some lesser weight smooth watercolour card. Thanks for the inspiration!
