I like playing with digi images - you can make them fit whatever size card you need. I printed this onto white card and cut it out with my Spellbinder die using the "out-of-the-box" technique. I decided to have ivory teacups with the patterns in turquoise and just a touch of orange. I mounted the image on some turquoise paper from my stash. I decorated the card base with various stamps from Waltzingmouse - they were made to go with these teacups! And the sentiment is just fab.
I was having so much fun with the teacups that I made another card! I decided to go a bit bolder this time.

I opted for portrait style this time - so the teacups were printed bigger! I used Promarkers to colour the cups and then fussy cut them out! I mounted them onto a pretty label that I cut from Crumb Cake DP; I inked the edge of the label while still in the die. The sentiment is a quote from C S Lewis and seemed appropriate - I printed it on the PC and cut it out with the super folded banner die (a present from my buddy Tara). I inked the edges and then attached it to the card.
Thanks again to the DYSU team for asking me to join them - I've had such fun! That's all for now. See you soon.
