Hello, Crafty Makers!
I am exhausted! Every election cycle, I swear I am done, but just when I think I am out, "they keep pulling me back in!" I am running behind on everything, including posting this project for MY OWN BLOG CHALLENGE!I am super excited about our optional theme (Something New) this month because one of the things I am running behind on is my Amazon Reviews. I have three new dies and some lovely papers to review and share with you. Today, I am sharing this lovely Die, "There is Always Time For Tea." And "Retro Material Papers."
There's Always Time For Tea
I wanted to use fall-inspired colors because I am trying to use all my old Graphic 45 Papers. I found out way too late that the G45 aesthetic is simply not my Vibe. I have been successful using many of their papers on small elements, such as the teapot, biscuit tin, and teacups, in this design!

I decided to leave the spoon white. Covering it with designer paper made it indistinguishable from my kettle! The word "nice" did not emboss on my napkin, so I used one of my rubber stamps instead. I think the black ink provides the eye with relief from all the white and orange.
As a final touch, I added a bit of "White Opal" Liquid Pearls to the lid of the tea kettle and the biscuit tin.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

OH! This is beautiful Chana, love the dies and the papers. Hope all is well. x
ReplyDeleteYour project is such a charming celebration of autumn warmth and cozy creativity. The way you incorporated fall tones into the teapot and biscuit tin adds a nostalgic touch, and your use of Graphic 45 papers on small elements is a clever workaround that really works. The stamped napkin detail and the Liquid Pearls elevate the whole composition with texture and contrast. I especially admire how you balance visual interest with restraint—leaving the spoon white was a smart choice for clarity.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you visited my blog and left a comment—it led me here, and I hope you’ll stop by again soon.
