Oh we are all creatures of habit in one way or another. I start and end every day with the Earl of Grey. Even when I am vacationing at the lake, he comes along. Pals Paper Arts' color challenge this week was to use So Saffron, Chocolate Chip and Basic Gray. As I thought about what to create this morning, the answer appeared right in front of me! I followed the Stamping411 sketch and used a sentiment from Favorite Thoughts. And last but not least I snipped the string from my tea bag to share with you - there is nothing better than a cup of tea with a friend.......
So perfect! I love all of the details, right down to the Tea Bag tag!
ReplyDeleteTea Bag Tag! Another brilliant idea! Wow!
ReplyDeleteYou are so smarty smart smart!
Genius! I love it!
ReplyDeleteand you were worried about how to combine these colors...the solution was right in front of you on your daily tea!
PS and the pic outside at camp looks really nice!

Can I join you for a spot 'o' tea at that lakeside table?! Looks like a jolly good location for some fine Earl Grey--a personal favorite too. Your card is lovely and so perfectly elegant with the colors and tea theme--even the Grey tea tag coordinates--so clever you are!
ReplyDeleteOh I think your card is delightful!!! They way you combined those colors is perfect. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteLove the card and EG is my favorite, too! TFS
ReplyDeleteI LOVE my evening tea too!! I adore this card, and love the 'tea' tag!! SO cute
ReplyDeleteLinda, this is absolutely stunning! Gorgeous take on the colors and you really rocked this! XOXO
ReplyDeleteLinda - absolutely love it! I hadn't thought to put the tea bag tag with this sentiment... brilliant idea. I too begin and end my day with tea. However, I'm an Irish Breakfast girl. I like my tea strong and rich (like my men... but I have better luck finding strong, rich tea :-)...)
ReplyDeletethanks for inspiring us
hugs
