Tea and A Mouse

Hello.  I am back again to share my card I made the the sketch at Waltzingmouse.  I used my PTI stamps because I am still waiting for my first WM order.  Maybe today!  I can't wait.  I must not be mentally ready for fall.  I can't stop using pastels.  I made another pastel card I will share tomorrow.  ;)
I have been horribly neglecting my Cuttlebug embossing folders lately.  I decided to start using them again.  I am leaving them out so that I remember to use them.  This is the only new one I have bought recently.  I used it on a card last week.  Very pretty flourish design.
 I also put a little bag inside and put a couple of green tea bags in there.  Isn't this cute?  Perfect little gift for someone sick or just because.  That is why I didn't put a tag on it yet with a sentiment.  I can add that when I decide who to give it to depending on the situation.
Supplies:
Cardstock:PTI/Sweet Blush, Rustic White
Stamps:Tea for Two
Ink: Memento/Tuxedo Black, PTI/Sweet Blush & Hawaiian Shores
Ribbon: Offrey
DP:My Minds Eye/Home, PTI/Bitty Dot Basics 2009
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder/Flourish
Die: PTI Matching set for Tea For Two
Buttin and Twine: PTI

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Heather

    Heather I don't mind if you use pastels. In fact; your creations are always beautiful! Whether you use pastels, bright, dark or seasonal colors; I always get inspired and your blog is always lovely to visit. I visit your blog on a daily base...and if there isn't something new: there is always your archive to go through. Filled with beauties...
    And this card? I'm smitten....I love your style; gorgeous!
    Hugs,

    This is so very shabby-chic gorgeous! I know what you mean about the embossing folders... every time I see someone's card with an embossed background, I think Sheesh I need to get mine out and use them!!! Then I use them once and forget about them all over again, LOL! I should get them out and put them in a container on my desk... you have inspired me. :) This is such a thoughtful and beautiful little packet of goodness for a lucky recipient.
