Finally Friday – You’re My Cup of Tea
Good morning, all!
A couple weeks ago, I made a cupcake card using BasicGrey’s Nook & Pantry collection. It was such a hit and I loved it so much, I knew I had to make another card using the collection. This time, instead of a cupcake, it’s a little teacup from the Cup of Tea stamp set. Now, I’m not a big tea drinker, but I had my fair share of tea parties as a girl, so this little teacup was just calling out to me. Too cute!
And then the awesome rickrack and dots came from another stamp set from the collection, Crumpets. Love it!
CHALLENGE: Create a card with a custom “scallop border” using smaller circles adhered behind cardstock. Upload your card to the TwoPeas gallery, select this week’s Finally Friday video, and your card will appear at the bottom of the Finally Friday page! :)

November 6th, 2009 at 9:06 amAdorable card! Thank you!!
November 6th, 2009 at 9:23 amLovely card !
Can you tell me the diameter of the big circle.
Thanks again for sharing.
Unfortunately, I don’t recall. I cut it using a Coluzzle template, so I didn’t actually measure it. You should be able to just “eye ball it” and get a similar size. :)
Hi Kristina, I likey your creative card today. Thankyou so much for taking time out of your day to bring us these awesome how-to vids.
November 6th, 2009 at 9:36 amGreat idea to make a scalloped edge this way. Love the muted hues that you’re used. Thanks again for sharing your ideas. Your cards are the nicest I’ve seen on any blog.

November 6th, 2009 at 4:56 pmKristina You’re Definitely My Cup of Tea! You did it again, another beautiful card.
November 6th, 2009 at 5:18 pmI never would have known that the scalloped edge to the circle was created with individual circles! Thanks for showing us. :)
November 6th, 2009 at 7:34 pmAfter seeing your cupcake card I had to buy the same set (I got so excited when you got so excited making it on your video) and also bought this tea set. I am not a tea drinker either but I love the look of cups and tea pots.
November 6th, 2009 at 8:01 pmAnd the punched circles to make a scallop….please, you are just too creative.
I love this card!! I just made my first purchase at “Two Peas” a few days ago. I’m excited to get it in the mail, but now I wish I would have bought this stamp set. :)
November 6th, 2009 at 9:51 pmThank you for making all of these beautiful cards and sharing them with us. I’m also happy to know that can use my small punch to make the circles for the scallops. Have a wonderful weekend.
