I haven't used twine for a long time and thought some twine and sequins would add something to this plain creation.  I do like it, something about the white against the dark blue background.  It's another Cas-ual Fridays stamp and die cut for your pleasure and be sure to join the Die Cut Divas for the May challenge to "Make it a Beverage".

One more green and white tea pot for you.  The green really shows up against the brown  in real life.  A rather clean card, but it fits what I like.

I used a stamp from Graciellie Designs called  Coffee and Love Digital Stamp Set.  I've had this background for years and just never finished a card with it.  It really is as bright and beautiful as it looks here.

Peace, Love & Serendipi-Tea

Be sure to visit Die Cut Divas May challenge. 

Yes, More Tea for Me!  I'm a total Tea drinker and had such fun with the stamped die-cuts my friend Cindy sent.  Cindy may have had a different purpose for this strip of paper than for what I used it for.  As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted it on a dark color (black) so it would show up and WOW, it shows up.  I used two more sentiments in the pack and a  matching tea cup.  I love how these two sentiments go so well with each other.

There is no specific theme other than your project needs to have a caffeinated design, which includes hot apple cider + cocoa.

The green paper had a cut-out for a tea pot - perfect for a little color and I went to three of my now favorite Copic colors, R81, R83 & R85.   I glued the panel to a plain white card.
