Caardvarks Shape Card Challenge


Caardvark has come up with some fun challenges in the past, but really loved this "Shape" card challenge~head on over to check out all of the talented entries on their site, they're awesome!
My card is actually a gift tag for a birthday gift. I stamped the tea cup (from Stampin Up) onto white card stock and used "Memories" Ink for shadow stamps on pink marble card stock for the inside of the card with the sentiment. I punched out a 'tag' with my large Marvy Punch and added a ribbon 'string' to look like a tea bag tag hanging out of the cup of tea.
This was a fun project and will definitely use it again (probably casing some of the fab ideas from you creative ladies out there ;)
Thanks for checking out my entry...hope you are enjoying your weekend!

  1. This is darling...or should I say 'Darjeeling'? LOL :)

    I love tea cups; I have a drawer full of tea theme stamps. I have even dressed as a tea bag several times for Halloween (get leaves from the yard, two trash bags one for my front side and one for my back, add string and decorate cardboard to look like your tag with 'Let me hold the bag').

    This is really pretty. Good luck with the challenge!
