Cup of Tea Card Tutorial

If you like tea, you’ll love creating tea-themed projects. The Cup of Tea Bundle has stamps and coordinating dies for making cards and scrapbook pages.

The Cup of Tea Bundle includes the Cup of Tea Stamp Set and the Teacup Dies. Also available in French.

CUP OF TEA PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET
Create the perfect paper cup of tea with the Cup of Tea Stamp Set, designed for tea lovers. Start by stamping a teacup, then stamp a slice of lemon and a tea bag, and finish off with a sentiment that says what you want to say. You can say thank you. Remind someone that it’s time to get together. Or that you miss them. Not in the mood for tea? You can use the botanical images and sentiments for other projects, too.

TEACUP DIES
The Teacup Dies give you fun tools for making cards for your tea-loving friends. Cut out a teacup, then accent it with a die-cut, segmented lemon slice and a tiny teabag. Add some die-cut flowers, hearts, and herbs, and you’ve created a tea-themed scene will delight anyone. You’ll also love how most of these dies pull double duty. The teabag also doubles as a tag, and the flowers, hearts, and herb plants go with just about anything.
