Nice Cuppa Tip, by Kimberly



Quick Tip Tuesday

Recently I created a few swaps using the A Nice Cuppa stamp set.

When I’m creating swaps I need the creative process to be fast or else I have the case of the “I’m bored” syndrome that comes on quickly.

When I was creating this project I fell in love with the lemon wedge. I wanted to be able to place the lemon wedge onto the cup, but the thought of cutting these out was daunting.
Then, I had a moment where my brain was working hard and this little Tuesday Tip was born…

Use the 1-1/4″ Circle Punch to cut your lemon wedge.  Once it’s punched then you can cut straight across the edge for a nice easy cut. BAM! The creative process doesn’t get stuck on the fussy cutting.

Here is the card I created using this quick tip.

This bright and cheerful card is bound to add a bit of cheer to someones day, don’t you think?

While this card has lots of fun layers the creative process is made easy with the quick tip and the framelits for the tea cup.

Tips & Tricks  

  • Tea Lace Doilies are perfect to embellish a project using this stamp set.  You can see in the photo I have used a doily twice.  One is large in the background, the other is a small piece tucked under the ribbon for added texture for the card.
  • Easily grab ribbons together and staple to a piece of your card front to keep the ribbons from moving around.

This tea set lends itself to be a big seller because of the versatility.  Between Tea and Coffee, I think I can cover myself for a long time with this set and lots of fun gift ideas.
SAVE MONEY! This stamp set can be purchased as a bundle which means you SAVE money.  15% savings when you purchase the bundle.  That’s a GREAT deal.
