Penny's Paper Crafty Challenges - Tea Trolley Dolly

Hello, I hope you're all well.  Today starts a new challenge at Penny's Paper Crafty Challenges and the sponsor this week is the awesome and fun Dr. Digi's House of Stamps.

For my design team project, I created an A2 sized, landscape orientated card using the fun Tea Trolley Dolly.  This lady reminds me of a Tea Trolley Attendant one might see on the British Comedy Are You Being Served.  If you haven't seen this series, you must check it out - it's hilarious and quite campy!

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and used Distress Oxide ink in the shade Seedless Preserves to highlight the edges.  The sentiment was one I had in my stash.


Please join us this week at Penny's Challenges, my design team sisters and I hope to inspire you with our Dr. Digi creations.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

You're Tea-rrific!

Today I'm sharing a card I created for a swap using an unbranded cup die, some tea party papers I had in my stash and some card candy.


In a previous post I mentioned I have been experimenting with different card sizes and I've been fond of the A-6 card size lately; this card is an A-6.  The A-6 measures 4.5" x 6.5" so not too much larger than the standard A-2 card size.  

The sentiment comes from the Brew Ha Ha stamp set from Cardz TV Stamps by Mary.  I love her stamp sets, the stamps are of high quality and she also hosts a challenge for the opportunity to win a set of her stamps.

I colored the die cut pieces with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and pieced back into the die cut.  I embossed the little panel and inked the edges with Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress Ink.  

I hope you've been inspired today with my swap project and will visit me again this coming week as I'll be sharing a few design team projects.  

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
