Well after a couple of attempts I finally got this video uploaded and working! I swear tech issues have been plaguing me in one form or another the last few weeks. There's always something new to fix and/or figure out! I got it accomplished though so now I can share my card and video with y'all:
Those who know me know I REALLY like to make coffee-themed cards. However I do actually enjoy tea a lot too - I just rarely (if ever) make cards that are tea-themed!! However Honey Bee has this great tea set (and there's a coordinating die set here too) and as I was flipping through my patterned paper collection I came across this Doodlebug paper with the stacks of tea cups and the wheels started turning.
I stamped all the images onto Distress Watercolor card stock with Versafine Onyx Black ink and did some masking to create my "scene" and to stack all the cups. I then watercolored them all with Tombow Dual Brush markers and a water brush. My color combo was also inspired by the patterned paper and I used the paper on the card base and popped up the watercolor panel with foam tape.
The die cut sentiment is from Honey Bee's Gift Card Slots die set - I love the 2 sentiment wafer dies that are included in the set!
To finish off the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the Honey Bee Stamps Perfect Blend stamp set. I then took another patterned paper from the Doodlebug Cream & Sugar paper pack and ran it through my Gemini with one of the Gift Card Slots dies. So now it holds and frames a gift card and the card is done!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
