Embossed + Watercolored Tea Time Thanks

Today, I’m sharing a card featuring the Avery Elle Tea Time set.

Ever since completing my card for the AEI♥U Challenge #27 – Embossing, I’ve been wanting to do more watercoloring. (For me, I am taking baby steps! Watercoloring continues to intimidate me!) I stamped and heat-embossed the teacups on watercolor paper and colored with Peerless watercolors. (I actually started with Distress Inks and then added the Peerless for more depth.) Once dry, I cut the teacups out with their corresponding dies. The background circle was cut from a panel that I watercolored with a variety of Peerless colors and Distress Inks. I heat-embossed the sentiment on Neenah cardstock and cut it out with the larger Finished Frames die. I realized after the card was completed that I had two teacups – so the sentiment should read “Cups of Thanks”!) The teacups and hearts are attached with dimensional adhesive.
