Time for Tea

Good morning everyone. Today I would like to share a card which I have made with some of my new goodies that I purchased from Ally Pally at the weekend.
I normally go for 8x8 size cards, but I thought I would make a small card today (14.5x14.5) using a topper from The Hobby House - Tea Time by Mo Manning:).  I really am going all out today as again I don't normally do toppers, but they are just perfect for those days when I just don't have time to colour my image....... I'm thinking they are going to be very useful. I am loving these images so I can definitely say that the stamps are going to be on my newest NEED list :).

• I have used purple shimmer card to make the card base
• Matt and layered the image with co-ordinating die cut shapes and frames (The Hobby House)and then onto co-ordinating card. Before putting together I have used shabby pink embossing enamel around the edges.
• The roses, pearls, and brads are from The Hobby House.
• Silk flower in the centre of the cluster is from Prima.
• Lace and ribbon is from my stash.
• The heart charm - Mei Flower
• I have then finished of the card using stickles.

Here are a few more pictures to show you the detail a little better -
