Today I'm playing along with a challenge I recently discovered called Addicted to CAS. They provided the code word "plaid." I love plaid so I turned a tea cup into a flower vase.
It doesn't show well in the photo but I do have a layer of Whisper White on Whisper White. I used a Ticket Corner Punch on the layer. The flower is from the You've Got This stamp set. I stamped it onto Whisper White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink then, colored with yellow, green and brown Copic Sketch Markers. (I need to practice some more. It's been a while since I've done any coloring.) I fussy cut it out and attached it using Dimensionals.
The tea cup is cut from patterned paper from the Generations Paper Pad from Simple Stories. It's been in my stash and rarely used but I think the plaid made for an interesting tea cup. On top of the cup I added a heart that I cut out using Chocolate Chip cardstock. Both the cup and the heart were cut using the Cups & Kettle Framelits Dies. It's attached using Dimensionals. The sentiment is from the March Paper Pumpkin Kit and stamped in Chocolate Chip ink. A few pearls from my stash and the card was all done.
The inspiration for my card came from the Addicted to CAS Challenge. For all the challenge details, click the image below.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Ksenija! Plaid is a favorite of mine, especially flannel. I used to have a shirt with the same plaid design.
DeleteWhat a great way to use the plaid word for that cup. Lovely card. Thanks for joining us at ATCAS.
