Tea and Pearls..

Well, good morning to ya! Hope you are having a sparkly week so far? 
Good - me too! 
Today The Crafty Pad are sharing mine and my Teamie's Pauline's inspirational samples. I decided to create a girly Tea Party...


Of course, the invite arrives on a pretty china plate all rolled up into a scroll...


I printed the 'Spotty tea set and Sentiment' onto vellum, which I tinted with a used tea bag to give an aged look. I then softly coloured in the images using pastel pink and cocoa Promarkers.


I set the scene using pink and brown papers, with doilies, lace, white china and pearls...


To finish it off I printed off the 'Tea is best when served for two' ticket and added it to a bit of twine and dangled it from the teapot.

So, put on your best dress and pretty pearls, we're having a Tea Party for all the girls!

You're all invited, the kettle's on - see you there ;)
