Tea Cup Card

I made this little tea bag one day to go with a stamp that I had, but ended up not liking them together, so I decided to create a cup with punches.  I'm starting to really enjoy punch art (if you haven't been able to tell for those of you that follow me). :)



Card Stock:  Night of Navy, Very Vanilla, Melon Mambo, and Crumb Cake
Ink:  Night of Navy and Chocolate Chip
Folder:  Perfect Polka Dots
Punches:  Large Scallop Circle, 1 3/8" Circle, Small Heart, 3/4" Circle, 1/2" Circle Punch
Stamp Set:  Retired

Base is Night of Navy, cut with the Scallop Square Die
1st Layer:  Very Vanilla 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"; run through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots folder
2nd Layer:  Melon Mambo 3 1/2" x 1/2"; "run through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots folder
Scallop Circle - Punch with Night of Navy
Tea Cup:  Melon Mambo (I cut a 3" square and run through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots folder before punching); Punch 1 - 1 3/8" Circle (cut off the top), cut a 3/4" x 3/4" square for base of tea cup, for the handle - I punched a 1/2" circle, then punched a 3/4" circle around that.
Heart:  Very Vanilla using the Small Heart Punch
Tea Bag:  I cut a 1/2" square from Crumb Cake, angled the top corners, sponged the bottom with Chocolate Chip ink, punched a very small hole in the top and ran a piece of linen thread through it and added a very small square piece of Whisper White card stock to the top for the tag. 

I finished by using my white gel pen to add a small dot in each scallop
