I used to have a book called "A Cup of Christmas Tea",
a heartwarming story by Tom Hegg.
I decided to base my card on the book cover.
I heat embossed the Altenew tea cut in gold, paper pieced it and popped it up with foam on some BoBunny polka dot paper. The sentiment is a mix of several from the same Altenew set and one from Happy Little Stampers all embossed in gold. To finish the card, I added a small gold border before placing it on a white card base (hard to see in the photo).The Design Team has cards to inspire you. I hope you'll take a look and then make a card for our gallery.

How pretty, Bobby ... such precise and perfect paper piecing ... and a fabulous take on the cover. Hadn't heard of this book, though will check it out, thank you! Hugs, Anita :)
What great paper piecing, Bobby and that gorgeous teacup reminds me of one my Granny had! Such a gorgeous non-traditional festive card.
