My Turn As Hostess

Well, it's Tea Party time again, and this week I'm the hostess.  As an invitation, I sent each of the Cookies this sketch:

Since the "Text" box is supposed to be primarily for text, the real challenge comes in finding a way to include the stamped image or images... I might add that the brick pattern, ugly as it is, denotes the use of any print paper...

I actually had four cards in progress, but only managed to complete two of them:

Techniques/supplies used on both cards were pretty basic... Ink, heat embossing, layering, a corner rounding punch, brads, a little glitter glue, and some dimensional glaze...

smART rubber used:
Card #1
WD-43 Life's Donation
FL-09 Darling Duo
Card #2
ABC-Dog Daze
WD-163 Woof

If you'd like to see some other ideas using this sketch, make sure to visit the Cookies -- Dina Kowal, Trish D'Antonio, Donna Duquette, Heidi Kingery, and Susan Liles.

Or, if you, yourself happen to have an urge for tea, just give the sketch a go, and send me a link.  The Cookies and I would love to see what you've created.

I love both of your cards. I almost played along with your Tea Party, but I really wanted to use my new smARTworks stamps and they didn't quite fit the sketch.

Ooh, love the little doggy and the way you used him as the third element. The purple one is sooo pretty; I really like the way you used the flower on that one.

Thanks for the great sketch!

So cute! Love the doggy one and how the heart brads match the doggy heart! Thanks for hosting!

Ooooh! I love them both, but that doggie is just soooo cute! I especially like the way his collar and tag just pop against that neutral color scheme.
