Alter It Thursday: Tea Box

I had a great time altering this empty Tea Box a friend of mine gave me.  Not sure what I will use this for, but right now it looks so pretty on my craft table.  You can see the original box below before I covered with English Garden Designer Series Paper.  Hope this inspires you!

Rose Garden Thinlit Leaves in Bloom

This card reminds me of spring. The leaves were made using the Rose Garden Thinlits dies and the flowers were made using the Bloomin Hearts Thinlits dies in Calypso Coral and Pool Party.  Love the way the stripped Brights Paper Pack paper in Mossy Meadow looks on the background. 

Rose Wonder / Rose Garden Beautiful Watercolor

How pretty is this rose.  I cut out the rose in Blushing Bride using the Stampin' Up! Rose Wonder Thinlit from the new Occasions Catalog.  I layered the background of the rose with white card stock and then colored in the white areas using a Blushing Bride ink pad and a watercolor pen.

A Rose in Tip Top Taupe

How beautiful is this Wedding Wishes card..  This card would work in any color... but I love the simplicity of the Tip Top Taupe and the elegant lacey ribbon.

Stampin With Scraps: Black & White

Sharing a fun way to use your scraps to create this really cute card. I used Everyday Chic Designer Series Paper scraps.

 

Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper Rose

I cut out this rose from one of the beautiful pages from the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper pack.  The sheet is full of these roses so image how many cards you can get from one sheet.
