Sending Warm Thoughts

I just love this template! It is the perfect time of year to make a little tea holder! This card is for a makeup challenge, Technique Lovers Challenge 143. I found it on mirkwooddesigns after seeing it in the Jan. Cards magazine. Instead of cutting out the handle, I used my large oval punch. I stuck some green tea bags in it for the photo. I stamped the flower from the Embrace Life set in chocolate on cameo coral & then colored it in with a variety of prismacolor pencils. I added a cameo coral heart in the center with a brad from my pewter hodgepodge set. A bit of fruit punch stickle was added too! The little hearts on the bottom are from the short & sweet set. I colored them in with the prismacolor pencils & then added a bit of white from my gel pen. I also used my chocolate marker & sponge dauber around the edges of the card. The dp is from stella ruby BasicGrey pad. Isn't that paper gorgeous??
