Happy Birthday Alana!


Today is a dear friend & tea-lover's birthday! When you are born around Christmas I'm sure it sometimes just gets mixed in, but this is a very special lady, so I always make sure to separate it in my mind & heart and, of course, in her gifts and card. This is this year's special birthday card.

I took some inspiration from Artistic Avenger in terms of coming up with the idea for what to use to make the tea bag. It's a piece of ivory cardstock, with the punchouts from the eyelet border punch and a heart punchout and then a piece of vellum which is folded around:)

Recipe (all SU):
Cardstock - natural ivory, early espresso, cherry cobbler, old olive
DSP - jolly holiday
Stamps - take a sip, occasional quotes, tiny tags, very vintage
Ink - cherry cobbler, old olive, early espresso, versamark
Buttons - button latte
Ribbon - victoria lace
