The card base is a beautiful turquoise blue called Bermuda Bay. It’s cut to 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″ on the long side. Just a tip I learned. Make sure you use your bone folder and burnish the fold well so it doesn’t tear the fold.
I cut a piece of patterned turquoise paper from The Bees Knees 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ and glued it flat to the card base. I made several other layers with Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and patterned paper from The Bees Knees. The measurements are:
Layer 1 (bottom center) – 2 1/2″ x 4″, 2 3/8″ x 3 7/8″
Layer 2 (left center) – 2 1/2″ x 5″, 2 3/8″ x 4 7/8″
Layer 3 (right center) – 3/4″ x 4 3/8″, 7/8″ x 4 1/2″
Layer 1 is glued flat to the card base and background. Laser 2 is popped up with foam tape. Layer 3 is glued flat to the card base. The teacups are popped up with foam tape and stacked on top of one another leaning a little bit like they would do naturally.
The sentiment is one of several sweet sentiments from this new set. I chose ‘But First Tea’. I’ve just started drinking tea lately, having given up coffee. Delicious!.
And of course I added some glittery turquoise dots. You know I’m just a glittery girl.
