The Sweet Days of Summer at The Shabby Tea Room!

Hi there and Happy Monday! The Shabby Tea Room Challenge is new today! Don't you just love the shades of peach, pink and green in this gorgeous inspiration photo?! I know I do! Well, you get to use these beautiful colors on your card or project along with a handmade flower! Our theme is called The Sweet Days of Summer! Our wonderful sponsor this week is Paper Pretties!


I just love this color combination and I knew I had the perfect Graphic 45 papers to go with it! I colored this pretty Roses image with Copics, fussy cut all around it and mounted it on this Spellbinders shape. I also hand cut the green border shape since I thought the next size Nestie was too large. I followed the sketch for the SCS August Fan Club monthly theme and added some lace, pearls, rolled roses created with a MFT die and a pearl flourish. My sentiment is from Rubbernecker Stamps and I stamped the ends of the sentiment paper with one of the layers of the birthday cake in the Flourishes Let Them Eat Cake set!

I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge!

Good Morning! I had so much fun at the stamp show in York, PA yesterday and I got to meet some of the very talented stampers that I follow on their blogs! It was great meeting Teresa (Enjoy the VA Sunshine, Wanda (Cullen-ary Creations) and Denise (The Paper Landscaper)!!! I just couldn't wait to play with some of the loot I brought home too.

I got this great dress stamp from Rubbernecker and I just love these Prima flowers I picked up too! The Colour Q is one of my favorite challenges and I couldn't wait to get this stamp inky with these colors! Aren't they great together! I knew I had the perfect WRMK paper for it too! The sentiment is from Verve and it's one of my faves too! I'll give this card to my daughter one day...just because! Gotta go to work today...

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget about my Follow Me blog candy...you can find it HERE...until October 17th! If I get to 100 followers by then, I'll add another bonus candy!
