I recently won some fabulous Waltzingmouse Stamps and this sentiment (from Frame It) makes me think of all my fabulous New Zealand friends, who would ask if you "fancy a cuppa" within minutes of anyone walking in their door (winter or summer). So yes, my fabulous friends, "I'll put the jug on," which is how the rest of the conversation would go. The other fun bit about this card is that I asked my youngest son what he thought the card said (he's 3 1/2, so it's not like can read), and he said with a big grin "I love you." Too precious. I've used the current Card Patterns sketch.
Materials: Waltzingmouse Stamps sentiment, PTI Warm Happiness stamp and die, Cosmo Cricket Circa 1934, PTI kraft card stock, May Arts ribbon, Versafine black ink, Tim Holtz Distress ink antique linen

What a nice sketch and your card is a fabulous take on it, Erin! Not much for coffee or tea(can not have either) but I do love cards made using them. I am playing hooky from the lawn and blogging, it will be hot when I get to it for sure. Have a fun day!
Oh, that's sweet, Erin (card and story). Have fun using your newly won stamps!
