Chai (tea) time !!!

Hello everyone!
Finally I am able to enter my creation for SUMMER COFFEE LOVERS BLOG HOP! The very talented ladies Amy and Chaitali are hosting this amazing contest!!!!

What an amazing and super array of sponsors!!!!!

Here is my creation with summer theme.....

 I am a tea lover and my morning starts with a cup of Indian Masala tea:)  So, I made this very special card for a tea lover just like me!
I chose a floral PP and  did  third generation stamping in red colour for wood panel look. Then  I cut it into four panels and distressed  the edges. And adhered all the panels on a snippet of green colored wooden paper and then brown CS base. Then I added doilies and  die cut stripes. At the focal point I adhered a vellum gift holder and sprayed some golden splatters very lightly. I stamped the tea cup and a little tea bag on a watercolor sheet, colored with distress inks, Added some glossy accents and few sequins on a cup for more shine. I attached the cup with a green paper clip using pop dot. The sentiment was stamped in Black Archival ink. 

 
I made my own hand made Gerbera flowers using octagon die cuts, distressed them and coated a thin layer of  PVC glue mixed with diamond dust powder in water to stiffen them and give them some shine. To complete them I added brads for that elegant look!

I added a golden colored thread under the flowers and embellished with a beautiful butterfly sticker ! To top it off I put a Enjoy Sentiment sticker.
Now for the gift holder part -  I put a tea bag in the holder with a cute little spoon for a nice cup of tea to be enjoyed while sitting in their garden while looking at my card! Hehehe !!!
Hope you enjoyed this card as much as I did making it !
