Happy Monday, peeps! I trust you had a good weekend! I have a confession! The card I have for you today was supposed to be for yesterday's Paper Players challenge.....but I forgot that it was supposed to be clean-and-simple, and although I love this card, I didn't really feel like it met Joanne's criteria!!! So I saved it for today:
I used the same DSP, Just Add Color Specialty, this time it was the teapot paper! I used the Sunday Stamps Summer Petals color palette:
and using inks and an aquapainter, I colored in the images! Isn't this one cute?
And I very carefully ('cuz it's a really tiny stamp) used the "berries" from Carols of Christmas for the wallpaper design behind my array of teapots:
I used the new Quilt Top embossing folder for the background, and I used a sentiment from Beautiful Bouquet and stamped it on a stitched tag from Pretty Pink Posh:
Dana had a big party for Cassidy on Saturday--the weather was perfect, the kids had a load of fun and I got to meet some of Wayne's family and catch up with some of my own! Of course there was cake:
and even though I am not a big fan of bright artificial colors on my cake, I have to admit that these were pretty amazing! A local gal that waitressed with Dana bakes these! Cassidy was thrilled with them, of course:
And although she didn't get all seven candles blown out in one shot, she gave it a good try!

A colouring 'two for two' LeAnne - I love this cheery tea set and all the additional details, especially the wallpaper - genius! I think I need some tips from you for using an aqua painter with this paper - that's where I started with my card yesterday and the leaf pattern paper, but I got into a total mess so resorted back to markers. Cassidy looks like she had a fabulous day - love that cake!!
Very pretty. Love your colorful teapots. Great job stamping that background with that tiny stamp.
Looks like Cassidy had a great time at her birthday party, love the cake. Thanks for sharing the photos.
Gorgeous! Cassidy certainly looks like she is having a wonderful time. ~chris

Love the coloring on your card AND on the cake/cupcakes! I think those might be my inspiration for the Come and Get It Challenge for Sunday. Have a great and blessed week!
Such a beautiful card, LeAnne! WOWzers, that embossing folder sure does add so much to a card and I love the scene you created with the tea cup & kettles! Brilliant how you made wallpaper behind it!
