Some snippet makes

I have been having a major sort out. My snippets are now all together, lots of my unmounted stamps are in A5 folders and I'm just waiting on a delivery of eze-mount before I continue. I had some lovely images I had coloured in before Christmas and found the perfect papers to complement them amongst my snippets.
First another Hobby art scene coloured with aqua markers and distress inks. Not sure where the papers are from (other than my snippet drawer!)

Next were some stamps I got free on the front of a magazine (Quick cards made easy). I stamped and coloured these on Christmas eve, but hadn't done anything with them. They go pretty well with the snippets of Pink Petticoat papers I found.

These remind me of one of my Christmas presents - a gift box of tea.

Aren't the boxes so pretty?
I'm entering all three of my cards into Pixie's Crafty Snippets Challenge, who has taken over the keys from the lovely Jules. Hey, Di - do you think those boxes would count as snippets?! Thanks for looking. I'm off to drink some afternoon tea!

Waltzing Mouse 2nd Birthday tea party!

Waltzing Mouse are having a tea party to celebrate their second Birthday and are asking us to download a free template for a 'tea-bag baggie' and decorate it. I received my latest purchases from Waltzing mouse last week and they were tea themed too, so I set to work.

I used Broken china and tea dye distress inks (tee, hee!)The two main stamps are from Waltzing Mouse and the background is from Hero arts. The small stamp on the cup is from the Chocolate Baroque teeny meadow set.

I had to make a card to go with it too...

I used more distress inks and some backing paper from my Artylicious essence of Nature cd. I Love this tea cup! There is a fab prize on offer, but not for much longer! so pop over to the Waltzing Mouse Blog for more details. Thanks for looking!
