Feminine Birthday Card with Teapot
Hello Paper Crafters!! This isn’t typically my type of stamp set, but it brought back my childhood memories of tea parties with my siblings and tea parties with my children. I also thought it was very elegant and perfect for feminine cards. For inspiration I went to Pinterest. As I was scrolling I came across a card designed by Heejung Hunsberger at www.hmadeboutique.com. I really liked it and decided to CASE it. What is CASING you ask? It’s when you take a card designed by someone else and use it as inspiration for your own card design. What I loved about this card was the embossing (my favorite part), the frame and the 3-dimensionality. If you would like to learn more about 3-dimensionality, I found this great site called www.sophia.org. I really enjoyed making this card and am very pleased with how my feminine birthday card with teapot turned out.
