EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop aToday I am playing around with a stack of tea cups from Altenew for this challenge.  Below is a little pictorial tutorial to share how I created this card.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop dStep One:
I started by stamping out three cups and a saucer onto some cardstock using copic friendly ink.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop eStep Two:
Stamp the additional decor onto the stamps to make each cup individual.

Step Three:
Die cut the images.  I like to die cut before I color because I have been known to mess up and I don’t like to waste the ink or time coloring first knowing I could ruin the image.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop hStep Four:
Color the images in with your alcohol markers.  I used my copics and tried to keep all the colors really light and elegant.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop iStep Five:
Using a craft knife, trim an opening in two of the glasses so that you can stack the cups in each other.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop cStep Six:
Adhere some printed paper to an A2 card frame.  I used Elizabeth Craft Designs Butterfly Dreams paper pack.  Adhere the tea cups onto of the printed paper.

EK Gorman, Connie Can Crop Tea Hop bStep Seven:
Finally, stamp a sentiment onto your card using black ink.

 Thanks for checking out my project today.
