Let's Get In Shape.....

......if only it were THIS easy!  Today's Challenge finds me over at Flourishes, #253, make a shaped card (other than a square or rectangle). 

I found a 'shape' in my Cameo Studio, it looks like a square peg in a round hole.  :)  A perfect shape for this lovely teacup image from the Grab A Cup stamp set available from Flourishes.


I colored the image with Copic markers and then cut it out using Spellbinder's dies, Classic and Lacy Circles, all layered on a white doily.  I also colored some seam binding ribbon with a pink Copic marker too, works like magic!  Added some ribbon flowers, adhesive pearls, a touch of sparkle to the lemon with a Sakura clear star pen and some pink Stickles to the stamped flowers to finish the look.  I love the vintage feel and flavor to this card.  This reminds me of my Nana Amy's Bone China teacups, how I treasure them!

Thanks for popping in......now go stamp something!  ;)
