Tea for Two

Here's one of the cards that I managed to finish on Saturday


Don't know whether you can see the detail but I used a Calypso Coral  card base.
Embossed a piece if Naturals Ivory card stock using the Honeycomb embossing folder.
Then I similarly embossed and cut out the hexagons from a piece of Tea for two DSP.
These were then stuck on top of the Ivory card
I stamped out and punched a ticket using the "That's the Ticket stamp set
and matching punch with So Saffron ink and card stock.
The butterflies were stamped using Papillon Potpourri and punched with the matching punches.
I really enjoyed making this card (even though it was faffy cutting those hexagons!!)
