A tough one!

Phew, this sketch from Skipping Stones Design was a tough one! What do you do with all the little squares around the perimeter??? Well, once I combined it with the Stampin Sisters In Christ #87 challenge to use a tea/coffee cup or pot, I had an idea. And I think I acutally like it. The dp is DCWV, I used a labels 4 die cut in half for the blocks and I used two old SU! stamps: the tea cup (got it as a doorprize a loooong time ago at an SU! party) and the sentiment is from Year Round Cheer (or something like that) which I have never really used because of it's size and it can be a little cheesy. I used real red, night of navy and creamy caramel inks all from SU!

    How pretty. I love how the steam coming up from the cups forms a heart. Thanks for sharing this with the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge.
