Another Tea Party

Tea Party1

If you haven't noticed I am having a tea of a time here.  I don't feel like I've been here a whole four months… maybe because I have always looked at time as an enemy.  Enemy?  Time?  My card-making days have always been numbered.

I have to ship my stamping supplies home at least two weeks before heading out, so I can have them waiting for me upon my return.  I have seven weeks left and I'm having withdraw because I am left with about four weeks to stamp!  Oh dear.

Yikes!  I better get to stampin…….

Mojo309SketchMojo Monday #309 is the sketch of the day for me.  I always welcome a challenge and you should too. =)

Tea Party2

I originally purchased the Tea Party stamp set only because it reminded me of an antique store.  I love going to antique stores and own several pieces, but I love the museum feeling I get when I see old furniture, clothes, and jewelry.

At the local bazaar there is a vendor who sells the prettiest tea sets I've ever seen.  I finally broke down last week and bought one.  I'm not one to use a tea set, but it sure does look pretty.

I would love to give one away as blog candy, but not sure if I'd generate any takers.  If this is something you'd be interested in leave a comment below.  If there is enough interest… I just might give one away.

Who can actually say they own a six cup tea set from Kyrgyzstan?

Tea 1-3 Tea 1-4 Tea 2-2

The tea sets are available in a variety of colors, but I picked this one because it reminded me of our Flower Shop stamp set and the Pansy Paper Punch.

My Cup of Tea

Tea

I love black and white!  It takes me back to a time when people actually took the time to relax.  I don't know why, but who remembers the time before smart phones and social media?  Who now a days sits down and has a cup of tea?

Even if you go to Starbucks, you will see people in groups or by themselves and the first thing you notice are the cell phones… looking up email, checking in on Facebook, or taking selfies… LoL.

I know all of this has nothing to do with the stamp set, but it's just what it makes me think.  Are there any rubber stamps that lead you to think something that has nothing to do with the image? 

Tea

I'm an old-fashioned kind of girl and the Tea Party stamp set is perfect for letting someone know you care about them.  It's perfect for your significant other, or a friend.
