Have A Cup of Tea Layout

Today's layout was made for a Girl Scout outing we took to a special tea room.  The Fancy Pants Time for Spring collection has the cutest tea pot paper and it inspired me to make this layout.

I found the tea pot, cup and "Have a Cup" images on the Cricut Love You A Latte cartridge (can be found at cricut.com and walmart.com).  The swirls on the cup above are actually from the sheet of die cuts that come with the Fancy Pants Time for Spring collection.
I loved the blue swirly paper for the tea pot and the tea cup.  This paper pack is fantastic!

The "Have a Cup" actually is a layered image but I decided to use just the word part to create a long title.  I made sure the letters were about 1" tall.

Sketch is from Alison Davis and modified.  All paper is by Fancy Pants.  Cardstock by CTMH and Bo Bunny. Cricut Cartridge is Love You A Latte.


This week, we are giving away two brand new collections from Fancy Pants, our newest sponsor!  Two people will win!


From the Fancy Pants Design Team






Sheet of Die Cuts

How can you win?

1) Go to the Fancy Pants site HERE and look at their paper collections.  Leave a comment below letting us know your favorite collection.

Wow...these layouts are gorgeous!!! Love the cute little teapot. After looking around at the "Fancy Pants" site it is hard to pick just one because they are all beautiful!!! I just got married on June 23, 2012 and I am putting together a wedding scrap book so the one that jumps out at me the most is the "Love Birds" collection!

Like the Tea layout. When my daughter was younger she attended a Tea Party. The place had dress up accessories for them to wear such as fancy gloves, hats & such. I do not remember going to a Tea Party when I was younger. Like the Winter Wonderland and many of the other paper collections.

I'm in awe of the beautiful layout. You used my favorite cartridge and those Fancy Pants papers are gorgeous. It's funny because I was just at their website yesterday looking at that fabulous Country Boutique collection and drooling over out.

Cheryl W said...

Wonderful layout! I love anything associated with teapots (I collect them). Fancy Pants has some gorgeous papers and I especially like their "Be You" collection. Frankly, though, wish I had them all. :)

Sage said...

it was hard to choose a favorite, but Childish Things is a great one for layouts of my grdgts these days! A friend and I were playing with Love You A Latte yesterday at a crop, we love that cart! thx for the chance

Tami Barber said...

How do you pick just one favorite from Fancy Pants! They are all amazing. But since I have to choose, I say Lilac House. Thanks so much for turning me on to this web site. I can't wait to go shopping!

I like Hopscotch and Time for Spring. Super cute papers!

Momof4inArlington said...

Glorious papers! They definitely add excitement to the layout, and will be a perfect compliment to the girls in the photos, yet to be placed. I can see why you were inspired by these papers!
As for my favorite...tough call. They all appeal to me, for entirely different reasons. To illustrate this, the two at the top of my list are polar opposites: Summer Soul and Winterland. Thanks so much for the opportunity to win!

Sue D said...

great layout! I like the Hopscotch collection.

kim james said...

How cute.

Jen said...

That is a hard choice to just pick two:) great lines! Childish and Time Spring are two that I really like. So fun that you are now partnering up!

I love the teapot and really like the blue swirl paper. I visited the Fancy Pants web site, I couldn't decide which paper I liked the best. I have an addiction to buying paper, my motto is you can never have enough variety of paper for occasions that pop up.
Thanks for the idea
