'Go Native' with the Belles!!

Well I can't believe we're on to the final week of the Unstampabelles challenge. Where do the days go?!!!

Susan wants you to 'Go Native' and show us what it means to be a native of your country or your adopted country. The twist is that it must be a square card.

There is a wee prize for the winner kindly donated by Susan.

 
                            It's a lovely embossing folder and a packet of sequins.....very pretty.

                      This is my inspiration for you. Can you guess why I've used this image?

 
Well in the UK where I originate from 'Everything Stops For Tea'!! No matter who you visit their first words ....after saying 'Hello' of course.....are more often than not 'I'll put the kettle on and make us some tea!!' Tea is a great healer for any situation and can be enjoyed with friends. Especially if it's accompanied with cake or scones or yummy biscuits!!
 
I created a square card using white card stock from my stash and covered it with some freebie paper from a magazine. The paper pack is LOTV Nitwits Collection. and it has some pretty cups, teapots and cakes scattered across it (sorry it doesn't show up very well) I then browsed the images on the CD Greeting Card Factory and found the teapots. I edged the topper with sparkly pink peel offs. The sentiment was in my stash. I trimmed it to size and layered on the DP.
 
'Life is like a
teapot,
to be filled to the brim
and enjoyed with friends'
 
I hope I've inspired you to take part in the challenge. Just remember.....NO STAMPS PLEASE....we are UN stampabelles. The link to the Unstampabelles blog is in the sidebar.
 
Have fun and I look forward to visiting you soon.

  1. Gorgeous as always - yes, I always have a cuppa going but my tipple is coffee! Put off tea by the pot of stewed tea always on the hob at the farm growing up! I like that sparkly side trim - yummy.
