Tea Party Table Scape

Every year I sponsor a table at the annual Mothers Day Tea party. This year I did a garden theme.

Mother's Day Card Swap

Sorry it has been so long since my last post..... Life has been crazy.... My youngest son graduated from High School and my mother had been sick... My son is ready to go off to college and my mother is great...

I made this card for Mothers day swap at swapyourheartout.blogspot.com. The picture is my mom's high school graduation picture.

Thanks for stopping by!

Tea Party Pictures

I hosted three tables at a senior tea party today.  My friend Daphne Hallman (aka Dazzling Daphne) was kind enough to teach me the art of creating a table scape.  I learned it is all about the layers.  I created handmade gifts for each place setting and everything turned out really nice.

Today I was approached by several people asking about where I got my Jewelry (Beautiful Necklace).  I am amazed at how much Jewelry can change an outfit.  If you are interested in getting your wardrobe "blinged out" like I did my tables get in touch with Dazzling Daphne.

Thanks again Daphne for helping to make my tables extra special.

Happy Mother's Day!

Tea Party Sneak Peak

 The Senior Tea Party is today and here is a sneak peak of a few items i made for each place setting.  I will post additional pictures this weekend of the finished tables.

 My friend andrea helped me come up with this idea for mint holders.  This is how I made them.



1. My husband cut PVC pipe 1 3/4"
2. I covered with decorative paper3. I glued a plastic wine cup (without the base) onto  PVC.  Best Glue E-6000
4.  I tied a Tulle Knot around the base of the cup
5.  I filled with bible verse mints
I also made a second version using the paper flowers.
Thanks Andrea!




For the dessert plates I glued a poem onto a doily.  My friend Linda helped me find the poem and edit it on the computer. My Friend Rona cut pink circles with my gypsy and glued onto a paper doily.
Thanks so much Linda and Rona!

The Poem says:
Just put the kettle on to boil and have a cup of tea, Then sit down in your favorite chair and cozy up with me!  Today you don't need sugar, I really want to say, You sweeten everything you touch, Have a Happy Mothers Day!

I will post pictures of the tea party soon!
Happy Mothers Day!

Mother's Day Card

This is a mothers day card I made for my mom. I stamped the Bingo, love, bird (SU), Irish blessing, ticket and happy mothers day (SU) onto card stock. I cut and adhered to the card. I distressed edges with Tim Holtz (my favorite). I cut the flower from my Cricut (walk in my garden). On the back of the ticket it says "good for one day of bingo on me" I hope she likes it.
