Today I had planned a fun day in my craft studio, creating more projects to inspire you. Unfortunately before I can do that we need to prepare for a big winter storm that is heading our way. We may not get a whole lot of snow but an ice storm is a distinct possibility. That means we could lose power at some point. So while I get myself organised, here’s a quick get well card with pretty roses for you.

TEA ROSES
I’ve no idea why there’s a group of roses called tea roses, but I do remember my Mum loved them. So I suppose I wasn’t surprised to see the beautiful roses in the Tea Together Stamp Set.
I began with a piece of Shimmery White Card and using Merry Merlot ink stamped the large rose image in the corner. Then using a damp Aqua Painter I painted the rose with Merry Merlot and Shaded Spruce ink.
For my sentiment I turned to the Well Said Stamp Set. I decided on ‘sending healing thoughts your way’ stamped beside my large rose using Shaded Spruce ink.
Next from the Tea Together Stamp Set I chose the rosebuds image. I stamped this in the bottom right corner on a layer of Whisper White Card with Merry Merlot ink. Then I stamped it onto the front of a Whisper White Medium Envelope. Once I’d painted the rosebuds with Merry Merlot and Shaded Spruce ink I set everything aside to dry.
SIMPLE BACKGROUND
I wanted the background for my card to be really simple, but not stark. So I used some Stampin’ Sponge to lightly add some Pool Party ink over a layer of Whisper White Card. Then I wrapped a length of Very Vanilla 1/2″ Lace Trim around the card and secured it on the back with Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Next, I cut and scored a piece of Merry Merlot Card using my Stampin’ Trimmer. I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease with a Bone Folder to create a card base. Then I attached the background layer to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (Tombow).

FINAL ASSEMBLY
Now that the painted pieces were dry I fixed the rosebud layer inside the card base with liquid glue.
Then I used liquid glue to attach the sentiment to a layer of Merry Merlot Card. Once the layered sentiment was attached to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals I was done.

COORDINATING DIES
Both stamp sets used on today’s project have dies that coordinate with them although I didn’t use the dies today. The Well Written Framelits Dies coordinate with the Well Said Stamp Set. Buying these two items using the bundle item number will save you 10% off the cost of buying them separately. I’ve included a link to the Well Said/Well Written bundle in case you wanted to look at this.
You can see a project I’ve made using the stamp set and dies together in my blog post Well Written Well Said.
The Tea Together Stamp Set does not come as part of a bundle, because you can’t currently buy the Tea Time Framelits Dies. If you want these dies now you can choose them for FREE, with a $120 order (before shipping and taxes). This offer is only available during the Sale-A-Bration promotion which ends on March 31st. The dies will then be made available for purchase once the Stampin’ Up! 2019/2020 Annual Catalogue is launched on June 3rd.
Product List
This is really lovely, Tracy! The funny thing is, I was so focused on the beautiful Teapot, I’d almost forgotten about the roses; love this set at lot! Hope you weather the oncoming storm alright, and hopefully, it might not be quite as bad as anticipated. Take care and be safe.
Thank you Geraldine. You’re right the teapot and cup draw the eye and I think a lot of people miss the other images. I think I’ll have some fun with this set.
