Hello! If you don’t know, today is the start of two special blog events. The Coffee Lover’s Blog Hop (which totally includes tea and cocoa) and The 30 Day Coloring Challenge.
I have a very unique Christmas image to share with you today. This sweet image is called Christmas Tea. I think it is so pretty and I know several tea-drinkers who would love to receive it. And I have a coupon code for it (and more) below!

I added color first with markers and then I added some shading with colored pencils. Those pencils fit in the tiny spaces very easily. I then dressed up the image with some glitter glue and glitter pen.
The last step is fussy, but worth it. I cut a mask of the main image so that I could sponge some light blue distress ink around the image. I think that really makes the tea pot and the doily stand out more and just look more elegant.

Thank you for your visit today! Are you a coffee or tea drinker? I drink coffee every morning, but when the weather gets cold, I am very well known for drinking a cup of tea in the afternoon to warm up!

I would also like to enter Double Trouble In Stitches Challenge, where I think I did both the stitches and the caffeinated prompts.

So pretty, love the coloring!
That image is absolutely STUNNING Heidi! Love the wonderful Christmas paper and perfectly wrapped and tied ribbon around it!! Have a lovely weekend!
Very pretty!!
Very festive tea designed card.
Such a sweet tea set. I love the stitching around the oval too. I've never seen that before. I am a tea drinker, while I love the smell of coffee, I've never acquired the taste. Good luck in the hop.
Hi Heidi,
Love your card! I wanted to stop by and tell you that I didn't use the JC background stamp on my card - I used a little coffee cup from the stamp set and made my own background. Just thought you'd like to know as in your comment you mentioned wondering if it covers the whole card. I don't actually have that stamp so I am not sure if it covers the whole panel. It says in description that it is 4X6 inches. Hope this helps!
What a sweet little tea party you've created on this card! Delightful and so very pretty!
I love the pretty teaset with the blue sponging behind...
This is so pretty!
Hey girlie! Sorry I've gotten behind blog visiting and am catching up. This is such a pretty and dainty card scene. Very elegant and nicely done. I hear you on those tiny coloring areas! xox
How pretty! Love your design!
Pretty stamp. Love the sparkle steam.
such a pretty card! I drink coffee first thing and then again in the mid morning and maybe one more before 4! My coffees are a little different as I use raw cacao, almond milk, organic coffee and add some CBD oil and Turmeric and sometimes...some pumpkin spices!
Oh this image is so fabulous!
Very Elegant card!
Heidi, your card is very sweet and lovely. Love that tea set.
Lovely card. I need that stitched die. Thanks for sharing!
This is so beautiful! I love that dainty, elegant image and how you colored it. Creating the mask to sponge the background took a lot of patience but was well worth it! Well done!!
Great Coffee scene!
This is beautiful! :) I am a coffee drinker.
What a pretty stitched frame around your beautiful tea image...like how you colored it and chose nice backgrounds for your focal point. Glad you participated in the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop and glad you shared your card with us at Double Trouble too.
Such a sweet tea set, and I love the roses in the matching vase!
This is beautiful! The stamp and papers work so very well together, and I like the soft inking!
What a lovey card!
