For my card today I used the gorgeous NEW a´la modes, You're My Cup of Tea....gosh, I just LOVE her to bits...how cute is she?!....and I love that all the MFT Stamps are SO versatile. I have been trying to make as many Christmas cards as I can and she is perfect for Christmas cards for my tea totaling friends. I made my card with BasicGrey Aspen Frost 6x6 paper....my fave Christmas pad this year. I used MFT Red Hot, Jellybean Green and Sweet Tooth Heavyweight Card Stock for matting.  I coloured the NEW ALM You're My Cup of Tea girl with my Copics and cut her out and popped her up on the NEW Snowflake Doily Die-namics from ccorrugated cardstock and cut a circle from patterned paper with my Circle STAX for the center of the Snowflake Doily. 

I also added the fabulous NEW Looped Border Die-namics cut from Jellybean Green Heavyweight Cardstock. I made a gift card pocket with the NEW Gift Card Pocket - Horizontal from Red Hot Heavyweight Card Stock and stamped the small dots from the Darling Dots Stamp set on the front and embossed it with Zing Opaque White Embossing powder. I made a little tag with the Traditional Tag STAX Die-namics and stamped the sweet sentiment from the NEW ALM You're My Cup of Tea on it with MFT Wild Cherry Premium Dye Ink. Layered over snowflakes cut from corrugated cardstock using the Let it Snowflake Die-namics.

Here is a detail shot of my ALM girl...I LOVE her giant cup of tea and you can see I stamped a tiny little snowflake on the tea bag tag from the Christmas Ornaments Stamp set. I think she looks so cute in her Christmas out-fit. I know you will be seeing lots of this cutie from me.

and I finished off the inside of my card, as always...I stamped the NEWALM You're my Cup of Tea girl again with MFT Wild Cherry Premium Dye Ink and added another Looped Border cut with the NEW Looped Border Die-namics and a sentiment panel made with the NEW Snowflake Doily. I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Ornaments Stamp set and added another layer of corrugated Snowflakes cut with the Let it Snowflake Die-namics. I inked the snowflakes with White Mix'd Media Inx in Jasmine (white).

Thanks SO much for taking the time to and I truly appreciated all the sweet comments! Please take a few more minutes to swing by Kim's blog for links to all the MFT Designers with cards with the super cute NEW ALM You're My Cup of Tea.

Happy Stampin'!
Hugs,
