I hope your week has gotten off to a good start. Not much new around here. Tonight is Idol night though. So far I am really disappointed with it this year. I have a few favorites (Crystal and Lee) but overall I am not impressed. I am not sure what to think of Ellen as a judge either. I really like her on her show but am not sure about her being a judge on idol. Are any of your watching it? If so I would love to hear your thoughts.
Today I am sharing my entry for the third Peeps Challenge. This challenge is hosted by Kimberley. She asked us for birthday card ideas for her sister. It needs to be a feminine card featuring orange zest. Bonus points if you work in Spring Rain, her second favorite color or a tea theme, since tea is one of her favorite things in the world.
I am not a big fan of orange so this was definitely a challenge for me. I do love the tea set and spring rain though.
I started with last weeks Mojo Monday sketch.
The background was made with Guidelines 2 and was inspired by Diane's use of it here. The sentiment is from the Birthday Basics set. Some orange zest satin ribbon and 2 tiny pearls finish it off. Inside the card you will find this
I created a little pocket to add a tea bag.
That's it for now. Feel free to join in the challenge too. I hope to be back soon with more things to share. As always thanks for stopping by and I hope your day is a great one!

Lovely card Terri, actually amazing how well Orange Zest and Spring Rain ended up working together!
Very cute. Love your color combo and every time I see that tea pot, I realize I MUST add it to my list.
Pretty card! I am a lover of the color orange and your tea pot is so pretty. Love how you made the background also. (I'm not an Idol watcher.)
Hi Terri, I love your use of Orange Zest! Brownie points for combining it with Spring Rain too ;D
Such a fun card!
I'm working on my entry, just gotta wait for things to dry first LOL!

Beautiful! That is a great bg you created.
Nice job Terri. I'm always impressed with the guidelines backgrounds. It seems so labor intensive. Really pretty.
Cute, cute, CUTE! You may not like orange, but you did an awesome job w/it! :)
I am really liking this color combo
Your use of color in this card is awesome! That is a great teapot stamp, too.
Terri,this is so lovely! Great background. I'm going to have to ink up my Guidelines.
Very pretty! I'm not a big lover of orange either but it works great for contrast and looks fabulous with the light blue. Love your background and wonderful orange teapot--such fun!!
Beautiful card Terri! Can I tell you again how much I love the way you use colors? They always put a smile on my face. :o)
I JUST got the Tea for Two stamp set. Can't wait to start playing with it!
Terri this turned out FABULOUS! I LOVE you added the little pocket inside with some tea!!! Nicely done on the challenge!!!
have a GREAT Day!
ta carte est vraiment splendide, j'espère que je vais arriver à trouver ces couleurs dans mes papiers
Bravo
Very pretty card. Nice job! Love the color combo!
Great job! Love these colors and the added tea bag is a plus - perfect for this challenge.
Love this Terri, the orange and blue are so pretty together! Love that you included a tea bag inside too :)
You used the colors beautifully! I have trouble stamping the teapot and getting a solid image so I know how tricky that can be.
Beautiful Terri!!! Love the added tea bag!! Never crossed my mind!
This is great! I love that tea pot - it's my favorite of the bunch.
We watch AI too - Ellen is just a little too nice as a judge I think. I was sad to see Lilly go b/c I think she has a fun and different style...so Boulder! lol But we love Crystal and Lee too.
