The spring tea room is a unique tradition of the southern United States. Each spring local churches host a daily tea for a week or two. They come complete with lovely music, the most delectable homemade luncheon choices, scrumptious desserts, and of course, tea! Each lady is escorted to their table by a formally clad southern gentleman. It's all very genteel, and after enjoying your dining experience you can shop from a vast variety of handmade items and goodies in the tea room shop. If you're ever visiting this region you should definitely plan to attend a church tea room.
Maja Design's beautiful 'Coffee in the Arbour' paper collection is the absolute perfect paper collection to bring this card to life.
There are several stitched base layers and much dimension throughout, though it is difficult to capture it on camera.
The blooms are handmade from the paper collection and sit atop a chipboard frame featuring flowers and flourishes. A dusting of gesso tones down some of the brighter color. It's a little trick you can use when you want to achieve a more muted look.
The tea embellishments are fussy cut from the paper collection.
Below is a peek at the interior of the card.
