Hi All,
Welcome to the Royal Blog Hop. Celebrate GREEN
This time of year, it is so fun and a little bit sad, as our new catalog comes out and the old catalog has retiring items. There is just a little time left to purchase items at up to 60% off. Go to my store HERE to see what’s left!
This set is so cute and it has paper to match which makes it so fun and quick. And the Blog this week is a Royal one. The theme is GREEN! I think this qualifies. Here is the Project Sheet: Cut of Tea
This set is retiring, so if you want it, you only have a few days left. And today is FREE SHIPPING DAY!
Cutting Instructions:
- Score Thick Basic White at 5-1/2 the cut at 4-1/4. This gives you 2 top fold cards
- Using just one card base, add an additional score at 2. This will fold back on itself.
- Cut a strip of Granny Apple Green at 4 x 1-7/8 top fold back and another at 4 x 2 1/8 for base of card
- Using the InColor 2022-2024 DSP, cut a piece 4 x 3-1/4
Assembly Instructions:
- Glue smaller Granny Apple strip on back fold, the larger on the base card and the DSP on the front under the flap that folds back.
- Stamp 2 cups with you favorite pattern and die cut them out.
- Stamp “It’s Time for Tea” twice and die cut out as a tea bag tag
- Stamp :Let’s get together Soon” inside
I’m so sorry to say that our beloved Stamparatus is retired and have sold out. They may be available on eBay or some other site. It is by far my most favorite too. I will review other stamp tools and create a later post with my recommendations. Check next week as I show you how to add tabs to your new catalog and the week after that, I’ll show you how to DYI two different stamp positioners.
I drew the lines with the card closed in a Frixion pen which is erasable (you can use a pencil). Once you have it like you like it, open card and make the lines go to the center. Next stamp the saying and make it look attached. When it’s right where you want it, make the line thicker by using a slim tipped Sharpie.
If you don’t have a demonstrator and want a new catalog, email me at jandufour@yahoo.com and I’ll mail you one. It starts on May 2nd. Jandufour@yahoo.com

I love your fun fold card. I’m bummed about the Stamparatus. Your idea for other stamp positioners is intriguing.
Thanks Sue. I’m looking forward to putting out my catalog tabs and the hacks for stamp positioning.
What a great card. I am such a fan of this set. I will definitely be keeping this on my favorites shelf. Beautiful use of greens to showcase the teacups!
Thanks Pam, it’s one that I will keep as well.
What a super-fun card, Jan! I love the layout and your great tips for making it. So glad you hopped with us today! ♥
Thanks Brian. I appreciate the opportunity to hop and I enjoyed making this card.
What a cute card!! I love the fold and design. I totally forgot I have this set of products. I’ll have to play with it even though it’s leaving us soon.
Thanks Sheryl, I’m keeping this set too. I purged other older sets so I could keep a few of the newer retired ones, lol.
Awesome. I love Green Tea too! My daughter really likes this set, so glad I got it for her before it retired.
Thanks Renae, I’m keeping this set for myself!
What a fun card! Love those tea boutique cards & envelopes.
Thanks Marilyn. I love it when Stampin’ Up! does matching cards and envys. They are always so more “fancy” than I make mine, especially the envelopes, lol.
This is so fun! I love your tea bags leading to the sentiment!
Thanks Jackie, so things just come to me at the end. I didn’t originally plan for this but I think it worked out OK!
