You how sometimes you have a project to do and it kinda blocks everything else out? Well it's a bit like that for me at the moment. I'm hoping to have got this piece finished by the end of the month but have to admit to struggling both with it and getting anything else creative even started. Can you tell I'm a little frustrated? Sorry about that.
The new Inspiration Station Challenge was not a struggle at all. We have a picture each time to set your creativity off, on the first and third Monday of every month. This time it's this.
It is the middle of winter for us northern hemisphere inhabitants, a warm cuppa is just what the doctor ordered. A mug you can wrap your hands around filled with a warm comforting beverage to send the chill packing. Well thats what I thought of anyway.
Another postcard the sort you might send to a friend with an invitation. The stamps are an old Kanban set stamped and embossed in black then coloured with felt pens. Mug and cake masked a Paper Artsy stencil put in place and the flowers brushed in. The expression Tea Time came from the same stencil.
As always the Inspiration Station team have come up with some cracking ideas based on the picture. Now we just want to see how you are inspired and don't forget there is a prize for one lucky entry drawn at random.
I'd also like to share this with:

Another wonderful DT project for The Inspiration Station Zoe! I like the stamped images and stenciled background. I've been meaning to create some postcards and you've inspired me to make my next project a post card! Donna

As I sit here I keep looking at the clock as it is nearly time for tea! Love your rich red, it give it a lovely warm and inviting feel. Sadly I shan't be enjoying cake with my tea, such a shame as your cake looks delicious but I am having to be strict myself after all the Christmas indulgence xx
