Royal Tea Bridal Shower Blog Hop


Welcome, one and all, to the ROYAL TEA BRIDAL SHOWER BLOG HOP, where we shall celebrate the upcoming marriage of Prince William to the beautiful Kate!  If you have arrived here from Elaine, then you are on the right track!  If you just stopped by my blog for a visit, please start this fabulous blog hop at the beginning at Ellen's blog at cardmonkey-business.blogspot.com.  You don't want to miss any of the talented people and projects you will see on this hop, or the fabulous blog candy you will have a chance to win.  For this blog hop, I chose to make a Trifold Shutter card with a TEA party theme for the bridal shower.   I hope you like it!


If you would like to see a video on this, just leave it on your comment, and I will get one posted soon.  I used the La Creme patterned paper, as well as a vanilla color for the base, and gold for the teapot.  I used a shimmery blue for the tea cups and sentiment, and ran the tea pot and tea cups through cuttlebug folders.  Other tea cups are vanilla color, also run through the cuttlebug.  I tried to use classy pearls for royalty, but I love my bling way too much, so I used more of the Royal Blue rhinestones!

I also have some blog candy to offer for this ROYAL event. 


In order to win this candy, please become a follower, and leave a comment on this post that includes a way to contact you if you win!  (I'm sorry, but I can only ship within the United States at this time).   I will choose a winner using random.org on Saturday morning.   

Now, it is time for you to continue on your royal journey to Shannon's blog.  If you get lost along the way, here is the lineup:
