MDS Tea Shoppe Cards

Did I ever mention, how much I'm enjoying MDS? Creating is enjoyable, and so is the shopping! Today I downloaded the MDS version of that gorgeous stamp set, Tea Shoppe, which has long been on my Wish List!

One feature of MDS which is invaluable, is the ability to re-size images, and this stamp set illustrates that very well. It was so easy, to create the teacup so it was just the right size for this particular card.

The background is Pool Party, using a stamp from another MDS download, called Bunch of Backgrounds. I would highly recommend this stamp download, it is extremely versatile. The pretty border is part of the Tea Shoppe set, and the cup is stamped with the luscious new colour, Strawberry Slush. Cardstock is Melon Mambo and there is a hint of pleated doily peeping from the teacup.

Here is another version, using Pale Plum as the background colour, with Rich Razzleberry for the cup and Old Olive for the sentiment. Another feature of MDS is the ability to save a card design and later change the design or colours, simply by clicking on the components.

I would like to thank Claire Daly for her excellent MDS video, where she showcased the Bunch of Backgrounds stamp set used on these cards. Here is the link to Claire's video:
