12 Layouts of Alice - Layout #8

Hi, everbody. I'm feeling a bit better today, even though I get waves of melancholy here and there. I guess that is just what it is going to be like until I get used to the idea of my daughter being out of the house. So here is number eight of my 12 Layouts of Alice. This layout is called Clean Cup, Clean Cup, Move Down after my favorite scene in Disney's Alice in Wonderland. The photos are of some of the tea cups I have collected over the years. Yes, I collect tea cups and teapots! Sounds lame when I say it outloud, lol,  but I do so love them!

Here is Tim's tag for day #8. For more information on Tim's products, techniques, or 12 Tags of Christmas visit his website at timholtz.com.

Clean Cup, Clean Cup, Move Down layout. I created tha background by inking and distressing beige cardstock. I created the stacked up tea cups by layering some of my tea cup stamps and stamping with embossing ink. I then used Black Soot Distress Embossing Powder, heat embossed them, and colored them in with markers. I made the vellum paper in the background as well  by stamping phrases on it, inking the entire piece of velum with Antique Linen Distress Ink, setting the ink with a heat tool and distressing it.
