Stampin' Up! Tea Shoppe Tea for Two!
March 07, 2013
Good Morning! I'm off to have a "Liam Day" today, but before I go I want to show you one of the three Technique cards we will be making Saturday at my Punch/Technique Class!
I combined last year's Occasions Catalog favorite, Tea Shoppe stamp set with this year's Tea for Two Designer Paper, then added Delicate Details Lace Tape Masking, a technique Shelli Gardner demonstrated for us at Leadership:

You can see a hint of the lace tape masking on the card front, but it's much more evident on the inside, where I also used words from Blooming with Kindness, one of my favorite birthday phrases!

Here's a quick overview of this technique:
Attach the lace tape to the cardstock "lightly", do not press it into the project so it will be easier to remove later. Sponge desired color over and around tape, filling in all the openings in the design of the tape. Crumb Cake was sponged on the Crumb Cake cardstock for this project.

Finally, gently remove the tape to expose the lovely sponged design! This tape comes in two different designs in the package, so you have more variety. The tape is a type of tacky adhesive-backed plastic, so you can't really color ON it, but you can sponge over it, remove the tape, then re-use the tape on anther project (just be sure you wipe off any excess ink that may remain on the tape).

There are TWO more Technique projects coming up the next two days, so check back tomorrow and Friday!
Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!
To order supplies for this card and technique, go to my website's Online Ordering Store:
A bit late to the party as usual. I'm sure I could duplicate this technique by using one of my border punches from Martha Stewart. Find a good sturdy material to use in the border punch like a strip of vellum paper or even some contact paper. Coat a piece of watercolor paper with matte gel, then let it dry. Punch it out and use it in place of the coated lace ribbon. Wipe clean after sponging on your ink after each use. Hope this very late idea will help someone.

Alas, the lace tape is retired. Thank you for your kind words, Sharon.

I didn't know about lace tape. I'm so glad I watched your post. Your cards are very nice.

I'm so sorry, Debra. This product is now retired. I will look and see if I have any of it in my stash. I'm know to keep some of just about everything! I will let you know!
