I was instantly drawn to the Tea Stack o’ Cups set and couldn’t wait to create my own custom teacups using fun patterned paper.

I cut two teacups from both dies used, one for the top layer and one for the bottom layer, selecting coordinating colors and patterns.  I used the tiny hearts die and the delicate flowers die to cut decorative designs from both teacups.  I love this fun feature with this die set.

I made sure the bottom layer on both teacups, was a contrasting color from the top layer so that the detailed cuts would be noticeable.  I embellished the bottom teacup with felt flowers cut using another of the dies found in this set and adhesive pearls.  I then stacked my two teacups, allowing the top to tilt a little and add to the character and charm of this sweet die set. The Tea Stack o’ Cups dies bring out the little kid in you as you mix and match patterns and colors and add embellishments as you go.  Love them!
