HD Perfect Days - Afternoon Tea

Today I have cards made from another Hunkydory set.  This set - Afternoon Tea - comes from the kit called Perfect Days.

Set as it comes:

The 5 cards that I made from it and some misc from my stash:

There's a 6 x 6 card, a 5 x 7 card, a slimline card, and two A2 cards.  And now a closer look at each card.

Card #1:


This one is pretty straight forward.  I started by cutting the piece of lavender checked scrap for a background.  Next I added the die cuts (some on foam tape), splitting the border behind the sentiment so it stretched all the way across.  The sentiment itself is on foam tape, and I added a ribbon bow from my stash.  I finished it by adding gold Thin Line Border Dazzles from HOTP.

Card #2:

 
Next up is the slimline card.  This one was created using a panel cut from the coordinating AS (Adoreable Scoreable printed card stock) in the set.  I cut a piece of leftover AS to extend the bottom of the panel before adding it to my card.  I covered the join with a piece of border and put another piece of it toward the top of the card.  I added a layered piece on the focal with foam tape - and then added the sentiment using the same.  I again added gold Border Dazzles - this time wider strips just on either side of the card.

Card #3:
 
Next up is another piece of AS for the background - with focal, extra pieces, corners, and sentiment added die cut pieces (some on foam tape).  This time I did something extra special on the inside:

 
I used one of the smaller die cut pieces to add a pop-up feature on the inside of the card.  I also added just a strip of the AS that was used on the card front.
 
Card #4:
 
This card started with a small piece of AS left over from making cards.  I matted it with gold tag board, wrapped a ribbon around it, and glued it to a mat of patterned paper from my stash.  I added some extra pieces to the foal with foam tape, added a bow to the top left corner of the focal, and the added a die cut sentiment on top of the bow.
 
Card #5:
 
By the time I got to the last card of this set, I had already used most of my supplies.  I added a checked lavender piece from my stash, added my die cut focal (with extra piece on foam tape), added the sentiment from the set (upper right corner) and then finished with a greeting from HD's Little Book of Essential Greetings (lower left corner).

That's it.  5 cards from this set.
