Sneak Peek: Toni's Tea Set!
One of my favorite things to do is to go for afternoon tea with friends - when I was in San Jose last month I went for tea at "Lisa's Tea Treasures" with my good friends Lisa and Debbie. It was great! And whenever Alma has asked The Cat Pack for ideas for stamp sets, I have always suggested tea. What can I say? I drink several cups of Earl Grey every day; as an English girl, I think it's just in my blood :)
So I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was when Alma told us that there were some tea stamps coming up with this next release. I have had a blast playing with these sets (and the Divine Twine)...and when I saw that Alma had named one of the sets "Toni's Tea Set" - well, there is one very happy girl here in Colorado!! It is my tremendous pleasure to introduce you to Toni's Tea Set today...and don't forget to stop by Sony's blog - she's also going to have a sample made with this set for you today!

I love the second card!!! Maybe because you colored it so fresh :) and I totally love the buttons :)
How cool that she named the set after you!! :) The cards you've made with them are adorable!
Both of these are simply Ahhhhhmazing! I love the soft pinks and patterned paper buttons on the one and the bright blue/green colors and layout on the other. Not to mention all the beautiful hand stitching! Beautiful!!!
