You Stack Up!

Brutus Monroe has such great stamp designs but

that isn't all, the cardstock is beautiful!

Starting with Tea Time Stamp Set and 6 colors of B.M. cardstock

I stamped the stacked teacups on all 6 colors plus white using

 Brutus Monroe Detail Ink in Raven

I cut each image

not just that, I cut each cup from each color then restacked them all

Again I stamped the stacked cups, this time 6 times on plain white cardstock. 

Using Brutus Monroe Craft Glue, I reassembled each and cut them out.

These funky stacked circles seemed like the perfect match for the stacked teacups.

I also decided no stack of  teacups should be without a doilie. I used 

the Leah - Mandala Die from Brutus Monroe and thick white cardstock. 

After choosing which cup stack I was using, I strategically cut each

color, the largest cut from a 5.25x5.25 black square to next the piece back

together in.

With so many colors in the image, I thought the sentiment should be kept simple

but needed a little bit extra, embossing time! I used the Brutus Monroe Embossing Ink

along with Raven Embossing Powder

This sparkley white ribbon seems to hold it all together plus

a few drops of Nuvo Glitter Drops and a bit

of Clear Nuvo to make the straw stand out!
