Hi there crafty friends, it’s Cheiron here and I have a sweet little card for you today combining the Tim Holtz Sizzix Cafe Colorize die and tons of fun new Idea-ology papers. This card is simple to make and the Colorize Tea cup makes the perfect embellishment.

First, we will cut and assemble the Colorize die. I used some of the brand new Idea-ology Kraft Stock to cut my shapes. This kraft stock comes in 3 color packs (Cool, Warm and Neutral) and has a nice smooth finish. I used the Cool and Neutral to create my card. I took out all the dies for the little tea cup and you will see they are engraved and say Tea 1 -Brown, Tea 2-Brown, etc. Instead of browns, I selected a bunch of different hues of blue to create my cup . For the steam, you will need hues of grey, but go with what you have. I inked the edges of all the pieces with Vintage Photo Distress Ink before I assembled them.

Once the cup, was assembled, I created a background using a piece of brown Kraft Stock that I had embossed with the Swirls embossing folder and inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I added some of the paper from the Backdrops Volume 2 pack to the bottom of my swirls piece to ground the cup, and added the cup with foam tape to give it dimension. I placed the swirls panel on a thin mat of black, then foam taped the panel onto a floral panel which is also from the Backdrops Volume 2 (all inked on the edges with Vintage Photo).

To complete the card, I added an Idea-ology sentiment Label Sticker and some Metallic Droplets. I hope you enjoyed this little tutorial and a closer look at incorporating these beautiful Kraft Stocks into your projects.
