Boy the week sure does fly by fast, doesn't it? And the week-ends are gone in a blink of an eye! I sometimes just wonder where the time went and did I get as much done as I could? Do you ever think about that?
This is a sign re-make. I sold the other Tea sign a year ago, so I revisited it but this time it has more mixed media elements and my own handwriting.
Although I like how the sign turned out, I think the handwriting should have been a stronger element. It's hard to think bigger and bolder when you feel weak in that area. I can compare it to putting a party dress on when you are overweight...the confidence isn't there, and it shows.
You can see the older tea sign here, I still followed the basic design, but there are differences in how I approached some things, and new tools that I used.

Basically I am trying to stay away from using sticker letters and to employ my own handwriting. That is my main focus with me currently. I love this book by Joanne Sharpe and find loads of inspiration in it. You can get it in the Frosted Design store and work on your lettering too!
I hope that you can find the time to hop over to the Frosted Designs blog and check out my video and maybe, leave me a comment. ♥ Plus if you play along with me and enter your project over on the Frosted Designs Face Book page then you have a chance some free graphics with a random drawing.

Hi Sandee, I love your oh-so -cute tea signs! I'm still waiting for my book as publication delayed in UK..thanks for hopping over to my blog this week, much appreciated, hugs Carole Z X
LOVE these! As a tea drinker, they are just so pretty. I especially love the first one as the softness and shabby chic look just grabbed me (the birdie is precious!!)
