A Good Cup of Tea

All my friends know how much of a tea jenny I am so when I came across this free digi at Beary Wishes I just had to play with it.  The sentiment is also a free digi but I can't remember where it came from.  If you haven't paid a visit to Beary Wishes yet it's well worth a look, there are loads of gorgeous freebies to be had.  The image has been coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers.
The papers, flowers, buttons and some of the gems are all Tea Party by Dovecraft.  I came across and Wilkinson's while on holiday and they had a few crafty bits that I just couldn't resist, the Tea Party stuff being part of my purchase.  I have to admit that it was out of the packaging and being played with when I should really have been catching up with all the holiday washing!
All the edges have been given the Timmy tool treatment and I've gone along some of them with Stickles in Diamond and Eucalyptus.
The corners have been encrusted with an assortment of blingy stuff for added sparkle and the final touch was to glitter the mouse's dress.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges -

Sketch Saturday - #216 - sketch
