Sip and Relax

Sip and Relax. That sounds good to me. Maybe I need to send this card to myself. My work schedule has been grueling. If you work in retail, between now and Christmas, you are BUSY! I've been working 6 days a week. Sometimes I think I should not even bother to come home and just sleep in my car in the parking lot. LOL! But I sure am enjoying the money though! Right now it just goes right in the bank because I have no time to spend it, but when I do have time to spend it, it will be fun! LOL!

I made this card weeks ago for the CC233 Color Challenge on Splitcoaststampers, but since I haven't had time to create anything 'new', I'm posting this one now. The colors were Real Red, Chocolate Chip, and Kraft. The image is from Papertrey Ink 'Tea for Two'. I just love this little tea pot, and since I am a tea drinker, and I collect tea pots, I thought it was the perfect set for me to own. I mounted both the tea pot and the sentiment up on dimensionals. All the various shapes on the card were cut using Spellbinder's Nestabilities.
Well I'm off to work again today, but I hope you all will have time today to 'Sip and Relax'. I know I won't. LOL! Amy

    Beautiful card, Amy! So sorry you are working so hard, sometimes life is just so unfair! When we have lots of money, we have no time to spend it, when we have lots of time, we have no money - lol! Have a nice Sunday, sweetie!

    I like the combination of the various shapes of the teapot, circle, label and wavy rectangle. Very nice.

    I can't believe you are working 6 days a week now. Don't they have anyone else who works in that store?
