A two-fer ....

Two for the price of one tonight!  I was asked to make some invitations for afternoon tea for a Christmas present so I thought this little LOTV stamp would be just perfect.  I paired it with some old Christmas papers ... though I've just noticed that I've stuck my DP upside down on the 2nd card, Doh (ah well, I'll say nothing and no-one will notice ;)    I've been determined to use this old DP up, so I'm so glad to see I'm nearly at the end of it!
Image coloured with watercolour pencils, and a wee bit of sparkle added to the tea cups though it doesn't show up on my photos.

Two adorable cards! Don't worry about the patterned paper being upside down. Even though you said it is wrong way I really had to looked at it before I could tell. :)
