I cannot remember what I cut everything at or the name of the Designer Series Paper. It was what was left of a retired pack from a few years ago. The hearts are punched out using the Heart Trio Punch out of the Red Glimmer Paper. The name was printed on Whisper White card stock with a computer printer. I used the paper trimmer to emboss the lines. The hearts are popped up with Dimensionals. They looked very elegant on the tables.
Each mother/daughter duo brought their own teacup and saucer. She choose one of her great-grandmother's (on the right) and I choose one that my husband gave me (on the left).
Each table had a different teapot that was loaned from one participant's vast collection. The ladies setting the tables knew how much I like cats. I would serve tea with this one any day!
Only now do I realize that I failed to get pictures of the gorgeous serving table. For that I apologize. We did enjoy the sweet fellowship, along with a plethora of tasty teas. I relished the stories of grandmothers, mothers, and aunties that owned the different cups. I especially enjoyed observing aged hands gracefully lifting delicate cups to smiling lips while hearts burst with love and memories. And I will never forget seeing my girl across the table doing the same.
