I am having a little cup of tea and remembering some wonderful people for their up and coming birthdays. Deciding if I want to write them a little note on these vintage styled cards.
If you don't have a three tiered tray, you can create one. Just place three graduated size plates over two sherbet glasses.
My plates are all vintage Bavarian china.
And, I can never have enough shells.
Thanks for joining me for tea today.
The first picture had the texture luminous with an overlay at 60%.
The second picture had the texture stained linen with a linear burn at 32%.
All textures by Kim Klassen.

I love use of the sea shells for your tea. I have just recently started picking up shells at thrift stores to go with a sea themed little bench. So this is another idea I can use the shells for.....thanks1

Love, love, love your seashell photos! I've been collecting shells for as long as I can remember. You have some great specimens.
Beautiful china. Very clever way to make a tiered plate.
This is so charming. I love shells. Nature's little beautifully created knick knacks.
A delightful tea post, Sherry. Your sea shells are wonderful specimens! I am always on the look out for different shells when I go to the beach but many of them get snatched up by all the tourists who frequent our beaches here in the summertime. Thank you for a lovely post and have a wonderful week.
Blessings,
Sandi
