Sweet Tea and Cupcakes Mini-Kit Freebie!!!!

Well, here we are again! It has been a CRAZY week! This week's mission was to create a color palette from two colors, and then create a mini kit with no Commercial Use items. Most digital scrapbook papers are made by making a pattern and then adding an overlay to add some texture. Well, when I am designing, I tend to turn to these tools WAY too much! So this week was a real challenge!

I spent the first couple of days figuring out what I wanted my theme and color palette to be. And then I had to figure out how to make my designs look real without relying on CU items. So I went on a search in my house for things I could use for texture on my papers. I tried cloth, cardstock, blankets... you name it I probably tried it! Well, some of my experiments were complete flops, but I was able to make a few textured overlays! Yay! It was a difficult week, but I feel like I learned SO much about design... which is exactly why I am in this contest!

So anyway, you probably don't need to hear about all of my creative adventures, so on to what you really want to see!

The inspiration for this kit came from my love of all things Tea! I have a collection of teapots, and have a cup of hot tea more than occasionally. It is a tradition in our house to have a tea party for almost any special occasion, even when that occasion is just Tuesday! I hear "Mommy, can we have a tea party?" several days a week... and I thought it was fitting to make a kit to commemorate those special moments.

When I figured out what my theme was, I started thinking about what colors would work best for my theme and this is what I came up with:
