Creative Tuesdays - Teatime

For Creative Tuesdays' 'Teatime' theme, this is what I created!  The sketch started off with some teabags then I thought it needed a teacup to go with it.  The yellow background was added to cover up some pink mistakes in my attempt to make the teabags translucent.  And that is how the painting evolved!

Acrylic on textured cardstock (6" x 6").

Very pretty. I still have a set of pink tea-cups which belonged to my Mum. Valerie

That's a lot of tea bags for one cup.

Hi you! Thank you for your sweet message. AND I have to say I LOVE that sock match in the post below, what a cool idea. AND I love your new painting - the yellow added later really makes the pink pop. xoxo

The yellow may have been to cover up some mistakes but it totally works, Christine. Another WONDERFUL piece! I love the dots and the whole composition. Works really really well. A great last piece for CT! Little did you know! :) Thanks again, Christine. So appreciate you.
