Sometimes I debate when and if I should mention certain things on this blog. Like ... would you rather I wait and tell you about the adorable little tea-themed Easter cards I found at Barnes & Noble two days before Easter, when it's closer to the holiday but they're probably all gone, or would you like to know about them in time to take your $1.95 over there this week while you can still get one? Yes, I thought so. This one, "Chick Tea Party," is the prettiest of the two I bought. It's about 3-1/2 x 5 inches, and I hope you can see the dimensional effect and the gilded touches. It's really a lot of "card" and "workmanship" for the price.
And this one, titled "Eggs & Vase," isn't quite as jazzy, but it has a pink teacup on it, so I got it, too. I actually bought these as "collectibles" (I've become obsessed with tea-themed graphics) and to decorate with, not to actually send to anybody! They're by Punch Studio / The Gifted Line, names I'll bet are familiar to fellow stationery junkies.Today, by the way, marks my last tea blog post of Winter, because tomorrow we welcome Spring! I've got a special tea item I've been squirreling away in the tea cabinet, refusing to even use before March 20. Can you guess what it is?

I cannot imagine the March 20 post, having seen those delightful cards! You know those are right up my alley! I think I shall welcome spring with a trip to the B&N!
Those cards are gorgeous and $1.95 seems like a very reasonable price. Is your special tea item a luscious loose tea, perhaps with a flowery bouquet to welcome Spring or a pretty flowered cup? Can't wait to find out.
My favorite store in my hometown - hundreds of miles away - carries an entire wall full of cards in that same style, which I love. Thanks so much for that post! I'll now be headed to B&N to get my cute card fix for Easter.
Ooooh! You made the right call!
Barnes and Noble, here I come!
Love the cards. I have a weakness for pretty tea cards and must go to Barnes & Noble now.
Thanks for sharing the source for these cards.
Spring has sprung
The grass has riz
Wonder where the flowers is...
Spring is busting out all over!
I'll venture a guess!
Maybe it's one of those super duper tea thingeys that when you add water it becomes a flower bouquet!
I can hardly wait to see your surprise!
hmmmmnnn...is it some sort of "Chia Pet?" I don't have a clue...Happy Spring! Joanie
