Ranging from classic sports and carnival themes to the quirkier masquerade ball or ’70s disco night, there’s something to suit almost every kid in this list.

This amazing card from Lynn is a tea-rrific way to use up pattern paper scraps. She used banner dies that might normally be hung in a row and designed her own starburst pattern with them. She used two different sizes of banner dies, each with faux stitching, and cut out different coordinating floral and polka dot papers, placing them in a circle on the background with the points facing out. In the center are two die cut circles and a stamped tea cup, plate and spoon. For these she used a fun paper piecing technique, stamping them on pattern paper and cutting them out along the stamped edges, piecing them back together. There’s also a puny stamped sentiment, some silver domed accents and a 3D flower. This card is sure to put a big smile on any tea lovers face!
