The teapot was cut with my Cricut Expression using the Dreams Come True cartridge. I cut out several and layered the pot three deep and the handle and spout two deep, all with dimensional tape between them. I took my scissors to the edges and used lots of Cat's Eye Jumbo Java chalk ink around the edges.
The gorgeous lace and ribbon is from Stamp and Create, the tea stamp is from Magnolia-licious, the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, the papers are Nitwit Buds n Blossoms, and the leaves are made with the Martha Stewart frond punch. I tied a piece of twine around the handle of the teapot and looped it around and tied the other end throught the tea stamp. I wanted to simulate a tea bag. I finished it all off by using some Kaiser flat backed pearls.
Because of the dimension, I also made an envelope box to hold it. So what do you think? Did I accomplish the shabby chic look? Please be sure and hop over to Papertake Weekly to see what fabulous creations the rest of the design team came up with. Then grab your paper, your glue, and then figure out what "something new" you've been wanting to do. We'd love to see it, and you just might win a prize! Thanks for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

Hi Sharon--I've been off traveling in Hawaii & California and haven't had a chance to comment on your beautiful cards in awhile. I absolutely adore this card (of course, I'm a teapot lover). Love that little tag, it looks just like a teabag hanging out of the pot. Well done, as always.
What a sweet card. Love that teapot & how you used the small stamp for a tea bag! Also like the "shabby chic" look!
Hugs~

OMG Sharon...this is fabulous! I love the paper. I may have to scraplift this for my sister in law who collects tea pots.
I love this card! I have teacups & teapots all over my kitchen (on a border)The Maggie tag goes perfectly. The paper you used is fabulous too. What a great card. Can you tell me do you use the pattern for the envelope box off ScorePal or do you have an easier way. Joyce and I were trying to figure it out for the 6 x 6 card last night. We gave up for the evening.) We were on the phone and Joyce was doing the measuring so it is all her fault we couldn't figure it out. LOL! I am going to give it a try today. YOurs turned out perfectly. I am jealous. lol.
big hugs,
Pam
