For this week's Teapot Tuesday, we're heading to the North Pole. Apparently, Santa's having some trouble with the sleigh, and he's looking for alternatives. I am bringing the new, improved Rudolph 2.0. Not only is his nose shiny -- he is too, thanks to state-of-the-art, lightweight titanium. With the lighter weight and improved strength, maybe Santa can get the sleigh to work better. (If this sounds silly, check out Mother Mark's instructions, and join the fun, http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...2#post15483412)
Inspiration came from Mother Mark's lovely silver teapot.
Sketch is the CAS39 challenge.

I was here earlier but couldn't *see* your card! And no, it's not cuz I had a face full of snow from when Santa's old sleigh slammed into the reindeer barn in one last attempt at take off! Giggle!
I knew someone would show up with titanium! Duh....its the lightest metal evah! Don't let this dainty little reindeer fool ya, I was told a reindeer the likes of this could lift 42,000 pounds of presents and travel at the speed of light! Yep, this is the ticket!
What a fun card....what a great Christmas card for some lucky person. Sadly, when they open it up, they won't have any idear exactly what it is the have received, you know, I'm talking power here!

Didn't think I would ever use titanium and elegant in the same sentence but your card changed that notion. With Santa's little round belly I think he will appreciate the deer being a lightweight. Like the contrast of red with the silver.

A beautiful reindeer she is too! And with her red nose she can help guide the sleigh tonight...now I am singing and I am not sure you want to hear that! Very pretty card! TFS
