Here's my card for the Tuesday Teapot challenge where we had an inspirational teapot with cupcakes - as well as the CAS challenge - to use cupcakes! (love when that happens - two challenges - one card!
I think I'm going to use this teapot die to death for these challenges!!! but it works SO well for them!!!
I covered half the pot with bitty box patterned paper and used a pink dotted fabric tape behind it.
I did one of my other favorite things - embossing the oval on the card after I put the fabric tape on.
I stamped my cupcake, colored it with Copics and layered it onto the teapot with foam tape. Then I just stamped Tea Time on the card in the corner.
My card will be going postal to our Teapot Destination this week - Elsie in Colorado - who's b'day is 10/31 - her son was killed in Afghanistan and she could use some extra cheering this year - and hopefully our cards will do the trick.
Love your teapot die! And that cupcake on the teapot is perfect for this week's teaparty! This is a wonderful card. Thank you for sending it to my friend, Elsie. It will help her have a cheery birthday. She is going to love this.

Great card! Elsie will love this beauty, especially with the patriotic colors. I did a double take when I saw your embossing... what an awesome effect!
