I'm late to the party, but I'm here, I finally got my Teapot card done! Combined Sabrina's fun TLC Step Pop-Up Card and Sandy's Teapot Are you a Camper or a Glamper? challenges.
I followed Frenchie's tutorial for the step card. Embossed the front and inside, sponged on oxide inks in Faded Jeans and Wilted Violet. Splattered with water and added silver dots for stars. Sponged on Old Paper ink for trees and Broken China for water on cover. Stamped a trailer, camp fire and trees on inner panel. Colored images and sponged on Distress inks for bg and campfire glow. Stamped, colored with colored pencils/gamsol and fussy cut my camper and critters. Adhered to panels. Created some camping signs and the greeting to complete. I had a blast making this card! TFL

I saw this last night and was just enchanted. What a wonderful scene. The skies are just amazing, and the woods, love all the different owl-populated trees. And the little dog
..and those adorable raccoons, which are something I'd love to see in real life some time. What a wonderful card, Carla.

Oh my gosh, Carla, this is wonderful. (And since we just returned from a weekend camping, I can confirm it is also totally realistic, especially the drink and the dog parts.)
I'm sure some teapotter is going to have as much fun receiving it as you had making it.

SO gorgeous! Loved how you combined the 2 challenges and the scene you created. The details you added with all the critters give this card a life of its own!
