There is an intricate version and CAS version so it will be easy for anyone to play
I used some linen fabric textured paper I've been hoarding forever waiting for the right card to use it on. I thought it went so well with Priscilla's beautiful teapot image. I have a "thing" for teapots as my mother is British and she collects them.
I also used some beautiful shiny pearl linen card stock and gold edged ribbon from The Paper Temptress found here:
The gold trim on the sides of the image panel was given to me from Priscilla. It was the last of it. I was able to use it on 2 cards.
I used the SU Teahouse background stamp behind the image and embossed it with the Fleur De Lis ef. Added some vintage buttons, gold pearls and paper piercing. There's also gold stickles added to the teapot and crystal effects on the flowers and leaves.
Thanks SO MUCH for taking a look and hope you have a wonderful week.
I just realized I could use this for the StampinB challenge to use a background stamp. Mine is behind the image, but hard to see!
PT: Yikes, not a one, unless the paper piercing is counted!!

Super lovely card and a fabulous use of priscilla's teapot. Love all your embellies and how you make it seem as though each one was actually created for your card.

Oh, and I just LOVE *your* teapot card, Pamzi!! Wow, you made this look so special. I love all of the great gold accents, especially the glitter teapot base. Your beautiful DP complements the design on your teapot perfectly! Great vintage buttons, too. A lovely creation, for sure!

Hey there, Friend! I hope all is going well with you these days. I haven't forgotten about you, but life is keeping me busy this summer. It's all good though, so I can't complain.
I love, love, love this teapot image and what you've put together. This is such a romantic-feeling card. Love those rose embellishments.
