Anyone is welcome to play in the weekly Teapot Challenge - the more, the merrier! You automatically become a “TEApotter” the first time you play. Where will you find inspiration? Will it be from the teapot? The destination location? Something of the recipient? Or could it be from the challenge itself? Remember, sending your card to the listed guest of honor is 100% voluntary - it's not a requirement but will be very well appreciated. Just have fun!

Sorry for ignoring all your tutorials, Susie. So funny, because last night I was looking at ideas for my next TLC and totally independently came up with the Border Frames as one possibility, because I have never done that one. Well, I guess I have done it on my own bat a few times, but not consciously from the tutorial. I always have loved the faux wood frames and the shadowbox frame card.
oh my gosh - all the cards are gorgeous !! I hope to try the faux wood frame technique, but at this time I'll be sending Joann a card with flower die cuts and an elegant lady.
I had "fried brains" by the time I got home from work yesterday and just couldn't focus on creating anything. Today is my day off so finally got a card ready to sent Joann.
Yeah, I cheated, after first making 6 of these Yorkies and trying to make a frame out of them. Simplicity won out on this odd little card, but I like it and I hope Joann smiles over it, too. MMTPT608 Out Of The Frame Yo... by Lori "Artzadoni"
Thanks, Susie, for a fun challenge! I've always wanted to try the double matted frames--finally did! Here's my card, Fluffles Framed, for Joann.
