1. This is one of my favorite teapots. What an easy card! The reason it's one of my favorites is that my son gave it to me as a gift. He and his room-mate pretty much drove all around town together in search of teapots for little old me! I am sure it was pretty embarrassing for a couple of 22 year-olds who have much more on their social calendar than spending time hunting teapots!!
2. When I first saw this teapot I thought River Rock! Hee! And although I had used almost all of mine, I was able to get my hands on a few scraps, enough to make this card! I have to admit that whenever I get gifts of any kind, I usually immediately start thinking about how I can re-create the gift in a card! Yikes, I am sick! Sick , I tell ya! Sick!!!
3. I used some Cuttlebug dies to cut the large flower petals and a small oval punch to make the small white petals. I punched them in an oval and then sorta just cut them into the more pointy shapes. I can't believe how much I use my punches. One day I am gonna have to admit that I am a paper crafter, not a stamper! But for now, I will continue to act like and pretend that I am a stamper! Snort!

LOVE it even though nary a stamp! As long as there is a teapot, though, we're good. Are you running out yet? You better not be because you will have party-goers causing a RIOT!
