I made this card for Mothermarks Teapot Tuesday challenge. Everything was punched out, Slot punch, 5 petal punch, six petal punch, nesties ovals and 1 inch circle punch. Once I had it all assembled I coated it all with Versamark and Crystal Clear embossing. Once that was done I used liquid pearl to fill in the small flowers on the sides.
The paper I started out with was very close to the color of Cindy's teapot but when I embossed it it became darker. Oh Well.

Oh my gosh! This totally has me oh my goshing! This is the coolest! I love, love, love it! When you get to the tea party, you might hear some rumors that cool cards are getting stolen and hidden under the couch pillows! There is a whole stack of them by now.....Yours will most definately end up there as its most desirable!
Thanks so much for coming! Marilynn is bringing ange food cake for desert! She always makes something yummy! Your card just rocks and your little card holder up is da bomb!

Holy cow! This is absolutely awesome! Amazingly creative take on Cindy's teapot! Love the flower detail and the embossing! This one will disappear into the couch cushions for sure!

I'm thinking if you put it right next to the real tea pot that Gertie won't be able to tell the difference! This is so cool. It looks perfectly glazed. Lovely work!

So divine teapot! Well, you better keep that one close to you at the party, I've seen some odd things disappear at the party before. We are all such a nice bunch of ladies, but some of us have some backgrounds we would rather not talk about...lol Love the shine on your "teapot". Stunning addition to the gallery! TFS

WOW what is WITH you ladies and turning simple punches into masterpieces?! A girl after Cindy's heart, this is soooo amazing, and when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a REAL teapot you had! Great job!!!!
