I made this teapot for Mothermark's 1 year anniversary of hosting her virtual teaparties. I wanted it to be a suprise so I didn't post it until I knew she had recieved it. The lid comes off and attached to the lid of the teapot are the photos that I recieved from the ladies who attend the teaparties with me. I also made the display case. On the display case are all the photos of Cindy's teapots minus the Japanese Ugly one. Not because it was ugly, but so that Cindy would get this in time for her anniversary, I had to leave off week 51 and week 52. I bet Cindy can add those herself. On the display case are all the SCS usernames that have attended the teaparty.
What do you think? I had so much fun making this!!!! SNUGS to all my teaparty friends!!

Ohhh wow Marliyn!!! I've not participated in the MotherMark's teaparty - but I have watched the incrediblely lovely and fun cards come into the gallery, and I've also read MotherMark's hilarious and kind comments . This is just fabululous, Marilyn - and so kind and wonderful of you to do. I just love it. I was already thinking - well - if I was going to play, if only I had then new colour soft suede and maybe pocket sillouhetters!
Fabulous teapot Marilyn,and I'm sure Cindy will LOVE this and all of the pictures!

Honestly Marilynn, what can I say about this! I honestly might be speechless....well probably not, but I was so blown away when I received this wonderful gift! When I sent you a pm to let you know I had received it, I forgot to mention how wonderful the little box that you made to put it in was incredible as well! I am so touched and honored that you did this for me!
You have made this year so fun and I appreciate you having never missed a tea party! Even when the auditor was there! Snort! How can I ever thank you enough! You and all the others are the reason this has been so fun and the reason a full year just flew by!

I look at this teapot in amazement MariLynn. I just love the paper, makes for such a sweet little teapot. I don't have a clue to how you made this, but I'm no McGyver! Love it and you for being so thoughtful and clever. Creative and wholehearted, that's what you are. Happy Anniversary Cindy! Isn't our MariLynn DA BOMB!
