It’s Teapot Tuesday & our challenge today is to bring “something Molly Brown” to replace JJ’s chickens. Confused? Check this out: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I’ve brought this embossed “velvet” purse. This is my 1st attempt at paper piecing & I’m quite satisfied with the results. I used the swirls cuttlebug embossing folder on the “velvet” paper, used “halo” gold embossing powder on gold paper & added a couple of gems for the clasp. The fold is along the bottom edge.
My son just announced his engagement & this small (3”x4”) card will accompany a congratulatory gift I bought for my beautiful future daughter-in-law.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You are gonna be a mother-in-law! Whoo hoo! Well, I would say you are starting off on the right foot with your son's fiance.....she will love this little gem! It is so awesome, the swirly cuttlebuggin' is perfection and I can only imagine how wonderful it looks in real life on the velvety paper! What a fun and creative idea!
It's most definately Molly inspired.....is your daughter in law to be's name Molly??? Naw, I didn't think so, what are the odds of that? Tea hee!

CONGRATULATIONS! What a lovely little card to give your future daughter-in-law! Is she a stamper? Not yet? I am sure she will love learning and you will be the perfect teacher! Have FUN with that! Perfect for the teaparty too!

Congratulations to the future mother of the groom. I can't wait to see the wedding favors and invitations and everything else they will ask you to paper craft once your future daughter in law sees how clever you are!
