This week the teapotters are sending cards of encouragement to Melanie, who is a friend of Faye's (FayeMakesCards). Melanie likes teapots so I hope she likes receiving this. I popped up the panel with fun foam. I diluted stickles with water and painted some on the steam/flowers coming out of the teapot.

Shirl this is gorgeous! You did have the perfect paper for this teaparty! I adore your little stamp detail at the corner and the glittery stream of tea. That pink bg paper is so pretty, too!

This is another piece of art and needs to go in a frame on her wall...wouldn't surprise me if she does that!
I didn't know that stickles could be diluted with water, I've always thought stickles are too thick. Thanks for participating in Melanie's Tea Party.

Even if somone was not partial to teapots, they would surely luv to receive this sweet card! Did not not you could add water to stickles to thin it out - thanks for sharing that info.
