Well, this has been a card that almost didn't make it! First, I lost my image as I was preparing to assemble... so had to stamp again; then I misplaced my glasses; misplaced my circle dies; then had computer problems and couldn't get online... I'm afraid to start making another card...
Anyway, this week we're making cards for fellow teapot partiers... SO... I decided to make a true teapot card. I used Leigh Grady's adorable swimming image and colored with Copics; I then used the Teapot Die from Papertrey Ink and stamped with ColorBox Fluid Chalk; added gems to flowers...

Glad you managed to get through all the obstacles you had on the way of making this card. Because it was well worth all your effort. And it's PINK (My favorite color) Nicely done!

Wow, Linda, for all the trials you went through to get this card done, I am SO glad you were able to upload it - such a cute card and adding the teapot just made it so perfect! Love those gems in the middle of your flowers too - very prim and proper for the Tea Potter's party - as soon as you finish your synchronized swim, that is!! TFS! Love it!
