More Teapots

Hi All,

Last week I mentioned I would have another post using the

Cottage Cutz Tea Time Border die...and this is it!

When cutting my die last week from glossy card stock,

I used a shim, (which with most Cottage Cutz dies you don't need)

so being a glossy card stock, with the shim, it gave a distressed/crazed

appearance on the image.

Actually kind of cool, but not what I was looking for at that time.

However, the wheels were turning and I set it aside for a later use.

I grabbed some TH Broken China Distress ink and rubbed it 

on and into the cracks (which BTW you can see better IRL).

I then decided to cut it in half, popped each half up,

added a tiny pearl to each teapot, sugar bowl top.....

I love the way it turned out!

I embossed a white panel with a doily pattern background

and added a ribbon/bow using once again ribbon from the ribbon club

from RRR.

A little 'hello' tag and a heart button were added to finish!
