Hi stampers! Thursday is upon us yet again and that means it's time for a Create with Connie and Mary color challenge!
To help me create my card this week, I also took inspiration from the sketch at In{k}spire Me #240.
The sketch is square, so my card base measures 5" x 5". I also made an envelope to go with it and lined it with some cute, flowered Watermelon Wonder DSP.
More of my inspiration came from a picture I had seen on Pinterest of flowers potted in a watering can. I got to thinking I could mimic it, only use the cute teapot from Cups and Kettles framelits.
I heat embossed a sentiment from {Party Pants} in white directly onto the tea kettle.
I needed a smaller flower to fit the size of the teapot, so I used the{Petite Petals} stamp set and punch. The leaves are from the Owl Builder punch and the center of the flower come from the retired Itty Bitty Punch Pack.
I again got some great use out of my new favorite DSP, Farmers Market. Isn't that weathered wood paper just cool!?! I LOVE it!
The ribbon is a bit of Watermelon Wonder stitched satin ribbon that I cut in half length-wise. It is too wide otherwise.
I added a some stamping to the Soft Suede cardbase using the feather-looking stamp from {Botanical Blooms}.
Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

This is so CUTE! I love the idea of flowers in a teapot! Great card!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of flowers in a teapot too - so clever! I love the paper you used for your tea pot too - it makes it look like one of those old fashioned metal ones, looks great with the wood background and allows those bright flowers to pop!
ReplyDeleteI got the framelits, but not the stamp set for the teapot/cups. I love seeing ideas for the dies! My mother used to always plant little blue flowers in her teapot on the deck...funny how I never thought of doing that! Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet the teapot is as a flowerpot! This is a must-CASE for me!
