1. Wow, another week gone by! Holy cow! Well, last week I told you about the exciting package I received from my friend and fellow SCSer/blogger, Jane (HarrahX2). This is the other little teapot Jane sent me, told you it was blue and white! This little teapot is precious. It is a little mini one. It measures about 6 inches high and it not quite that wide.
2. Guess where I ended up this week being inspired by this new teapot, this mini junior petite precious little thing? I ended up with a ATC or should I say ATP! All I know is that is is small, measures about three inches all the way around. Hey, its not often than my card is smaller than my teapot, especially when the teapot is a mini junior petite precious little thing! Snort!!
3. I figured since we can't all get together in person and have tea in the mid-morning, we might as well make cards together!
4. I have a thing for teapots and as a result have a collection of some really cool ones. This idea started when I made a card for an inspiration challenge where we were to pick something in our house to fashion a card after and of course I picked a teapot. It was a giraffe teapot and the card I made a card I sent it to a fellow SCSer that collects giraffes!
5. I plan on posting a teapot on my blog every Tuesday and making a card inspired by that teapot. There are no rules, no requirements, no deadlines just take a look at the teapot and join me in the fun!

Cindy, you are so good at this, your cards always look like the tea pot. Now if I tried I'm sure it would not be recognizeable......love this.

okay.......first...of course your teapot and card are fabulous.....I tell you that every week....so this week I decided I needed to ask a question.......does a person who collects teapots REALLY like tea??????...or is it just a sham to have these fabulous pots?????
