For Teapot Tuesday's challenge to feature anything British. I also used this week's colours...black, Baja breeze, Calypso coral.
I bought a doily stamp set about two months ago, and hadn't inked them up yet, so was very eager to do so. I stamped the largest one with versamark on white cardstock and also several times on the patterned paper. Then embossed with white ep. I fussy cut the ones on patterned paper and used them in the opposite corners. The London image is by Penny Black, stamped on patterned paper. I punched out butterflies and lots of little flowers and added them here and there on the card.

This is great! The colors compliment your image of the London Eye beautifully. I can't help thinking of my neighbor who's house I am watching-
she's visiting family in London.

How wonderfully pretty and delicate, Ina. I must say that the PB London stamp is much more authentic than the Paris one, which I have but it niggles me that it's not really true Paris. Good idea to stamp it on the patterned paper and save a lot of fussy colouring!!

So lovely, Ina! Your fussy cutting is awesome and I always enjoy a card with shininess on it! Great job with the color challenge and Teapot challenge as well~
