Here is my card for Teapot Tuesday. Our challenge is to use something given to us by a fellow stamper. What fun! I hoard so many crafty things and that includes the items given to me by other stampers. This challenge forced me to use up some of those lovely items. Gifted to me and included on this card was everything except the green cardstock. The inside sentiment says: "Be strong. You never know who you are inspiring." That too was gifted to me. I have long forgotten who I received most of these items from but I think they pulled together to make a nice card. I decided to make very few purchases this year in an attempt to use up more of my treasures. This decision was totally sabotaged on the weekend when I happened across a yard sale. What can I say - the price was right.

Your crafty friends managed to send you the perfect combo of images and die cuts to make this super fun card. I love the image, the way you colored her, the sentiment. Your layout with the various elements looks fab and I especially like the pop you get from the dp arrow. The inside sentiment is a keeper and something for us all to remember.
I hear you on those "promises". I have failed that one too many times to count...just about every time Penny Black has a new release I think. It's an occupational/craft hazard. LOL. Enjoy your new toys.

So cute and fun. Great job pulling together some treasures to make such a great card. You have a good goal in mind to stop buying as much to use things up. I am doing a similar thing. Wonderful card for Sharon!
