Here's my card for today's Teapot Tuesday Challenge - This week our cards are going postal to Hunter Renz who is celebrating his 12th b'day - his first b'day without his loving mother - fellow stamper Katie Renz.
Hunter loves Harry Potter -
now I have to interject here - I'm a teapot cheater - I get an early e-mail from our fearless leader Cindy - and I missed the whole part about making your card from the perspective of Harry's glasses - ie two circles.....
So I happily went on my card creating way and used my 'official' Harry Potter stamp (that I got at Barnes and Noble after the very first Harry Potter Movie came out many moons ago) to make this card for Hunter.
So - I'll say that Harry's glasses are the circles we are looking through!!! Does that work???!!!

I did the same thing. So I made another. Love your card, and Hunter will too. I like the way you added his name. I meant to do that but somehow forgot too.

Ha ha! No worries girlfriend! You have one lens there! We just gotta find the other, some teapotter probably stepped on it and the cracked glass is so cool lookin' its become a wonderful embellishment! Ha!
I love this, what a great image, what a great card...love that its so personalized for Hunter.....who'd a thunk when you bought that stamp that there would be such success with these movies! Amazing! Your card rocks!

Well, aren't you lucky to have an actual Harry Potter stamp! Sure makes for an awesome card, and one that Hunter will LOVE, especially since it's personalized just for him!
