This week's teapot challenge we are doing everything English! What could be more English/British than teapots! I think this is the very first time I used this stamp from this very old SU set. I also made a 3x6 card which I rarely do. But it seemed to be the perfect size for this border stamp. I also thought this dp looked like an English garden and the border punch a fancy fence top. Pulled most of the colors from the dp and added a few more to make the teapots interesting. This card is now off to Florida!! TFL..............

I have always loved this border stamp but haven't used it in a long time. You have inspired and motivated me. The punched border adds another element of interest.
