This is my sample for CC865, I am your hostess this week and I chose cinammon cider, polished pink and coastal cabana for the color trio. Dessert option this week is anything goes.
I chose 2 additional colors for my dessert- misty moonlight and so saffron. I used those colors for the teapot windows.
This is a new Christmas die from CottageCutz - Gingerbread Teapot. I just thought it was so cute and chose my colors this week based on this teapot image.
The background paper is from the Stampin'-Up "peaceful place" collection. I thought it provided a woodsy backdrop for the teapot house with the silver trees and the bottom a snow covered ground.
My sentiment is cut in polished pink and is part of the Season's Greetings w/Snowflakes die from CottageCutz.
Hope you can play along with us this week. I would love to see what you do with the colors. The DT will have lots of inspiration with their samples.

What a fun "gingerbread" teapot house. Hopefully Hanzel and Gretel won't stumble on this or they will most certainly nibble it down, Love the gumdrops embellishments. That bg paper is gorgeous and the snowy forest is a perfect setting for this warm, cozy home. Adorable card.

Cider color is perfect for gingerbread. Makes me hungry for a soft cookie.
