Teapot card using Studio Light products
A while back, I created a MDF teapot storage using a wonderful kit from Studio Light at Personal Impressions, (see HERE) but before I stuck the sides together, I quickly drew around the MDF teapot piece to create a matching card. It was then decorated with the remaining papers and embellishments from the kit.
Here is a quick tutorial explaining how I created my shaped card ...
Step 3:
Adding some lace and ribbon to the front of your card and place the tag at a "jaunty" angle.
It was fab to be able to make a matching card because I now have a complete gift set. Luckily the teapot card fits inside an A5 envelope ... phew!

Here is a quick tutorial explaining how I created my shaped card ...
Step 1: Using
one of the MDF teapot sides, draw around the shape on to the cream
card, twice. Cut our the teapots, covering one with a paper from the
kit. Score the other design as per the photo. Place glue on the handle
upto the score line, (this will form your hinge).
Step 2: Create
a tag slightly bigger than one of the image toppers from the kit; using
the cream card. Punch a hole and add ribbon, distressing the edges of
your tag for an aged look.
Step 4: Using
all the elements from one of the decoupage pieces, create a topper.
Place this on to your card front, covering a portion of the tag.
Step 5: Stamp
the birthday sentiment from the Sweet Dixie Fantasy Floral Border and
Panel set on to a embellishment from the teapot kit. Cut the sentiment
in two and distress the edges.
Step 6: Place the first part of the sentiment on the tag and the other part on top of the ribbon/lace border.
Step 7: Finally, add additional embellishments from the teapot kit.
It was fab to be able to make a matching card because I now have a complete gift set. Luckily the teapot card fits inside an A5 envelope ... phew!
It's been a long week this week and I am very grateful that for once, time marched very quickly to the weekend. Boy oh boy am I looking forward to some chill time.
Have a great weekend and hope you get to "chill" too,
Lou
