I feel like I have almost forgotten what life was like without my digital die cutter! This gorgeous project is called Tea For You And Me and comes from SVG Cuts. There's a lot of pieces that come together, but it's pretty straight forward and Mary at SVG Cuts always does a fantastic step by step video tutorial to take out the guesswork. Once the machine had done all the cutting I sat and watched a movie while I glued the pieces together, and by the end of the film it was done.
The teapot measures just over 6" tall and lid comes off to reveal a spacious cavity inside that could be used for holding teabags or loose tea. I think it would also make a fabulous potpourri holder.
The teapot base is made from plain manila folder cardstock, inked up with Tea Stain Distress Ink. The pattern paper overlay is from the Sweet Nothings collection by Kaisercraft, and the lace and ribbon trim came from my local haberdashery store, hand dyed with distress inks.
As usual, sharing this with the fabulous folks at Make It Monday, where it's always anything goes :o)
