SCS Teapot Challenge

 Hi there!

Today’s card is inspired from the current Tuesday Teapot Challenge at Splitcoast Stampers (MMTPT899).   Every Tuesday, a new teapot is posted to get those creative juices flowing.   Teapot Tuesday Challenge Link

I loved The neutral colors of the small teapot on the right.  The simple lines on the leaves sparked my creativity into this card.  

This card is a side folding card, measuring 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches.  I really liked the neutral colors of the teapot, so I chose kraft cardstock (Recollections).  

The stamp used is from Unity’s Kit Of The Month : May 2022 One Friend.  Shop here : Unity One Friend KOM

The lines of the leaves really drew me in.  I chose the slightly larger image, so I could add color to the leaves with pencils.  

I stamped the image on a platform with a piece of kraft cardstock measuring 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I used Tip Top Taupe from Stampin Up, for a tone on tone color.

Then I used three prisma color pencils: Canary Yellow, Mineral Orange, and Pale Vermilion.

I liked the dot detailing on the lid of the teapot, so to incorporate this detail, I cut the panel with a dotted rectangular frame.  

The sentiment “Paper Hugs” from Unity’s Olive Branch stamp set was stamped on to a strip in Espresso Brown Ink (Stampin Up).  Shop here : Unity Olive Branch

To finish the card, three small iridescent gems were added to the panel (SU).
