Matching Tea Set

OK, so it was inevitable that this was going to happen ...

Recently, I created this lovely flowery teapot box, and with the leftover cardstock I decided to make a matching teacup (using the 'A Cuppa' template from Hot Off The Press as before).

I adjusted the size of the template again so that it perfectly matched my teapot, and I am really pleased with how they look together.

The teacup fits neatly inside the teapot, so it's double the surprise for anyone who receives this as a gift!

Some more matching sets I have made ...

King Boo Piñata

I made this King Boo piñata for a Super Mario birthday party. It took about three days to make, but was definitely worth the effort.

Here it is together with some other items I made for the party: a paper mache Chain Chomp, a Bob-Bomb and some yellow item boxes.

This short video shows how I made the piñata.

Miniature Teapot Box

And so, as promised, here is my first attempt at creating a miniature teapot box:

I chose a very small patterned paper to make this box, and I'm really pleased with how the pattern joined up on all sides. It's fairly difficult to judge the size of it from this first photograph, but hopefully these next three will help.

Firstly, with one of my 'normal' sized teapot boxes:

And here, with the miniature teacup box I made:

Finally, this one gives a better idea of it's size! I love it! It's so cute! But what small treats could I fill it with?
