Steampunk Wedding Card

Recently, I was invited to a steampunk wedding, and I really wanted to create a card to fit in with the day's theme. Prior to this, I had very little knowledge of anything to do with steampunk, so I did some research, and hopefully the resulting card didn't look too out of place!

I printed the two keys on the front, cut them out and covered them with a thin layer of 3D Clear Gloss Finish.

I added another key to the inside, and raised the steampunk tag slightly (on two strips of thin card) so that a gift card could be slipped underneath.

Note to self: Do more research involving Nathan Fillion as Castle!

Sweet Teapot!

I love this teapot box, and the memories it evokes of the summer just gone...

So, will it be filled with strawberry candy or sweet biscuit treats?

Miniature Teacup Box

Having made so many teapots, of varying colours and patterns, I decided it was time to try to make a teacup box to compliment them. And I found the perfect one - in the shape of the 'A Cuppa' template from Hot Off The Press. The size of the teacup was almost exactly what I wanted, making my teapot look like a one-cup teapot.

However, not satisfied with just creating the normal size teacup, I experimented a bit and reduced the template in size to make a miniature teacup.

I love it! It's so cute, and it kept it's shape perfectly.

Here are the two teacups together, and one with the teapot, to show the difference in size.

Now, what about a miniature teapot...?
