Care for some tea?

I knew when I saw the sweet little Teapot Mouse from the Carmen Medlin for SCACD Reflections #1 release that I wanted to create something "tea" themed. I was thrilled when I found this little teabag holder tutorial on SCS! 


Another super easy project! I goofed a tad but it was easily fixed, whew!

This cutie Teapot Mouse really just melts my heart. I don't know why but it reminds me of my Grandma. I just smile when I see it. I paper pieced her sweet dress. For her little teapot I used Snickerdoodle Smooch and the flowers all have touches of stickles on their centers. To finish it I just add a few Kaisercraft Pearls. I am pleased with how this turned out and think it would make a cute little giftie for someone!







supplies:
New Basic Grey is in at SCACD too!! Curio and Marjolaine!! Lots more fun stuff on it's way!!

ooo how cute! I love making these little t-bag holders and often size them up to take something a bit bigger - chocolate or stamped images perhaps!
