I'm a little tea pot short and stout card made with Birthday cake cricut cartridge

Hello, everyone! Today I have a birthday card that I made using the new Birthday Cake cartridge.

When I saw that little teapot I knew I was going to use it at some point. I just love the entire tea party theme that a potion of this cartridge has!



The paper is October Afternoon and Core'dinations. The sentiment and ribbon is papertrey ink.

Joy and I are giving away a Cricut Expression over at Everyday Cricut. Make sure you sign up as a follower over there and leave a comment on ==>this<== post
Have a wonderful weekend!

OMgosh!!! How did you know I needed to find a design like this? I'm serious - I've got a wedding shower to prepare for and this would make a great invitation. All I need to do is find a cut file to make a teapot purse thingee. Got any ideas? (hint, hint) By the way, my name on ustream is shortcropper, but on here, it's shortscrapper.

The thought never even crossed my mind that I would be needing the Cake cartridges UNTIL you and Joy got your hands on them! lol

Very cute teapot and card!
