I attended a meeting of a stampers group here in The Villages yesterday. The project was a tea dispenser. I decided to use this project for the PPA Color Challenge.
I used the teapot from the Have a Cuppa Embellishments (also in the Occasions catalog) as the knob on top of the lid. I just hot-glued it on.
The instructions were adapted from Splitcoaststampers.
The original instructions used 12 x 12 card stock so I tweaked it a
little more to use 8-1/2 x 11 since I wanted the base of my project to be Lost
Lagoon. (NOTE: I have added a tutorial for this dispenser to my blog. CLICK HERE to see how to make this.)
What a fun day and a fun project.

OMGosh! This is absolutely FANTASTIC! So much so that I have already pinned it to 3 different boards!! Carol, you have created a work of art and such a lovely home decor or gift item! Thanks so much for sharing this and especially with my color challenge for this week's PPA. Certainly hope that you play again next week when it is the sketch team's turn!!
