You know those cards that just come together so easily?
This wasn't one of those!
I had a totally different bit of DP for the backing but after I coloured the teapot it just didn't look right, but then happily I came across exactly the right piece of gingham instead!
Then I had this idea for some bunting...nice idea but it took a while to get it how I wanted of course!
None of my stamp sentiments seemed to look right so I generated one on the computer :-)
It still looked a little plain so I popped on a few flowers...and there's my 3 of something!
After all that I absolutely love the finished result but then it is pink and green which is one of my fave colour combos :-)
And I *really* love bunting!
