It's time for the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge and one of our fun sponsors is back. We've got a fun sponsor to go along with the fun cupcakes. Fresh Brewed Designs is our sponsor. If you're a coffee drinker or want to make a card for a coffee drinker they've got the best images. I am not much of a coffee drinker but most of my good friends are the type of people who can't start the day without a cup and most of them have received a card with a Fresh Brewed image on it. Even if you're not in the least bit interested in coffee there are other nothing to do with coffee images.
For my card I used the Ladybug Teapot image. I happen to love teapots and it's perfect for this week's challenge. The good thing about teapot stamps is I never have to worry about them breaking. I once had a collection of teapots, several of them were on a set of shelves in the kitchen. After we remodeled the kitchen someone who shall remain nameless wanted to surprise me by rehanging the shelves while I was out. Somehow the shelf along with all the teapots on it hit the new tile floor. In case you've never had a tile floor let me tell you that when glass and pottery hits it there is not much chance of survival and the shattered pieces will travel far. Out of a dozen or so teapots one pot and one not matching lid didn't break. It was heartbreaking for me. I still have a few teapots that weren't on that shelf or were gifts after the fall but that fall pretty much knocked the desire to accumulate any more out of me. So I guess in the end it saved me some money. See there's always a bright side...
