Need a Cuppa? Card.

I think I am starting to get an addiction to the Simon Says Monday challenge.  I don't have time to do five items but I am enjoying getting my card collection going.  Now I have cards ready when I need them instead of scrambling to make one.   The challenge this week is 'It's a mystery'.  So for my 'mystery' item I have used the tin foil found in the top of a new Milo tin.  I wish I could just buy this stuff in bulk instead of waiting for the Milo to be used up so I can buy another tin.  Thankfully my kids go through Milo like its going out of fashion.  In fact Andrew loves Milo so much we are getting a four word sentance out of him!!!  He says "I want Milo please".  Actually it sounds more like "I want Lo pese" but a sentance is a sentance!  Anyway I put a tea set through the cuttlebug using the tin foil, then I embossed the teapot and dabbed brown and red paint on it till I was happy.  I tried to bend the teapot and cup enough to give it dimension and used foam squares to build it up.  Hopefully that is mysterious enough :)
