Teapot Magnet - Lawn Fawn StitchedTeapot

Used Lawn Fawn Stitched Teapot to make this magnet. Cut 2 layers (for sturdiness) of everything from white except for tea bag & squiggle piece that tea bag would be attached to. Cut 1 layer of solid and/or pattern paper for top layer. Cut 2 pieces of vellum for tea bag, attached the squiggly piece of cardstock and stapled. Recycled a magnet that I was not keeping, cut the magnet into pieces (used 2, 1 was not enough to hold the teapot with all the layers) on the refrigerator.
