Here's a little teapot card I've just hand-drawn in Illustrator and converted to GSD. Cut the card out first, then cut out the embellishments in contrasting paper or card and assemble using 3d foam pads.
Hope it cuts OK for you.

This cuts out well- used it for a graduation card - something along the lines of A toast to your success - card in dark green carstock, gold label,white insert and a couple of peel off glasses with gems as bubbles etc. I remember it well as the lady who ordered it gave me the wrong name and I had to redo the insert
( which had been applied with ds tape) and stick red ribbon diagonally over the damaged bits!!!

Sadly cannot do a screen shot as this stupid lappy does not have screen shot button.
I am very proud of this 1st naive attempt.
I did have to send it to cut twice, but thought it could be converted into a shaker card.
please let me know how I am doing :rolleyes:
If anyone will kindly make a screen shot while I sort that out please feel free
Hi well done heres the screen shot as well
A friend on another forum had a cupcake shaped card that she had made herself.I adapted it for the Robo with her permission.
I've just quickly decorated it to show the effect.If I had taken more time it might have looked a bit better.It also gave me the opportunity to try using the pen to do the greeting.
Again it's a fairly basic template from me as I'm still learning.
Hope it's of some use to someone.It could be adapted for many occasions.It cut fine apart from a few groans :( at some of the turns.Please feel free to adapt it or improve it.
Cass :)
one for the boys, sorry you'll have to bend your head to see picture, i know if I try to turn it I'm gonna end up with a poster!!!

:lol: beware of too much of a good thing hic hic hic:lol:
This fits fine :)
another simple card to decorate as you wish.
sorry for the screen shot I seem to be having problems with pic size but it cuts beautifully, I promise
I sent the cake case through a cuttlebug embossing folder before sticking all tog.
Tea Pot and Tea cups- separate cards.
These are self standing cards that fit A2 envelopes.
Both the Tea Pot and Hot Chocolate Pot look best in a larger envelope 5x7.
My Grandfather Elias Howard sold from his Tea Wagon pulled by his horse "Nel". Imagine having to get a Horse ready before going to work? The serious thought scares me.
Grandfather would give out Coffee samples to clients hoping to encourage them to drink Coffee as well as fine teas.
The image on these separate cards- of the three girls having a Tea Party was sent as an advertisement from Duryea Company in the 1800's.
Hope you like them,

This is the matching Hot Chocolate Pot to the Victorian Style Tea Set.
Also, a picture for a separate matching Tea Bag cover - meant to put a secret inspirational message inside.
---
Make with recycled paper for a textured look.
Time to enjoy the finer things in life and slow down a little.
- with a cup of Tea -
The front of the Tea bag holder:
"A secret message
Inside for you,
To help your day,
before it's through.
TEA "
Back cover of the Tea Bag cover:
" TEA
Tea for you
makes life more fun,
Always before
a day is done.
Take head to the message,
There's meaning within,
To help with the day
And give you a grin."
These short poems are by me as I hold the copyright to them.
As you open the front lid of the Tea bag cover, there are 2 inspirational sayings- one by mark Twain and the other by Bruckmeister Fuller.
Paper suggestion: It is great to use recycled paper for these dainty Tea Bag covers. They are a nice conversation piece along with helping the environment.
The illustration of the 3 girls having a Tea party was distributed in the 1800's by Duryea Company as an Advertisement promotion.
Please come for Tea, as I am in here all the time, Second floor, first door on the right.

I took Sugarplum up on her suggestions to add a cream and sugar bowl to the Victorian Tea Set- and a spoon rest with gold gilding 18kt gold leaf.
I thought we were not allowed to add a photo within, and instead folks would know to go to out albums.
Thanks for your cute note 'or someplace secret'
This is an addition to my Tea Set ~Victorian Style.
I designed this Tea Cakes Stand thanks to silverest170 Tina for suggesting to add it with loads of Cream Cakes.
The image of the 3 girls having a Tea Party is from an ad sent as a promotion by Duryea Company in the 1800's.
Tureen with Ladle -Victorian Style -matches Tea Set
Thanks to ValeriePalmer's suggestion to design this.
I am sending the original off to my Mother-in-Law who turns 90 this year.
The ladle is doubled up leaving the inside for a secret, happy, inspirational message.
can't believe that there is not a wine bottle card in the template section, well if there is and someone finds it we have 2 now LOL
You can have any flavour you like ......
This is my version of a cupcake card seen on one of the shopping channels
