1. Trim pieces of green, lavender and pink card stock to 4-3/4" x 5-3/4".

2. Trim 1/4 inch off of one length of the lavender card stock and 1/2 inch off one length of the green card stock.

3. Holding the left edges together, carefully tear the right side of each piece, making the lavender piece just slightly smaller than the pink and the green just slightly smaller than the lavender (figure A).

4. Cut a 1-1/2" x 5-3/4" strip of the lavender flower textured paper. Fold this piece over the left side of all layers, punch three 3 holes through all layers, and secure with the Bradletz (see again figure A).

5. Punch teapot spout, handle, base and bottom portion of lid using the pink swirl paper. Punch teapot middle and round top of lid from lavender flower textured paper. Punch piece of lid from green with lavender polka dots.

6. Assemble all pieces together (figure B) and adhere to booklet front. Attach Changlz charm with ribbon, and write "Mom" on bottom right corner.

7. Punch four teacups/saucers (figure C), four hearts and four tags using various papers from the Provo Craft mini scraps pastels.

8. Assemble teacups onto each page, adhering all pieces but leaving the center of the cup and top edge open for tags to slide in.

9. Punch a hole on each heart and attach a tag to each using a 2- to 3-inch piece of thin jute. Print coupon wording on each tag and tuck into each teacup (figure D).
