A Monkey Teapot and Falling RED Maple Leaves

For the MMTPT169 challenge today, we were to make a teapot with a King Kong theme.  I swear, these challenges get wilder all the time! Isn't it fun???  I posted a pic within a pic so you could see the top lifts up, and the card itself opens as well.  This will go to one of the teapotters as a "Tickle".

Below is my CC card.  The dessert feature today was dry embossing.  I used Mark's Finest Papers new little set, It's Fall Mini.  the embossing is Tim Holtz.  Hope you like these.
