Shabby Tea Room #34

I loved this week's inspiration at the Shabby Tea Room blog.  Who wouldn't love red and blue together and all the shapes were wonderful!  I see polka dots, checkerboard, scallops and lots of cute tea cups! What do you see?

I decided to focus on the main colors in the piece, red and blue, and the blue bundt pan (which I wish I had!)  I need to get started on some Christmas tags, so that is also what my focus was.  Here's my tag:


 
I die-cut my tag, blue mat and rik-rak and then ran the tag through again with an impression plate.  After coloring the snowman, I added prisma glitter under the snowman and on the snowflakes.  Then I added glossy accents (which I may be addicted to) to the snowman and let him dry over night.  

Here's a close-up of the little guy:

I stamped the sentiment and inked the edges and put everything together.  It was still missing a little something, so I added the rhinestones at the bottom.  Die cuts make everything easier, don't they?

Thanks for looking!
