For my second tea card, I stamped and painted the little teapot and cup onto my teabag from this morning (Tazo Awake English Breakfast--yum!). I used the Mojo Monday sketch, but I wanted to use a doily on the card which was big so I did a little bit of re-engineering the sketch. This morning I used the doily as a coaster while I drank my tea, to give it a little more character. You can see some tea stains if you look really close. This is the same sentiment that I used for the teabag art Inspiration Challenge--I think it's so fun. I sponged one panel with Tea Dye ink and the other panel I colored with Spectrum Noir TB2. For the tag on my teabag, I wanted to use the heart from the Slice of Life set, but I have no idea where it is. How did I lose a whole stamp set? I'm sure it has something to do with one of the little monsters that lives in my house. LOL. Anyway, I had to draw on the heart as close as I could come to the stamp that I was looking for.
So, the funny thing about this challenge is that I generally drink Red Rose tea and right now their little figurines are "Americana". I was excited about getting the "Boston Tea Party" figurine in the new box that I opened this weekend and was trying to explain it to my 3-year-old. Fortunately, he watches "School House Rock" on DVD, and there's a song about it. Anyway, I put the figurine in my photo.
