Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge 88

Here's a great sketch that I thought would be quick and fun to do.

Well, quick turned into a bit longer than I thought.  I get these images of what I want to try and do in my head, but it just doesn't come out on paper that way.  So, I tried to go with something simple...yeah ok.  What in my world is ever simple.  This also quite a bit larger than I thought it would be so that I could fit it all in.  Hope you like it.  (P.S. figured I get the Christmas Challenge started, two birds with one card LOL)


I used images from Sewing Box Christmas to stamp on the white PTI cardstock, then stamped the white snowflakes on more Tim Holtz distressed paper.  The diamonds were created using the Frame It 1 die from PTI and popped up with dimensionals.  The sentiment is from Say It Loud Winter (I just love how big the words are).

I'm so glad that I found Waltzingmouse through a friend, I really love the products.

Till next time....it's in the 60's here so it's hard to keep thinking about Christmas.  Who would have thought in Mid March it would feel like May weather in upstate NY.  Hope it's nice out wherever you may be!

Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #2

Ok so it's really sketch challenge #86.  For me it's only the second one.  I think it took me about 4 hours to make this card....who knew you'd get so wrapped up in this!!  I think it came out fairly cute, but not always sure I have the creative juices to make it look right.  Oh well, at least it's fun right?

I bought a magazine recently had a free stamp set with it.  I just couldn't resist using the mouse and stamping his shirt with a pattern from Nordic Winter.  I also colored him in with Tim Holtz Distress Inks.

Till next time!
