Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Stamps new release blog hop!
If you're hopping along with us, you should have come here by way of Lynn's blog. If you just happened to stop in, the fun starts with Claire on the Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog.
Prizes are also up for grabs for two lucky commenters! One winner will be randomly chosen from the comments left on one of the Design Team Members' blogs, the other will be chosen from the comments left on the Waltzingmouse Stamps blog. So let us know what you think of the new release!
For the past few days, I have been previewing Roses In Bloom; but today I thought I would share something using another new set, Very Vintage Labels No. 3.
Something a little different.. I used one of the smaller labels to create a simple patterned background. The little circle is also included in the Labels 3 set.
The sentiment is a mush of a few different words from the Little Box Labels set. I kept everything else simple, rounding the bottom corners and adding some silver brads. I thought we might all be able to use some man card ideas! I don't know about you, but I struggle!
So here's a recap.. three new sets are being released this month: Roses In Bloom, Very Vintage Labels No. 3, and Nestie Eggs. Digital papers are also a new addition to the store. They will be available this month in three patterns: Celtic Lunettes, Celtic Squares, and Victoriana. We also have an incredible guest, Jak Heath hopping along with us and a fun announcement - WMS is opening its own forum!
Your next stop along the hop is Bonnie. Don't forget about the prizes!
Have a great day, and thanks for stopping by!
