WMS June Blog Waltz

Happy Thursday, friends. The 17th of the month means it is time for the Friends of WMS Blog Waltz. This month, our theme is all about the boys!

To get started, head to the WMS Forum to link up your creation and hop along with the other participants. There is also a thread for chatting about what you've seen and participating in our little contest! The DT members are each hiding an image on their cards. Keep track of their count and a correct guess could win you a stamp set of your choice!

Here is my card - a great opportunity to create something for my dear old Dad for Father's Day!

My Dad is a racing fan, so I wanted to incorporate the race car image from Free Spirit - Boy. Inspired by the sentiment (from Free Spirit - Sentiments), I used the car to create a little 'scene'. I stamped the checkered pattern from Off Beat Backgrounds and finished the card off with my own checkered flags.

Have fun waltzing! Don't forget to head back to the WMS Forum to chat and join the contest.

I hope you enjoy! Have a fantastic day!
