Let's get started right away, shall we? Today I am previewing one of the five new sets being released by Waltzingmouse Stamps this month. I will warn you now as you are going to hear this a lot from me over the next few days - but I'm head over heels!
Say hello to Half-Pint Heroes, a whimsical and adorable set full of fun-to-color images perfect for the boys in your life! The set contains a few different 'vehicles' and the little guys to go in them! It is also loaded with sentiments and accessories. For my first card, I used the submarine. Ok, how stinkin' cute is that?! I created a little scene of an underwater explorer that looks amazingly like my husband (see, it can be for your big boys, too)! Deep below the sea in his yellow submarine (I had to!), he's peering through his acetate window and chatting with a fish!*Lots* of dimension on this one, here's a close up.
I had so much fun making that card, I had to make another!
Does it get any cuter than that? I used Distress Inks to create a background reminiscent of outer space and then added some stars and a few planets. The rocket ship was embossed in silver and then colored with Copics. My little astronaut is keeping an eye out the window as he heads off into space.So that's just Day 1! There are still four more sets to knock your socks off!
The entire Design Team is participating in the previews this month, so be sure to check them out and see what they have been up to! I can't wait!

ReplyDeleteanya - did you watch "Despirable Me" and Anges goes "IT"S SOOO FLUUUUUFFFY" when she gets her unicorn horse? I feel like Anges "THAAAAT'S SO STIIIIIINKIN' CUTE" - and that was my reaction after i saw the first card.
