The very first Christmas set I purchased from Waltzingmouse was the Nutcracker Sweet! Sorry, no matching dies for this one - but don't forget all the label sets that are made to fit perfectly inside a Spellbinders die. Does this card look familiar? I updated the original that I made a few years ago. I think this one looks a little cleaner - I know the stamps are lined up better too! HAHA!! How many sets do you think I used on this one? You'll have to check the supply list to see if you're right!
My second project features the new Folk Art Christmas Additions set. You are going to love
how clean and easy these are to stamp. There are four solid stamp images with lots of intricate cut "folk art" details. There is a reindeer, ornament, bell, and dove with matching sentiments. Lynn Mercurio, Edna Morrisedie, Renee Lynch, Kelly Schirmer, Tosha Leyendekker,
Becca Feeken, Anya Schrier, Jennifer Holmes, Karin Åkesdotter, Sandie Dunne, Kim Duran
Teresa Kline, Julia Aston, Iwona Palamountain, Jen Cuthbertson, Claire Brennan
Thanks for stopping by! I hope I see you tomorrow for more Waltzingmouse goodness! How's this for a teaser... tomorrow it's all about TAGS! See you then!
