I’m thrilled to be waltzing along with Claire from Waltzingmouse Stamps this month. Her Nestabilities-friendly stamps are what first drew me to her store, as you can see on this card. The birthday sentiment by Verve Stamps was framed with a gorgeous design that is a perfect match for one a Labels One die-cut.
This month’s blog waltz theme is the colors of summer… blue and green. I had just the right DSP to make an elegant card for my mother-in-law, who celebrates her birthday next week.
Thanks for stopping by!

Inderdaad leuk om eens iets in het Nederlands te kunnen schrijven!
Het achtergrond papier past inderdaad PERFECT bij de vorm en kleur van de rest. Toch leuk als alle puzzelstukjes ineenpassen hé.
