Waltzingmouse Fanatic
I’m a big fan of Waltzingmouse Stamps, and I have been meaning to join the Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge ever since they got started. Their first challenge in this new year is a color challenge, which I combined with this week’s sketch challenge on SCS (SC469).

Even though WMS stamps are clear, I still like using my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to try and place all images on the paper just right. The circle image on the sentiment panel was stamped on a scalloped circle die-cut. Afterwards I used a brown marker to color the tips of the scallops that were still showing the tan card stock, and I also went around the edge of the die-cut for a cleaner finish.

Thanks for stopping by!

    Vera, I can’t believe you colored each scallop, if I read it right. That is beautiful and quite amazing!

    Well I’m so please you decided to join in the fun at the Waltzingmouse Fanatics! Your card for our colour challenge is just beautiful. The use of the stampamajig really pays off on the layout.
