WMS PJ Party Gift Tag

More Waltzingmouse Pajama Partying and I'm still dotty about glitter paste, but I've used gold this time. This is a fun tag for a bride to be with a little fiesta fringe in ombre pink and glitter, of course! I used some partial diecutting and a trimmer to make the large tag and distress markers and promarkers to colour the images.

Using watercolour cardstock left me with the dilemma of how to colour a white dress when the cardstock has a cream tone. I've used Old Paper and Weathered Wood to create some shadows and give the illusion of a white dress, the blue background wash and distress inking help enhance this. Clear Wink of Stella gives a subtle shine to the dress.

WMS April PJ Party

I've created a gift card card for a new arrival for the Waltzingmouse Stamps Pajama Party Challenge #2. I'm addicted to glitter paste so I've covered the card base in dimensional silver glitter polka dots and used vellum for the next layer because I couldn't bear to cover them up or the stamping on the gift card. The sentiment is embossed with liquid platinum adding to the dimension.

Poor lighting conditions as I sought out the last of the sun's rays in the garden for my photography session. Lots of shadows, but I hope you can get the gist!

WMS Bedtime Story Sketch #8

 I've used the Waltzingmouse Bedtime Story Sketch #8 for this card to create a little snowy Christmas scene featuring the Milky Way and Northern Lights. The pine forest was built up using second generation stamping all along the curve of the stitch hillside snow drifts.

The Milky Way is white heat embossed and highlighted with distress ink to mimic the Aurora Borealis. The background is misted with glimmer mist for extra festive shine and I've used the Falling Snow Stencil from Simon Says Stamp with pearlescent embossing paste around the aperture.

I've taken a few photos at different angles at allow the shimmer and shine to be seen and finally a close up of the stamping.

I've made a project using my oldest Waltzingmouse Christmas set, though it's much more than just a Christmas set. This is one of the first sets from Waltzingmouse Stamps that I came across when I first started stamping. I just love it [in case you haven't guessed by my recent posts!] and keep coming back to it time and time again.

I've trimmed the trees with liquid platinum embossing powder and the stars have been coated in layers of it giving them great dimension. The edges of each of the squares are inked in silver to soften them and they are evenly positioned on a rectangle of silver mirror card. I've masked the sentiments so that I could stamp them side by side and mix up the greetings. I've round the bottom corners of the card base to mirror the rounded tree bottoms and the curved edges of the cakes in the photo inspiration.

I've used the photo inspiration from the Fusion Card Challenge for my colour choices and the three trees represent the three layers of cake. Subconsciously I incorporated the rectangle element of the sketch in the card design too.

I love this textured cardstock, it always puts me in mind of the linens I used to embroider in my teens. I've used the tree tops from Teeny Trees as my embroidery pattern, I think it looks like lots of french knots. After heat embossing and distress inking I used my envelope maker to create this box. The perfect wrapping for a special gift.

Waltzingmouse Stamps Teeny Trees transformed to a Scandinavian Christmas! I've white heat embossed repeating patterns on red card stock, cut it into strips and created a Christmas tree. My favourite is the teeniest tree turned into a row of the knit stitch. I've used white embossing paste stencilled through Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow, then glittered it for a little festive shimmer.

I've concentrated on one main visual element for the tag to keep it as CAS as possible. This tag is great for mass production as I stamped lines of the repeating images and can use the cut offs to make a few more tags.

On the back I've restamped the stitched tag stamp from Lawn Fawn and the sentiments from Teeny Trees.
