Waltzingmouse Stamps – May Releases – Preview Day 3


Hi there blog friends, happy Monday!!  I’m back with another of the new releases with Waltzingmouse Stamps – this one is called Compact Sentiments Part 2.  This has sure been a week of bling for me and today is no different.   I was so tickled with this sentiment that I really put it front and center and built everything around it.  I wanted texture in the mix so I used Spellbinders™ Mystic (Side B) M-Bossibilities.  I stamped my sentiment on a panel cut using Spellbinders™ Classic Rectangles LG backed by Spellbinders™ Romantic Rectangles.  I picked the elegant background from Waltzingmouse Stamps called French Country set to create a cross panel; after a big bow and Prima flowers, I finished up with two pearl pics and some Recollections bling.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps – Compact Sentiments Part 2, French Country
Paper: Coredinations, The Paper Company
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Colorbox Chalk Ink – Chestnut Roan
Accessories:   Spellbinders™ Classic Rectangles LG,  Spellbinders™ Romantic RectanglesSpellbinders™ Mystic (Side B) M-Bossibilities, Recollections Bling, seam binding, pearl pics

  • Ann robbinsMay 7, 2012 - 6:32 am

    I have one of the flourishes you used and now I know what I am going to use it for. I am also going to start using the seam binding ~ don’t know if it is cheaper than ribbon or not. El cheapo here!! I buy so much have to watch my pennies (lol). Beautiful card as usual! Nice way to start my busy Monday with an email from Becca! Love Amazing Paper Grace!!!!!!

    Thank you for showing caps on the business ends of the straight pins you used! I’ve seen the pins used in many, many cards – but this is the first time I’ve seen the caps for the pointed ends. Your tutorials are wonderful and so easy to follow, and your creations are lovely!ReplyCancel

    OH how beautiful!ReplyCancel

  • Charlotte Schleue ZweigoronMay 7, 2012 - 10:07 am

    Oh, so pretty, Becca! I am starting to get into these textured backgrounds and I think it is partly your inspiration! I was scouring my Card Maker magazine for every little tidbit of an idea I could find when, suddenly, I looked at the back cover and saw a card that I was SURE had to be a Becca!! And, I was right! Down in little black letters was “Becca Feeken” right by the blue and white beauty. I thought I remembered seeing it on your website, too. In fact, I see your creations in a lot of places and, like the fine china pieces I collect, I recognize your style immediately! TFS your marvelous talent.ReplyCancel

  • ChelseaMay 7, 2012 - 10:20 am

  • Renee LMay 7, 2012 - 1:31 pm

    Beautiful!
    And since it has the word “oodles”…
    you know this is destined to be my all time favorite sentiment! :)ReplyCancel

  • Pattie JnsMay 7, 2012 - 1:43 pm

    these are colors, I don’t normally think of except for layers. But your inspiration has given me and new look. Beautifully done………have a good day…….hugs and blessingsReplyCancel

  • Cathy MonroeMay 7, 2012 - 1:48 pm

    This is my first time adding a comment but I am a big fan of your work. I have been checking out your blog each day(added as a favorite) and am disappointed when I don’t see a creation posted(love the calendar idea to check if there is a post). You are “one talented lady.” I also clicked on the other blogs listed for the Waltzingmouse May releases(more talent). For some reason, when I click on Jennifer Holmes, it sends me to a Website suggestion page. Thanks…Keep up the good work.ReplyCancel

  • Troy LouiseMay 7, 2012 - 3:03 pm

    Very pretty card Becca, love the texture from the embossing and the colors chosen are just lovely. You always amaze us with your style of card making. Nice work Becca. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-DReplyCancel

  • janeyMay 7, 2012 - 5:40 pm

    Becca – I love your color combinations….and the bling is so not bling as much as it is just ‘earthy’ (at least in the picture I see on my computer).

    Thank you so much for sharing with us, Becca!

    hugsReplyCancel

  • LauraMay 8, 2012 - 3:41 am

    What a lovely card! Reminds me of a cosy, rainy day tucked up inside by a heater.
    Does anyone know where I could get the Recollection Bling in Australia? (Either to buy here or somewhere overseas that will ship here?) Not having any luck searching!ReplyCancel
