Blog friends, this is a quick post just to check to see if Feedblitz, the subscription service I’m using, will pick it up and send it out.  I had a post earlier today and the feed was not sent out to notify you (I’m sad about that).   Hopefully it’s just momentary indigestion and blog post publishing is back to normal.

Thanks so much!! Back again tomorrow with my regularly scheduled post :-)

Baby Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltzingmouse Vintage Baby Shower - www.amazingpapergrace.com
Hiya there sweet friends – three cards to share today.  Yep, count ’em.  Yeah, two of them you would never know I made, but I sure had fun doing it :-)  So today is Day Three of the Waltzingmouse Stamps August Releases.  There were so many sets with this release that you should definitely hop around and have a look see.  For me, first up is a baby shower card using the new Waltzingmouse Vintage Baby Shower set.  It’s a clear stamp set and the detail is absolutely phenomenal.

Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltzingmouse Vintage Baby Shower

I simply stamped the parasol with Memento Ink (there is a die being released, however I fussy cut the parasol) and popped it up on my card.  I have a very classic card base with Spellbinders Grand Decorative Labels One layered with Spellbinders Marvelous Squares.   I rimmed a plain panel and my Marvelous Squares panel with a Krylon Gold Marker that I simply drag around the edge while pressing into the cardstock.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps:  Waltzingmouse Stamps – Vintage Baby Shower (available 8/27)
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Natural White Smooth 80 lb Cardstock, PTI Sweet Blush
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Spellbinders Grand Decorative Labels One, Spellbinders Marvelous Squares, Recollections Pearls, Spare Parts Brad, Hug Snug Seam Binding, Gold Krylon Pen

Friendship Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltzingmouse Hello Happy Thanks - www.amazingpapergrace.com

These watercolor cards were an absolute dream to make!  It’s been years since I messed around with stamping and watercolor but it’s a trend that has come back around :-)  Those of you who have been stamping for a while might remember that for a while we watercolored everything!  These were quick and easy and the watercolor background pairs perfectly with the bold sentiments in the new Waltzingmouse Hello Happy Thanks set.  The hardest part of this adventure was exercising restraint.  I wanted to pop it up, glam it up, ribbon it up and many might even think I’ve gone too far here, but a simple embellishment of Spellbinders Layered Flowers and a pennant cut of ribbon – that’s it.

Friendship Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltzingmouse Hello Happy Thanks - www.amazingpapergrace.com

I made lots of backgrounds and mis-stamped on my favorite one which led me to cutting it out.  I loved the result of popping one background up over another – let’s just call that my happy mistake.  I used Distress Reinkers and placed a dot of each color on my teflon mat and spritzed with water.  Then I misted the top of my watercolor paper  and laid it down on my teflon mat.  When I picked it up, there’s enough water that the paint starts to run down the page.  I spritzed more as needed.  Hows that for easy?  As hard as you may try, no two will come out the same!  I sped up the drying by using my heatgun then trimmed to size.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps:  Waltzingmouse Stamps – Hello Happy Thanks
Paper: Strathmore Watercolor Paper – 140lb, Bazzill, Vellum
Ink: Distress Versafine Onyx Black, Distress Reinkers
Accessories: Recollections Pearls, Spellbinders Layered Flowers, Ribbon

    Good evening Becca,
    The first card is traditional and beautiful. The second more modern and equally gorgeous. I can’t pick which one I like best so will have to do versions of them both!!! Thank you and God Bless xxReplyCancel

  • Deborah FringsAugust 26, 2014 - 6:51 pm

    Love the pretty vintage baby card – the parasol looks fab! And I do like the gorgeous gold frame and fab ribbon. However, my favourites are the watercolour cards – so pretty and the bold sentiment is brilliant! Great work.ReplyCancel

  • Mary KAugust 26, 2014 - 10:09 pm

    You’re right, I never would have guessed that 2 were yours! Cute, but not really my style. Love Waltzingmouse Stamps, classic never goes out of style. Just like you and your beautiful cards, Becca.ReplyCancel

  • MaryannAugust 27, 2014 - 12:30 am

    Oh my goodness these are soooo cute too Becca, even you´re sooo right I would never have gueessed they were made by you if you hadn´t said so. They are very different but just as gorgeous and very very beautiful.ReplyCancel

    Lovely cards, Becca! I really like your “happy accident” where you cut out that panel and layered it. Very cool!ReplyCancel

    Hi Becca
    A beautiful Parasol card loving the soft pink along with the black.
    I have never tried the watercolor technique , it sure looks fun and your two cards are lovely .

    Take Care

  • Norah McPheeAugust 27, 2014 - 3:08 am

    Good morning Becca,
    I love you bay shower invite but i am surprised that you have done a black umbrella/parasol as i think that you i have come to expect would have done it in a white or pink embossing, fussy cutting it so that it was an individual item on its own and put lace around the bottom of the circumference of it.See where you have got my mind wandering off to with all your beautiful creations…dream land. Thank you for your inspiration,
    Love and crafty hugs

    The black parasol really pops out against the pink. So stylish!

Baby Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltingmouse Little Darlings - www.amazingpapergrace.com
Hi there sweet friends!  Today is Day 2 of previews with Waltzingmouse Stamps.  I’m swooning over the new baby sets and couldn’t wait to get them inky.  And, is there any better excuse to pull out pink?  Yep, did someone say pink?  I wanted an elegant card that was fairly simple.  The large lace does the work of a background and then I tied a bow on because you can’t have an elegant baby card without a bow right?

Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltingmouse Little Darlings - www.amazingpapergrace.com

I double stamped each image, once with blush and once with birch ink because I wanted the image to be soft and have pink undertones.  The basket was stamped on the Waltzingmouse Stitched Tags Die Set while the sentiment was stamped on the small pennant tag in the Waltzingmouse Folding Tag Die Set and I smudged the edges with Blush Ink using a dauber.  Peeking out from the back of my tag is teeny tiny picot edge using the Waltzingmouse Picot Edge Die.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps:  Waltzingmouse Stamps – Little Darlings
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Natural White Smooth 80 lb Cardstock,
Ink: Fresh Inks – Birch and Blush
Accessories: Waltzingmouse Stitched Tags Die Set, Waltzingmouse Folding Tag Die Set, Waltzingmouse Picot Edge Die, Recollections Pearls, May Arts Silk Ribbon, Mulberry Flowers, Clear Embossing Powder, Loose pearls, button, lace

Well I did indulge but also pulled out a little bit of blue so as not to go too overboard :-)

Baby Card Makiing Ideas by Becca Feeken using Waltzingmouse Little Darlings - www.amazingpapergrace.com

For this 6″x6″ card I used the Waltzingmouse Folding Tag Die Set to fill in for the pennants at the bottom of the page and also used the same tag to stamp the sentiment on.  I used Spellbinders A2 Bracket Borders One to cross the pennant and added some color behind the sentiment with Spellbinders Elegant Ovals.

Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Natural White Smooth 80 lb Cardstock, Glitz Design – Felicity Paper Pack
Ink: Versafine Onxy Black and Clear Embossing Powder

All of the new sets will be available on Wednesday, August 27th on the Waltzingmouse Stamps website.  All the other ladies have goodies to show you too so I hope you’ll pop in for a visit.  We’ll be back tomorrow with more goodies :-)

    Oh Becca,
    If only my daughter was 21 years younger and about to start her family I could indulge myself and make these. (Although she did not start her family until 10 years ago!! thus making me an elderly grandma) !!!
    These are truly beautiful and I will adjust and adapt for other uses – although my niece has been married for a year and hopefully will give me a reason to produce something similar.
    Thank you and God Bless xxReplyCancel

    Becca,
    Oh my gosh, both cards a precious, and gorgeous. Although blue is my favorite color, in this case, the pink one wins hands down…it’s the lace…just lovely. About the double stamping…Did you dry the first one before applying the second? Did you emboss?ReplyCancel

  • Charlotte ZweigoronAugust 26, 2014 - 5:12 am

    Such cuteness!! I have a question that goes back in time… I was just reading through your blog and came upon the card you did for your daughter’s new house last year. (Lovey, BTW!) I didn’t read everything in between so I may have missed the answer to my question in another blog post but hope you will indulge me this once. I recently purchased some of those clear plastic boxes for my super embellished cards but have been putting them in bubble envelopes for mailing which adds weight and, therefore, postage. Did your card get through the mail to your daughter without being smushed? Did you have to put any special notation on the outside? (Sometimes I have to mark mine “Do Not Bend” and, I think, it costs a little more to send.)ReplyCancel
