There’s nothing better than the day the postman leaves your house and you know there’s a package waiting there for you. Well actually there is something better and that’s when the package is new stamps!! I still get that way and that’s what makes stamp releases so cool!! So we’re back for Day 3 of Previews for Waltzingmouse Stamps during their June Release. There are more new sets to see!! I’m using the new Country Labels 14 for a powdery blue card stacked with accents. The sentiment is so cute; the card says Love You to Bits. I printed out this sweet paper from ByDigital for my background and stayed within the same color palette for the rest of the card.
So to recap my layers from the bottom up, the card base is made from Spellbinders 5 x 7 Elegant Labels Four. My tutorial on Spellbinders Hinged Card Bases will show you how to make your card base, if you have any questions. This one is filigree on the front and solid on the back. The rest of the layers are as follows: design paper layer 4″ x 5-3/4″, foam tape, die cut layer from Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight, foam tape, die cut layer cut from Spellbinders Timeless Rectangles, foam tape, die cut layer cut from Spellbinders Labels Fourteen. Ribbon and flowers go on their appropriate layers.

Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Stamps June Release. This is preview Day2 and the design team is previewing quite a few new sets. I went with a brown and cream card today because I’m using a crackle background stamp. Since it is a reverse background, I stamped with Versamark and embossed with clear ink then rubbed Tea Dye ink in the crevices to highlight the crackle. The mini measures 2-5/8″ x 3-3/8″ which was just the right size for the interior of one of my die layers.
So to recap my layers from the bottom up, I started with a card base of 5-1/2″ x 4-1/2″ , foam tape, die cut layer with Spellbinders A2 Filigree Delight, foam tape, die cut layer with Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight, foam tape, die cut layer with Spellbinders Window Two, die cut layer with Spellbinders Labels Eight with sentiment. After all was put together, the corners were embellished with Spellbinders Moroccan Accents. Flowers and ribbon added on appropriate layers.
SUPPLIES I USED |
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps – Reverse Crackle Background Mini, Light of the World
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Natural White Smooth 80 lb Cardstock, EKS – Acorn
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Tea Die Distress Ink, Versamark
Accessories: Spellbinders A2 Filigree Delight, Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight, Spellbinders Labels Eight, Spellbinders Window Two, Spellbinders Moroccan Accents, Recollections Pearls, May Arts Silk Ribbon, Mulberry Flowers, Clear Embossing Powder, Maya Roads Trinket Pin, Becca’s Bow Maker |

Beautiful work as usual. The cherry card is bright and the red and white really stands out against the black background. As always love the bows.
Whenever I visit your site, Becca, my fairly extensive vocabulary is reduced to just a few words. Beautiful, gorgeous, awesome. Today it happened again.
Wow your cards are fabulous! I always enjoy all the details on your projects.
Hi Becca
Your cards are BEAUTIFUL inside and out too
Love Marion x
Lovely bows on all the cards and I like the shape of the first one and all the dies you used.
Such elegant cards!! Love the pale neutrals and the lovely lattice and embossing work of the first ones. Love how you accent each of them with a great big wonderful bow!!!!
3 more winners Becca!
When I went to the other sites as you suggested we do on the last blog, I didn’t like any of them and I was thinking “I wonder what would Becca would do with those cherries?” Well I got to find out and I love what you did!!!!! I just knew you could take those cherries and really do something beautiful with them! Your classic elegance and beauty is what I love!!! Keep up the great work!!!!!
What a treat it was today to find three yummy cards! I feel blessed when there is at least one!!!! Thank you so much for telling us how you do the cards, so I can at least attempt to do something beautiful.
Do you have a method of thinking up designs? Like do you see the whole card in your mind before you make it, or do you have lots of things cut wiht the dies and you just play around with them? Love your talented way with beauty.
You really went all out today! Not only are your cards elegant, but now you have made a super cute, sweet cherry card too! Great job!
Each one is truly gorgeous! Love the dies and gorgeous bows……and of course I love the new stamps !
Gorgeous cards. Wow. I really love how the letters are on the sentiments too.
As always, your cards are fabulous!
Fabulous, love them all.
