For me to have been so quiet, you must have known that I was up to something mischievous! Oh my word, it’s been so hard to keep silent, resisting the urge to give even a tiny little hint. Well today, I can let the proverbial cat out of the bag! Every now and again you come across a company that clicks with you. What I mean is everything they make is right up your alley; fits you like a glove; you wonder if they are reading your mind. Well, this certain company was seriously compromising my budget. Every month I found myself looking at the clock and waiting for their release so that I could snag those treasures before they were all gone. I admit this . . . I do!! You cannot imagine the excitement when I opened up the email asking if I wanted to join in. I.Had.A.Hissy.Fit – the good kind :-) So today, I’m joining the rest of the Waltzingmouse Stamps Design Team – with two other new members, Clare Buswell and Kelly Schirmer!! So, this is Day One of four days of previews, culminating in the release of four fabulous sets of stamps!! I’m thrilled beyond words to be able to share a new set in the September Waltzingmouse release called A Cottage Home that will be released on September 19th. Now, when Claire showed this set, I immediately knew what I wanted to make – a house warming card which includes a gift card. I have to show quite a few pictures to help you see all that’s included. The exterior is very calm and all the goodies are all on the inside – this is what unfolds :-)
Here’s how it looks when it’s opened up or closed down.
The roof opens up and I have a little pocket on the inside of the house that holds a gift card. I have a tassel attached so that it can simply be pulled and the gift card will come out :-) It was easy to put a hole in the gift card with a Japanese screw punch.
Here’s one last shot of the face of the card, up close.
The card is quite large 7″ wide by 6.5″ tall, but I needed it to be that way to fit the gift card. To send it out, I’m sure I would construct a shallow box. This was seriously a fun project! I see soooo many uses for this sweet little house.
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps – A Cottage Home Paper: My Minds Eye – Lost and Found 2 – Blush, Sunshine Ink: Studio G Dye Based Ink Accessories: Spellbinders™ Grand Labels Twenty Three, Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Two, Spellbinders™ Ironworks Motifs, Spellbinders Grommet Tags, JHB Button, Pearl Pics, Satin Ribbon, Zva Creative Pearls, Copic Marker, |
Be sure to peek in and see what everyone else did with this set!!
I’m so excited to be on this team of unbelievably talented and sweet women!! My gratitude to Claire, Lynn and all the ladies for their heartwarming welcome. Be sure to stop by tomorrow and see previews of another new set, for day two of our four days of previews.
the card opens to the house? both are beautiful as stand-alone creations. you are ALWAYS so inspiring. if you ever do a class on the house, please tell us because I’d want to be one of the first to sign up! thanks so much for sharing . . . and being so creative. WMS is one of my favorite stamp companies and they are so lucky to have you on their DT!
OMG, I went to a different browser and saw the 3rd pic . . . seriously phenomenal! I definitely want the class . . . you rock!

I was getting kinda concerned not seeing any new creations from you, but I’m glad to see that you were up to something wonderful as usual. I can’t wait to see the rest of the releases. Thanks for sharing.
THUD! Amazing, Becca. Pick me up off the floor.
Becca….welcome aboard the WMS team…it is so good to have you design for Claire, my fellow countrywoman….I love it that someone from Northern Ireland has made her mark on the stamping world. I love your ‘card’ – a great creation indeed. So looking forward to seeing more of Claire’s designs interpreted by your good self.
Becca Becca Where do I start. Congratulations on being asked to join such a fantastic group of talented people. Second, what a great card and house.
This is also right up my alley. I love to makie cards like this. In fact, my brother-
in-law and sister-in-law just purchased a house and would love to make it for
them. Where can it be purchased. They would go bananas to receive a card
like this. They save all the cards I send them. You are just so talented. Wish
we could purchase some of it. But you so willingly share it with us. So a big
THANK YOU BECCA. AND ANOTHER CONGRATULATIONS.
YOUR #1 FOLLOWER CYNTHIA
Whoooo Hoooo! Congrats Becca! I love this new stamp set, I’ll be checking it out on the 19th! Thanks
OOOOOHHHH…..Becca, How beautiful! I just can’t believe it. You obviously don’t sleep, your mind must go 100 miles an hour putting each piece of your construction together so it folded correctly. Were you an engineer in a previous life? I love it love it love it.

I would just LOVE to be inside your head for 24 hrs and get a glimpse of your creativity cogs whirring round. Of course I love you pop up house but I love the inlay you did on the front. Love the colors and well I could pick this apart but all in all I simply LOVE the entire project.
Congratulations on being asked to join this DT! Actually we should be congratulating them they are so lucky to have you. Oh shucks I’ll be gone for a while I’ll be looking forward to the rest of the previews when I get home.

First – I’m so pleased you’ve joined Claire’s DT – congratulations. Second, your project is MAGNIFICENT!!! I’m totally in awe – this is something I would NEVER have thought of – and it’s stunning.
Would love to have a tutorial on how to make that lovely house! Can’t wait to see what else you have to share with us.
I don’t usually comment because I love every card you have made, but this one ROCKS! How gorgeous!
Becky, you MUST bring that card to Rubber Ladies with you tomorrow, I’m dying to see it! What a stunning card! Just beautiful.
All I can say is OH MY GOODNESS how wonderful! You have been such a wonderful inspiration to me in many ways. Congratulations on being chosen to join this team (wonder what took them so long). So far I have not been able to afford the Grand Caliber and all of those Spellbinder dies that go with it but it is certainly on my list. I can hardly wait for the tutorial to come out
UNBELIEVABLE!!! – that’s all I can say!!!
I adore Waltzingnouse Stamps too, Becca–you ARE the perfect fit! Congrats, and thank you for a fabulous project too. :-D
This is such thrilling news, Becca! Congrats!! Can’t wait to see all of your creations for WMS. Your projects today are stunning as always, but the house card is just beyond words!
WOW!!! You have really outdone yourself and you keep pushing the limits of your creativity. Keep all of those amazing ideas coming, we all love your projects. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Just Gorgeous. So elegant looking! What a beautiful piece of artwork. The cottage is so pretty. And congratulations on becoming one of the WMS design team members.
Holy amazing work! That collapsible house, wow wow wow! That is amazing.
First off – I want to extend a very warm welcome to the WMS DT Becca! I knew we would get over the top inspiration from you and you certainly did not disappoint!!! I had thoughts of a creation like this but had no clue as to how to make it work – what a wonderful design – love the picket fence, the so sweet cottage and the lovely sentiment stamping on the front!
OMG – this is amazing. Like your other followers have said, a very BIG congrats on being on the design team – Claire’s lucky to have you! If you could pass on the information regarding that fantastic house pop-up – whether it’s a template for sale or your own design (with tutorial – hint hint – wink wink). You’re truly an inspiration Becca!
OH.MY.GOSH!!! this is absolutely freakin’ AMAZING!!! picking my jaw up off the floor right now!!
Truly amazing! I can’t wait to see a tutorial on this one!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE her stamps too so am excited to see you design for her!
Becca – Congrats to you. I was wondering what had happened to you – you were extremely hush hush. Waltzingmouse. I love them. I check their site ALMOST as much as I do yours. Love them. So glad that when I check them, you’ll be among the designers. Enjoy the marriage.
This house is just to cute for words. Is this a template that we can get from Waltzingmouse? or is this YOUR creation? Are you willing to share? My mouth dropped open as I scrolled down to your project. All I can say is WOW! how beautiful.
Oh my goodness!!!! What a BEAUTY!!! Congrats on being on your favorite team! They are lucky to have you and your talent!
WOW! Congratulations – looking forward to what you have to share.
That card is just amazing!
Sandra ltb

Wow! Becca you are just the best designer of cards and papercrafts I have ever seen! You always blow me away with your creativity! This is just beautiful.
Congratulations on joining the design team. I know why they picked you! I can tell you I have missed you so much! Each day I opened my email program the first thing I do is look for an email from you! Looking forward to hearing from you now that the cat is out of the bag. In our case our cat loves boxes more! :)
Girlfriend, you have just blown my socks off! Welcome to the team, and WAY to make an entrance!!!! :)
Love it! Hugs!
Congratulations!!
This card is truly amazing!! I am not at all surprised with your work–just as wonderful as ever!!
I am so thrilled to know you are now working with Waltzingmouse! As for this card… there are NO words!
Becca — ohhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyy!
First, congratulations on becoming a member of the WMS Design Team. I have several of Claire’s stamp sets and I’m going to be even more interested in them now that you’re on the DT. Claire Brennan certainly drew an ace when she got you! Is this stamp set available now?
Second, the card, the house!!!! OH MY! It is stunning. Just incredible. I can’t wait to see a video tutorial on this. You will do a Becca Bit, won’t you? Please????? Thanks! And I’m glad you’re back. Have missed you.
OMG Becca!!
The card is BEAUTIFUL…you really did a wonderful job with the stamp!
Thanks for sharing,
Sue
Oh my goodness ! how absolutely lovely and intriguing ! What a treasure to receive this card. I’ve never seen anything like it and with my very limited and new card making abilities, I’m sure I could not make it but I do love it. TFS
So thrilled for you Becca!! You will be a fabulous addition to their team. Love their nestie friendly stamps…hoping Santa can provide a few for me LOL!
Absolutely stunning from the front card to the inside! LOVE IT! I went to the site and noticed this company is from Ireland. Do they have any stores in the states for purchasing their stamps? Liked what I saw. Again special congratulations to you for being selected for this team. I’m sure they know they have one of the best! Enjoy your week-end.

This is way beyond my abilities…but I would expect nothing less from you. My dream is to make the bird cage someday…you know…start small. LOL!
They are so lucky to have you! I truly mean that. Lucky for us blog readers, we’ll get to see more good stuff. I check out a lot of blogs every day and you are truly one of the best for what I like to see. Thank you (once again) for sharing your creative side. Enjoy! (Love the house.)
WOW…this project has left me speechless! It is stunning to say the least! Congrats on the honor of making the DT…your creativity will enable many a stamper with the WM images!
I certainly hope you are planning on doing a tutorial on how you made this house! God has truly blessed you with a gift and I am so happy that you share it with all of us! Thank you!
I’m going to go back and take a second look. I just don’t believe what I think I just saw – a stunning card that opens into a charming cottage? I thought you’d done everything possible with paper, stamp and colour, but I was wrong. You’ve really outdone yourself on this one and good on you. It’s delightful! A feast for the eyes. Congratulations on your new relationship with Waltzingmouse Stamps and to them for snaffling you up.
Oh my gosh, this is simply beautiful!! You have amazed me again Becca!
Actually I am speechless!
Have a nice weekend!
This is so wonderful. Any chance of getting a tutorial on the pop up?
Congratulations! You card is magnificent. I have never seen anything like it! You truly amaze me, Becca!
Hi Becca, I love this so much. You are so talented, Waltzingmouse has gained a wonderful designer. I cannot say enough about this design and it even folds. You are amazing.
Chris
Stunning! I am awe-struck. I can’t even imagine how long this must have taken. Such beautiful work!
This is amazing!
I’m not familiar with Waltzingmouse, but I will be now that you’re on board. Love this house card. Would like to know how to put it together – maybe a tutorial? Beautiful work,m as usual.
WOW! I simply am speechless and in total awe!! Please let us know if you every do a tutorial/class on this card.
I’ve missed you, and am happy that you were “absent” for a good reason…not health or something else.
Hugs!!!
I am soo happy – isn’t Claire the sweetest?!
I am always so excited to see what you make. You inspire me to strive creatively just as Claire does with her glorious designs. I’ve been there from the start with both of you and am just tickled you two have finally teamed up. As lucky as you must feel, I think we the viewers are truly among the blessed here ;)
Becca, first of all I congratulate you to being a new member of the WMS Design Team.
Your card is so beautiful and that house that comes out when you open the card is just amazing. I have no idea how you have done this, but I’m sure it must have been a lot of work. But the result is really stunning and that house is just perfect.
Kind regards
Carola
Wow Becca! Impressive card! I love that you’re on their design team! Congratulations! I love their stamps too!!!!!

AMAZING! You are just amazing! I can’t believe the things that you come up with, just look at this, you made a house from a stamp! It’s 3d and it pops up!! WOW!!!

Congratulations Becca! This little housewarming card is spectacular, WM is so lucky to have you and I can imagine all the wonderful things we have in store for us in the future! Welcome and congratulations again.
I forgot to tell you how much I love your creation! The inlaid touch on the front is wonderful (didn’t Anya do one, too?) and really adds a posh touch but it’s the cottage that really makes me swoon. Of course, I hope a Becca tutorial will soon follow ;)
Congrats once again!
OK, this is absolutely not fair!!!! How can you post something this absolutely amazing without giving us instructions on how you did it????? I have NEVER seen anything more amazing. You are over-the-top talented! Claire is so very lucky to have you on her team. Please give instructions. . . please, please, pretty please. . .Best, Curt

Congratulations! I was so excited to see that you have been invited to join the WMS design team. I love your work and I love WMS. A match made in heaven. I can’t wait to see what all you come up with.
Congratulations!! It is my great desire to be on a design team someday so I know how wonderful you must feel being invited by a group you admire so much. Of the two, I still love your card the very best. One of my all time favorite colors. I try so hard to achieve that peaceful, beautiful sense of all your cards in some of mine. Again, congratulations… and you get to start off with a newly organized studio. I guess the old adage about having to get rid of some of the old so there will be room for the new is working for you here! Best wishes and blessings in all your endeavors.
Wow! That project is awesome! I love pop up features and this is a dandy!! Off to check out more of Waltzingmouse stamps d.t.
Oh, my! Oh, my! That is the most incredible thing I’ve seen yet! You are indeed amazing with paper, Becca! My mouth is still open and my jaw on the floor! TFS!
Congrats Becca, I am so very happy for you and as always you will make this company and everyone who sees your work with their products so very proud that they chose you. Snip, clip, color and glue on mdf and show them your unforgettable style!

Congratulations on your good news! This company has great stamps, I only wish that they were sold here in the U.S. Your project is beautiful – how you come up with the inspiration for your designs is amazing!
Oh my goodness that is one very special card!! Congratulations on your DT appoinment, but not surprising, your cards are sooooo beautiful and very inspiring – you have shown me so many more possibilities with my spellbinders than I have ever thought. Thank you!
Congratulations on becoming part of the WM design team! LOVE your card–folded up it is gorgeous and opened up–WOW!!!! You do the most amazing work! Can’t wait to see all the upcoming WM creations you will be sharing!

Oh my goodness, your house is amazing. I love it. You always take the next step to another level. Fabulous.
Wow! and Wow again, that card is so beautiful, I just love it. Thank you so much for sharing it. Congrats also.
First of all, a HUGE welcome to the team Becca!! Second, you sure started off with a bang gf!! Holy cow. What an amazing creation. It’s a card and gift all rolled into one, even without the gift card!! I have no idea how you got that baby to fold up, but it looks fabulous opened up or closed! A real STUNNER!
What an absolutely fantastic project Becca! And I’m so excited for you too, but such good news – you are one of my favorite bloggers and WMS is definitely one of my favorite products – Claire makes the greatest stamp sets! Congratulations, sounds like a match made in heaven to me…I hope some day my craftiness reaches the same level as you & Claire and the rest of the WMS design team!
Congratulations!!! You are quite a catch. I am very happy for you. Beautiful house/card.
Congratulations Becca! You are super talented and they are fortunate to have you on their team. I can believe how incredibly creative and difficult this card must have been to construct. Unbelievable! Love the images also.
God bless,
Peggy
Are you kidding me…this is absolutely amazing and oh my goodness, drop dead gorgeous. You are super talented. Congrats on being a part of the Waltzingmouse DT.
that card is absolutely amazing!!!!! Drop-dead amazing!!! I hope you give us all a tutorial on how to make it someday. I’ve admired your cards before, and congrats on joining the WMS design team: you so deserve it, and with that card, I’m sure Claire is saying “Whew; I’m glad she’s on MY team”. Welcome: I’ll be enjoying your creations every month!!
Becca, congratulations and wow – you certainly started off with a bang here. What a fabulous construction! I am so glad to see two of my favourite things combined and yes, I had noticed the odd rodent stamp slipping into your work lately!
Once again, Becca, I just marvel at how your brain works! To think of the pop-up is something, to actually create it is above and beyond!
