Good morning friends! Today is release day 1 for Waltzingmouse Stamps. There are several new sets and dies and you can see them in full HERE on the first day of the release :-) I have a couple of cards to share with you today. The first is a vintage look Mothers Day Card using the new Mother Word Die Set.
For my 5-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ card, I found the lady silhouette in my stash of digitally printed paper and thought she’d be perfect. I set her in front of a panel using Spellbinders Fancy Lattice and tied it all up with a bow and some pearls.
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps – Mother Word Die Set Paper: Neenah Classic Crest, Natural White, Smooth 80 lb Cardstock, Bazzill – Black, Digital Paper from Etsy Shop – ByDigitalPaper Ink: None Accessories: Spellbinders Fancy Lattice, Cream Satin Ribbon, Black Satin Ribbon, pearls, button |
Next up is a small card using the Pretty Circles Die Set and the Hello die template. My card base is made using the largest Spellbinders A2 Modern Stationary which yields a card base 4-1/8″ – 5-3/8″. I simply cut an aperature using the circle die template and centered the hello in the frame. The circle is darling with the petite scallops that curve around the inside edge – in the same cut it also produces a stand alone circle with petite scallops along the outer edge (stashed for use in a later card :-))
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps – Pretty Circles Die Set, Hello Die Template Paper: Neenah Classic Crest, Natural White, Smooth 80 lb Cardstock, Digital Paper – Crafty Secrets CD Ink: None Accessories: Spellbinders A2 Modern Stationary, May Arts Silk Ribbon, Button, lace |
My last card today is using Waltzingmouse Stamps Special Lady. I created a shape card using Spellbinders Fleur de Elegance and Spellbinders Oval Bliss cutting the aperature with Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG. Hint: I snipped off the bottom of Fleur de Elegance so that it would stand on it’s own.

Friends, thanks so much for stopping by! I’ll see you soon!!
Rich and wonderful, Becca! You never fail to showcase with detailed elegance!
I love that silhouette of the lady playing chess!! The card is precious and would be perfect for my class to do for Mother’s Day. Any hints about how to make that bow on your bowmaker or is it a combo of the bow tutorials on the original instructional disc?
Becca,
I always love your cards. Today’s card with the silhouette of the lady in black and white just takes my breath away. It is about 2:40 pm here in RI and my husband and I just returned from church where we had a memorial service for my mother Betty Joan Phillips Tozier who passed away in January. The service was totally perfect for us and your card just reminded me of the wonderful lady my mother was. Thank you for a beautiful memory and sentiment. Mom was a nurse, avid writer of poetry, painter and seamstress. She would have loved your card.
God Bless and thank you Becca!
Gorgeous!!! I love all three cards.
These cards are all so beautiful! Especially (Mother) I wondered if there is a card design for daughter. Every year for Mother’s Day, my daughter, son-in law and grandchildren honors me on that day and I appreciate it so much and I have wondered every year about a special card for my daughter so that I can honor her as the mother of my grandchildren. Is there one out there? or can you design one?
Hi Becca! I just knew you would dress up these stamps and dies wonderfully! I especially love the lady all framed with the beautiful dies and ribbon!
Hi Becca,
Wow, girl, you have been busy! Three absolutely beautiful cards. Love the MOTHER one with the black ribbon and bow the best but they are all just lovely. I just happen to have that lattice die so I can do. Why don’t you design dies for Mother, Sister, Daughter, Aunt, Neice, Dad, Brother, Son and Nephew. I would definitely buy those. Something to think about.
Hugs,
Mstgane

Your cards are always so great. I love all the cards.

I love these cards. Especially the one that says “hello”. And no matter what, I can’t tie these bows like you. They are so elegant.
Absolutely love the black and white….lady playing the piano. I am smitten with the vintagey cards! Reminds me a little of the Harrison Fisher beauties. Yes, the black bow is just gorgeous….time to go back to my dvd of your bow tying instructions!
Becca. as usual, your cards are stunning. I’ve never heard of Waltzingmouse stamps. Are they new? You’ve done an outstanding job yet again. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful card love the lady stamp nd the layering of the dies. great job. the added bling is perfect.

Morning Becca,
Stunning cards but my favourite has to be the first one, so love the digi paper of the Lady at the desk, so pretty and vintage looking.
Have a great day.

Hello Becca
Wonderful Mothers Day cards!
So beautiful!
Love Marg
Absolut gorgeous work here again Becca. Both cards are sooo beautiful, but the silouettelady is just very very special and beautiful in my world, and I sooo love that one.Wonderful work as usual hun.
Hello Becca,
How beautiful are these cards? All three have their own attraction but the Mother’s card will be perfect for the 15th March when it’s Mothering Sunday (Mother’s Day) in the U.K. My own mother died in 1980 but I often make her a card on that day or her birthday and keep it in a box with one of her blouses that I cannot bear to part with. I think a copy of your card (with your permission) will be the next card in the box. My daughter does not know I do this, I wonder what her reaction will be when she eventually find out!!
Love xx
Stunning is the word that immediately comes to mind! I am so in love with these stamps and dies! There goes the budget for this month!
Oh Becca that black card is so elegant but that cute little blue card really caught my eye. Spectacular as usual!
Wow, Becca. You just keep on creating such beautiful cards. That digital paper image is gorgeous. Please tell us where you found it. Thanks for the inspiration. Love the way you use the dies.
Beautiful and sweet are what these are!!
LOVE all of the cards you presented today, Becca, expecially the “Special Lady” oval offering. It is just gorgeous! Thank you for your continuing inspiration!
All so different – all so beautiful!
Hugs

Hi Becca, what beautiful cards you have made, I am feasting my eyes, so, so gorgeous. My favourite has to be the monochrome Mother’s Day card- the digital paper looks like a stamp, all your embellishments and finishing touches compliment your cards so well – thank you Becca x x x
Becca these are beautiful! I love the Mother’s Day card I would love to have that paper.

I have already commented here about this gorgeous card and you have been gracious enough to give me a bow “update”… Now I have just placed my order for the “Mother” die and for the “Easter” die featured in another of your beautiful cards. I hope all the companies you work with know just how lucky they are to have you on their team. I certainly know how lucky I am to be one of your subscribers!!
