Good Morning! Today I am waltzing along with Claire, Owner/Designer of Waltzingmouse Stamps, her DT & friends in the June Friends of Waltzingmouse Stamps Waltz.
This month, the theme is to make a masculine card.
I made a card for a coworker who recently welcomed a beautiful baby boy :)
For sketch inspiration, I played along with this week's fun Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge.
I inked up few of my favorite Waltzingmouse Stamps to create my card. To create the pretty pattern you see on the light blue background piece, using VersaMark, I inked up one of the darling background images from the Pic-Nic Patterns set then embossed with white embossing powder.
After stamping & embossing the Pic-Nic Patterns background, I stamped the sweetie-pie image from Sweet Hearts set.
That's all I have today! Can't wait to Waltz but off to work first :( That silly job gets in the way of my hobby!!! Thanks for looking! Be Sweet :)

Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps Pic-Nic Patterns, Sweet Hearts
Paper: Melissa Frances DP, Gina K. Pure Luxury cs, Stampin' Up
