Sweet Treats...WMS January Blog Party 58

Mona Pendleton | Tuesday, January 17, 2012 @ 1:18 AM | , , ,

***Hi there! I apologize in advance! I have multiple posts today, so if you are looking for my Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge post, please click HERE or scroll down and if you are looking for my Pink Paislee post, please click HERE or continue to scroll up :)***
It's the 17th so that means it is usually the Friends of WMS Blog Waltz but Claire is shaking things up a bit this year and it is now referred to as the Walzingmouse Blog Party and the link list will be posted on her blog rather than in a thread within the forum. January's theme is SWEET TREATS! So I made a Sweet Treats gift set for someone special ;)
 I made a sweet treat container using the FREE Waltzingmouse Three Kings Box template. I stamped little hearts all over using a heart stamp from Sweethearts and the tag was made using the Sweet TREATS sentiment from Candy Jar Christmas. I love that Claire's stamps are so versatile, they can be used for multiple occasions!
 I stamped the sentiment in a die cut heart made using a Spellbinders Heart Punch Template then while leaving the template in place, I sponged some Ranger Spun Sugar Distress Ink all around:
The coordinating card was made using the same Spellbinders dies and Tim Holtz rosette with the exception of the BE MINE sentiment which is from Sweethearts:
 Love the white border created when you use the die as a stencil:
For sketch inspiration, I played along with the current Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge which by the way there is more time to play, so ink up your Waltzingmouse Stamps and join in the fun!
Thanks so much for visiting! Off to party Waltzingmouse style!

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Sweethearts, Candy Jar Christmas
Die Templates: Spellbinders Heart Circles, Heart Punch Templates, Classic Petal, Grand Calibur, Sizzix Tim Holtz Paper Rosette
Treat Template: FREE Waltzingmouse Three Kings Boxes
