Waltzingmouse Autumn Blog Waltz

Happy Sunday!  I had a fantastic weekend meeting up with Tosh and Laurie and now I'm starting my week of relaxation here at Laurie's.  After a few days of no stamping and a day of driving, we were soooo ready to spend a little time in the stamp room last night creating something for the Waltzingmouse Blog Waltz.  You can find all the info about the waltz on the Waltzingmouse Blog.

For my card, I paired the leaves from the Big Blooms - Crysanthemums set with a sentiment from the Peace and Plenty set.  To start, I did a little rock and roll stamping with the solid leaf and some Peach Parfait and Cajun Craze ink.  I added a Cajun Craze mat with a Martha Stewart deep edge punched border, then layered a little ribbon, some pearls and the sentiment over the top.  To jazz things up, I finished with some Diamond Stickles accents on a couple of cut out leaves.


Okay, that's all for me today.  Thanks so much for stopping by today and happy hopping!
