Welcome to day 3 of the Waltzingmouse Stamps May release previews. Today we're reviewing both new stamp sets being released - USA 1776 and Country Labels No.4.
I was aiming for a quilt effect card using the star shape elements from USA 1776, stamped in a mix of colors to create the look of a quilt. My crafty friend Lin inspired me to use the houndstooth embossing folder over my stamped panel to give the dimpled look of a real quilt.
I used another of the fabulous labels from Country Labels No.4 and the sentiment is from the same stamp set. All the cardstock I used is from the Tim Holtz Kraft-Core Nostalgic Collection from Core'dinations.
I'll be back tomorrow with the entire Waltzingmouse Stamps design team to showcase these brilliant new stamp sets for the release day blog waltz!! In the meantime check out what my fellow teammates created to inspire you today.
