Waltzingmouse Stamps June Blog Party - Summertime Fun


Hi everyone!! It's the 17th of the month and that means it's time for this month's Waltzingmouse Stamps June Blog Party. This month the theme is SUMMERTIME FUN!!

My card today features 2 stamps sets - The front panel features My Island and the background is from Off Beat Backgrounds


I used Mustard Seed distress ink for the background and both Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade on the Island sunset. The palm trees and sentiment (also in the set) are stamped out with Tuxedo Black Memento. 

I embossed the white panel with brick wall embossing folder and layered every thing up, adding a white doily and die cut tickets. To embellish I added a metal anchor tied with twine, some pearls and I cut the little 'Snap Shots' banner from some patterned papers. 


You can find all of the details on how to play along, for your chance to win a WMS Stamp set, over on the Waltzingmouse Blog

Thanks for dropping in!!
