I have two projects to share with you today - My Saturday Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge card and a project using one of Claire's free templates (see the challenge here). First - the sketch - this one is fun and easy don't you think!?
For some reason, as soon as I saw the big circle I thought of this wonderful Winnie the Witch stamp from last year's WMS set Halloween Party!
I stamped two other images from this set for the small circles. I embossed the card with the spider web embossing folder and painted over it with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist/Icicle (which I just got in the mail and used without really knowing what to do with it!?!) It gives the whole background a 'glimmer'! I used circle and pinking circle Nestabilities - sponging the images before taking them out of the dies. Then I sponged over the white edges with Milled Lavender ink to soften the whiteness but not cover it completely. All the circles are popped up on foam dimensionals. Finally, I added tiny gems here and there for a little sparkle!
So waltz on over to the WMS Sketch Blog and find out what the Mischief Makers have created this week for our inspiration! Then make up your own card using the sketch and link it there - you could be a Top Mouse next week!! And don't forget to check out my template project below!

We have a Harvest Fair at my church every October and I make crafts to sell at it - these fun treat pouches will be one of my projects! I have these fun gummy spider candies to put inside. I used stamps from Halloween Party, Midnight Feast and Off Beat Backgrounds. I cut the sentiment with a Labels 13 Nestability.
