Claire's Birthday Blog Waltz!

The WMS Design Team and Mischief Maker Sketch Team are delighted to be blog waltzing today to celebrate our Claire's Birthday!

Claire, as you know, is the owner/designer of Waltzingmouse Stamps. She is just the nicest, most genuine, caring person and I'm so happy and honored to be on her Design Team

The waltz starts at the WMS blog where you'll find the order of the dance if you get lost along the way.

So please waltz along with us today to see a variety of the wonderful stamps Claire has designed and to help us wish her the most happiest of birthdays!

If you came here from Jennifer's blog - you are on the right track!

I went with a green palet today (thinking of Ireland where Claire lives, I guess!). I started with a piece of celtic squares digital paper from WMS. I used stamps from Faux Fun Circles, Victorian Frippery and Frame It on the front. I used circle and lacey circle Nestabilities.


And here's the inside of the card where I used stamps from Frame It and Faux Fun Circles.

Claire always says 'hope it tickles' so I thought it was quite appropriate here!


Happy Birthday dear Claire! Hope you enjoy your very own special Waltz today!!


And now if you'll be so kind as to waltz over to Mischief Maker Edna's blog to see what beautiful creation she has made!
