Waltzingmouse Stamps October Release Day One

This is my second post for today.  Please scroll down (or click HERE) to see my Swimming for Katie Blog Hop post!

Welcome to Day One of the Waltzingmouse Stamps October release!  There are some really neat sets releasing this month and the design team can't wait to share some sneak peeks.  (I have to tell you this is one of my all time favorite releases so far!!)  The new sets will be available for purchase on October 15th.

Today, we are sharing sneak peeks of the new Seasonal Remedies stamp set.  I absolutely love this set!!  The typography makes it so easy to create beautiful cards.  The way Claire designs stamps is just amazing and I love seeing what she comes up with next.


For my card, I started by rounding the corners of my patterned paper and card base and then, stitching a couple pieces of patterned paper together (Basic Grey Jovial paper pad).  Then, I stamped my sentiment using tuxedo black memento ink on cream cardstock and sponged antique linen and tea dye distress inks around the edges of my sentiment and patterned papers (over the stitching to darken it as well).  I finished off my card with a gold filigree corner and some taupe roses from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Now, it's time to hop around to the other designers' blogs to see what they created with the new set:
