Hello friends and welcome to "A Waltzingmouse Christmas" - a 4 day event highlighting the new sets available at Waltzingmouse Stamps and some of our older favorites! Head over to the WMS blog for more information!
I must say it has been nice to be crafting again - these are the first projects I've made since September when our daughter was born! At nearly 11 weeks, Amelia is now entertaining herself a bit and napping on a more regular basis so I can get some crafting time in my days. It is lovely to be back!
Anyway, on to the festivities at hand... My first project is an embellished postcard tag that I stamped with images and a sentiment from Alpine Christmas. I saw the postcard and immediately thought of some time I spent in Switzerland a number of years ago and how I long to go back for the Christmas markets. I stamped and embossed the mountain range using white powder and stamped the little village and trees below. I finished the tag off with a sentiment from the set and some fabric snowflakes.
And, I'd be remiss as a new mother if I didn't post at least one photo of the lady that makes my life complete - Miss Amelia Grace...
