Waltzingmouse Blog Waltz!

It's blog waltz time again! The theme for February is buttons and I have two cards for you! The first one (above) uses Prima papers, grungeboard shapes, lots of sparkly embossing and shimmering mists, although unfortunately you can't really see the sparklyness on the photo. I also used my Waltzingmouse Holiday Label No 14 stamps along with the co-ordinating Nestabilities.


My second card uses what I think are Cosmo Cricket papers, although I am prepared to stand corrected on that! I bought a little pack of 6x6 papers so there isn't any name on them...
The little button border was cut out on my Craft robo and I stitched a couple of buttons onto it. I used Waltzingmouse Holiday Labels No 14 again on here along with Nestabilities Labels 14 and 17.
Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful cards! I love the color choices you made. The winged heart on the first card is the perfect focal point and I REALLY digging the button border on the second card.

Ooooh - you made two for us! I especially liked the second one and the contrast of all the geometric shapes.

Ren-Yi said...

what gorgeous cards! i love how you used those label to create such a striking focal point. In case you were wondering, the second card's paper looks like Crate Paper "School Spirit" - the only reason i know that is because i own it and was looking at it the other day ;)
