Excuse the poor pun, but today is the 17th which means it's waltz day on the Waltzingmouse Forum and this months theme is tea or coffee so tea and a waltz is a tea dance right? If you want to know more about the waltz then this is the place to go http://waltzingmouse.blogspot.com/p/friends-blog-waltz.html
I stamped a frame with the frame-it set from Waltzingmouse (which is straight honest - its the photo that's wonky!) and added the appropriate sentiment from the same set into the frame all in a pearl crimson ink. The stack of cups is made using lots of little snippets of dp traced through a papermania henbury lane stencil, cut out and stuck onto a piece of card I cut to the full stencil. I added some lines with my fine liner and a little shading inside the cups with copics. As I used lots of iddy-biddy bits of papers from my stash, I am also going to post this on Jule's Sunday Snippets challenge -http://jules-alwayswithaheart.blogspot.com/2011/08/jules-crafty-snippet-challenge-week-32.html - do I get extra points for the number of different snippets on one card Jules????
I'll be waltzing around the rest of the entries later today.
