100th Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge


Click here for way more info.
 Not sure what this will be used for yet , but I have many ideas.
I  stamped off once then onto the card so it would be a bit lighter.

 I have been waiting all weekend to get a chance to make a card for the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge. This is the 100th Sketch challenge. You should check it out. Not to worry if you don't have any Waltzingmouse Stamps YET you can use the freebie from the web site. WARNING that is how I got started….. that... and a few enablers  :) Love these stamps!  I hope to find some more time to make another card. This card got started because I wanted to use the wide band of black ribbon that was on a gift one of my daughters gave me.  Thank you for all your kind comments and sweet words of encouragement.

  5. This card is absolutely stunning. I don't think I've ever made a card with just black and white, and now I don't know why. I love how you used the ribbon, and those pins, too.

  17. Marybeth, This is drop dead gorgeous - how can I say that about a rooster? Talk about French Country Glamour!!!! Love the chickenwire, that fab frame, and how cute is the little rooster cut out on the bow? The b&w theme makes this so classic looking. You nailed this!
