*Waltzingmouse Birthday Blog Waltz*

Hi everyone! Happy Monday!

I’m so excited to be here for my 1st ever Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog Waltz! And how appropriate that it’s also a celebration of Waltzingmouse’s 1st Anniversary? Congrats, Claire, on a successful 1st year with an amazing company!

If you haven’t already, be sure to go to the Waltzingmouse Forum so you can see the entire list of participants and all of their lovely creations. The theme for this month’s hop is BIRTHDAY. I think one of my favorite sets that Claire has released is her Very Vintage Labels 4 set. The options are endless, and they stamp so well! I can’t wait to make lots of fun tags with my new set. Thanks Claire!

I have been neglecting my unreasonably large collection of Thickers, so I decided to put them to good use with today’s card. I used the colors from Kristina’s current color inspiration as well. Umm, yea, that was a doozy! Lol! I struggle with any 5 color challenge, but I’m pleased with how it all turned out. Thanks for the inspiration Kristina!

*Hugs & Love!*
