Hey y’all!
This is it! You’ve made it to the end of the March Release with Waltzingmouse stamps, and now we get to WALTZ our happy, little hearts out!
I’m so EXCITED!
I always love this time of the month, and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the WM Design Team has come up with…
You can see the entire Waltz participant list down below… Be sure to comment at each and every one of our blogs, so you don’t miss out on winning some irresistable goodies!
This first card that I created features Vintage Labels 18, Way Out West, and Back in the Saddle.
You see how the sentiment looks like it says “It’s Our Big Day”? That’s just a funny result of the label stamp blocking the “Y” in “Your.” The stamp actually says, “It’s Your Big Day.” Just thought I’d point that out, lol…
The star border, the flourish, the small stars and the sentiment are all from the western sets.
I wanted to show how you can use the western-themed stamps in a not-so-western way…
Of course the labels are just a gorgeous, drool-worthy addition to all of our stashes.
I don’t see how anyone can pass this set of beauty up! Lol… Just yummy. Especially when you layer them like I have on this card.
Up next I have a fun card for a little girl’s 1st birthday…
I kept the layout of this card fairly simple so that the banners could take centre stage.
I stamped the small banner from Mini Banners, and then used the “1st” sentiment from the Vintage Banners set.
Can’t you just imagine how fun it would be to create birthday invitations, place settings, gift bags, gift cards, and even full-sized banners using the set as I showcased it yesterday?!
Well I’ll be sharing some of that with you soon to come, so be ready! Lol!
And I know that I’ve said it before, but I can’t help saying it again… These banner sets are a must. have.
I added the “birthday” from Baskets Additions to the “1st” from Vintage Banners, and my sentiment was comlete! Easy peasy!
On both cards I used ribbon from miss Marilyn, and that fun wooden button is from Carly’s shoppe. Love that place.
So, now… which is your favorite of the FIVE sets being released???
I don’t think I can pick a favorite, they’re all so great!
Well… if you’re all done here, up next in the blog waltz is miss Belinda! She always has the most clever way of stamping, and I can’t wait to see what she’s got for us today!
And in case you missed someone… here’s the entire list of waltzers!

And lastly… this waltz means that March’s Full Reveal has officially gone live at 2pm EST, and more importantly, all FIVE sets will be available for purchase in the Waltzingmouse Stamps Store at 2:15pm EST!
So, get your shopping fingers ready, beacause I have a feeling that these stamps will be flying off of the shelves!
Happy shopping!

Beautiful cards – I love them both!
I love the colours on your pennants, so vibrant and the vintage labels are amazing.
It’s hard to pick a favorite, but I would have to pick the big day card. Truely marvelous cards.
super cute and fun cards!
Lovely layers, Sarah! That banner card is so sweet in those colors, just adorable!
I love the multi layered labels stamped in different colors! I’d not think to put them together that way and it is so pretty!
Congratulations on your promotion to the design team. These two beauties show exactly why Claire asked you to join! I love what you’ve done with the little banners.

Love both cards and you did a great job showing how versitile the stamps are.
Such amazing cards! The 1st one has so many details, which I just love! I really adore the 2nd card with the banners and making it a card for your girls 1st birday..perfect!
Love the shabby chic look you’ve added with the crumpled ribbon. Takes the western look up a notch, just show how versatile these new sets are. Also like the layered look and the banners are terrific. Can’t wait to order these new stamps. thanks for sharing your creativity!
I love the colors and the use of layers with the Labels 18. Thanks for sharing
Wonderful cards! I really love the shabby chic look on the first one. Your details are just perfect. TFS!
2 very lovely cards, love the pennants, and the gorgeous label and ribbon on the first one, so pretty.
I’m not sure if you meant to cover the “Y” in the word “Your” but I love that you did and pointed it out to us. After seeing your card I think it opened up so many more possibilities for this set including Anniversary, Wedding Day, Promotions, scheduled child birth… any milestone that you and a friend/co-worker or loved one is going through. Thanks so much for that!
Way to Go, Sarah!! Your first card uses the three sets I’ve ordered this evening, and you’ve really showcased them all fabulously … absolutely gorgeous!
Oh my, I love the layering that you did on both cards, especially the first one. Gor-geous!! Vintage Labels No. 18 is definitely my favorite and is on it’s way to me, as is Bitty Banners. Can’t wait!
Wonderful samples Sarah!
Great cards!! Love the banners!!
Love your samples! The color choices are perfect and everything harmonizes so nicely!
Oh SIGH! Your cards are just beautiful!This is just a spectacular batch of stamps!
Love your cards – my favorite is the first one! Love the romantic feel you have created with the ribbon and button! Even more romantic with the “our”, but just as sweet with the “your”.
Congratulations on your first release Sarah!!!
Today’s projects are just stunning!!!! Your first card is magic….all that layering of card followed by the labels…amazing! A gift in itself!
You’ve shown how truly versatile these sets of Claire’s are …
Sarah, Great cards. The first one is soooo shabby chic! Congrats for being added to the design team. I look forward to seeing your work.
Both so beautiful but the first is my fave with it’s vintage colours, and kraft, and swiped paint….loooooove it! Beautiful shabby inspiration for my shabby loving soul…thanks Sarah:-))) You are rocking the WM Stamps love! xL
Outstanding, Sarah…such beautiful projects…really captured the awesomeness of these sets. Super job!
Great cards! It’s amazing how different they are. Love them both for different reasons–the first because of the rich, elegant colors; the second because of the brighter colors and fun feeling it gives.
Both cards are just beautiful, Sarah!
Love them all! You did a great job!
Oh yes, Shabby Chic! These are beautiful cards and a unique take on the Western theme. I love them! Nice.
Oh man.. I love your use of the white paint on the little stars!!!!! And my favorite set is the Way out West…
wow–gorgeous work….love the vintage feel of the first card.
love your happy mistake. with a bit of masking one can quickly say “it’s our big day” and create a nice wedding or moving invite…paired w/ some good ‘ole southern bbq. yum. the banners are so cute – love your fresh fun birthday card.
You’re cards are totally my favourites so far! Who knew that you could make stamps from a Western set look shabby chic! And your banner card makes me smile! I live happy coloured striped papers!!
Both of your cards are wonderful Sarah! Love the soft colors on the first and the fun brighter colors on the second!
My favorite is the Vintage Banner, but your card with Labels Eighteen is fabulous!
I thought Way out West was my favorite this release but your label card might have swayed me.
Love both the cards. The itty bitty banner is sweet.
Two beautiful cards. Love the style of each as they use the different stamps!
Your cards are wonderful.
These are lovely Sarah, I love the crinkly ribbon, bow & lace in the first card (I LOVE that nestie shape, don’t you?) and I lobe how colorful your pennant card is too!
Absolutely love both of these cards. I think my favorite is Way Out West. Really lovely.
Love both of your cards today. So very different but so very beautiful. Truly inspiring!
