Top 'o the morning to you...and the rest of the day to yourself! (I love that Irish sentiment. I never knew there was a "second" part to the greeting until I met Claire and got my hands on her Irish Blessings stamp set. :)
Anyhoo, Happy St Patrick's Day!!! I'm so happy to be participating in this month's Friends of WMS Blog Waltz. I remember when the monthly waltzes first started last year on St Patrick's Day. That's how they landed on the 17th of each month...a bit of WMS trivia for you. ;)
My card features one of the many wonderful Irish sayings from Irish Blessings which I stamped inside one of the beautiful Very Vintage Labels No. 10 images. I stamped the label in acrylic paint...Adirondack "Lettuce" Paint Dabber, to be exact. I like that it gives an aged look to the image. I stamped the greeting and sponged all the edges with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain Distress Ink... I just can't seem to stop myself from doing that all the time now, thanks to the influence of my friends Julie and Traci. ;) The patterned paper is by Webster's Pages.
To all my WMS friends, I'm just heartbroken to not be a part of the WMS family anymore. I loved being Claire's Mousekeeper so much... more than you know. It's wrenching to be on the outside looking in now, but things change and life goes on. I can't thank Claire and the rest of the girls on the DT and the Mischief Makers enough for all their good wishes in my new venture, and for all the fun I had while I was Mousekeeper. A part of my heart will ALWAYS belong to Claire and Waltzingmouse Stamps. You'll just see me playing on "this side" of the fence from now on.
Now on you go to waltz the day (or night?) away! Don't forget to wear green so that you don't get pinched! I'm actually reminding myself because for some reason, I always forget. lol
I'll be waltzing your way soon, too!
Hugs,
