Challenge 27 - Theme

Good morning all!  It was so nice to see so many entries for our Birthday/Anniversary challenge.  Now it's time for our new challenge - for the next couple of weeks we'd like to see your cards on the theme of:

CHRISTMAS


We must remind you that as this is a Waltzingmouse Fanatics challenge your project MUST include at least one WM stamp, sentiment or digi image.  If you don't have any stamps, Claire does have a number of Freebies on her site.  Now, without further ado, here are a couple of inspiration cards to get you in the mood!

Jeanne joined us as our Guest Designer and she has donated the most fabulous prize of a set of Fine Feathers Stamps and the matching dies too!  
It was really tough picking a winner but we did it!

Happy Birthday to us!

Well - can you believe it - Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge is One Year Old TODAY!   That has to be cause for celebration right?


So let's start by celebrating our winners from the previous sketch challenge - our No1 Fan this time round was Anya with this bright and cheery thank you card.


Our runners up this time around were Elizabeta - we loved the wonderful background stamping she did, and Claire - who could have failed to love all the texture and richness the head mouse herself brought to our sketch?


Do take your winners badges from our winners page ladies!

CHALLENGE 26

So, time for our new challenge - we thought we'd make it easy with a theme of Birthday/Anniversary in honour of it being our 1st Anniversary Challenge.   So basically anything on that theme using Waltzingmouse product goes - easy peasy!!!!

We're adding to the fun by adding a Guest DT member Jeanne who is a big Waltzingmouse fan - just like us!!!  Jeanne, being a generous soul, is also offering a prize for the winner of this challenge so there are even more reasons to play along!  So do grab your Waltzingmouse stamps, papers, digi and play along with us!  Here's some inspiration to get you started:
