Nordic Deer Sketch

The sketch this week at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog is by the amazing Jean Martin!  I never tire of visiting her blog and seeing her lovely creations!  The sketch this week is no exception...


I chose to use the 2011 Holiday Ornaments stamp set paired with some new paper that I found on Black Friday :)


The paper is "Christmas Wish" by My Mind's Eye.  How could I pass it up knowing that I had lovely Nordic stamps to use at home?!  The sentiment is also from 2011 Holiday Ornaments.


Since I was at JoAnn's at 6:15 AM, I decided to add the Spellbinders Tear Drop Circles Nestabilities to my collection.  I thought they looked positively snowflake-y!  (I also scored my first little table Ott Lite at 80% off since I was there for the doorbusters.  It pays to have your birthday 2 weeks after Black Friday...no guilt in buying things for yourself.  Happy Birthday to ME!  LOL!!)

Upload your creation with Jean's sketch HERE by Friday, November 30th.  If you include at least one Waltzingmouse Stamps image on your project, you will be eligible to be the randomly-selected player who will win a WMS stamp set of choice!

REMINDER:  Sweet Cathy Weber has organized the second annual "Waltzingmouse Stamps Holiday Card Exchange!"  I participated last year and it was SO much fun to get some WMS happy mail.  Sign up in the forum HERE.  You have until Monday, December 3rd to add your name to the list!!

Supplies:
Stamps:  2011 Holiday Ornaments, Waltzingmouse Stamps
Paper:  My Mind's Eye "Christmas Wish" collection, PTI white
Ink:  Fresh Ink in Red Currant, Memento Tuxedo Black
