Waltzingmouse May Pajama Party

Howdy everyone!!  It's PJ time over at the Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog, and we have 4 awesome inspirational challenges for you!  I used two of the challenges as inspiration:  Man of the Moment and Old Pajamas, which is the set Man of the Hour.

I used one sketch and one technique to make 4 different cards.
For all the cards, I just colored directly onto an acrylic block (Acrylic Stamping) with Tombow markers, misted the block with different amounts of spraying for each pattern, and stamped it onto White Cardstock (PTI).  After they dried, I stamped sentiments from the WMS set Man of the Hour onto them.

For the background above, I misted the block quite heavily to get the colors to blend.

That's it for today's projects.  I hope you join in on the fun.  There is a prize to be won, so head on over to the Waltzingmouse Blog for all the details.  

And, that's not all.  I have some very exciting Waltzingmouse news to share.  You can now purchase Waltzingmouse Stamps and dies at Addicted to Rubber stamps.  In fact, the set I used today is available there.  Also, they are having a sale.  Use the code 'WELCOME' (on the shopping cart page) to receive 10% off the site.

I thought it would be fun to participate in the Featured Stamper challenge over on Splitcoaststampers.  The FS for the week is Janette Olen (Blessingsx3), and she has a wonderful gallery in which to choose a card to case.  I chose THIS ONE.

I had never stamped with my acrylic blocks before and thought it would be fun to give it a try.  I love the texture it gave.  I loved the colors Janette used, so I just changed the coral to a red because I wanted to include a heart.  I also loved all the white space and the clean, crisp style.  So I kept my card CAS and just added a bit of texture to the background and a diecut (Tim Holtz) felt heart.

The sentiment is from the Waltzingmouse Stamps set Playful Pinwheels.  I love the fun font.

That's it.  I'll have another post ready in a bit using the same Waltzingmouse stamp set, to fit another Splitcoaststampers challenge.

Thanks for dropping by!!
Have a great week, and
Happy Stamping!
