It's time for another Waltzingmouse Stamps release, and once again Claire has outdone herself. The set we're featuring today is called My Kind of Guy, and it just oozes charm. Perfect for the special guy in your life. I recently purchased some wood pieces from Prima that came in a 9 paneled tray. I thought it would be a fabulous piece to display some "manly" embellishments with these charming sentiments.
I made this for my husband for Father's Day, and since he's a little bit up there in age (52...but shhhhhh), I thought the "I say Old Bean" sentiment was perfect to start the panels off!
I filled the monocle with some Glossy Accents and added some metal embellishments here and there to fit my theme. I love how Claire designed some "banner" sentiments along with some beautifully fonted words and phrases like Kind, Handsome, Gentleman, and more.
Here's a close up of one of the banner sentiments and the word Kind. I LOVE the variety in this set. Did I mention that before? (grin)
As I mentioned earlier, I LOVE the fun sentiments in this set. They're
super fun to put together. And this dotted frame is perfect for framing a sentiment telling
your guy how great he is. I also used the dotted border for the
background.

Fantastic creations!!
Fabulous projects Tosh - especially the altered tray! I bet your husband loved it!
Wow, wow, wow. Love what you created. The tray is just AMAZING. Adore everything! Looks like a fun set.
Wonderful job here Tosh - each one nicer than the next. Love the shadow box and all the bitty details, the pop of color and how clean the second is, and the houndstooth on the last! Really wonderful!
Wonderful projects with this set Tosh! love that shadow box and all the fun elements in it! and the feather on the derby hat is so cute!!
What a great box!! Love the way you filled the cubbies and the two cards are wonderful.
Tosh these are all fantastic! You have really showcased this stamp set and made me want to see more!! And that's saying A LOT when it comes to masculine stamping stuff!
Really like the tray you created. A wonderful gift.
You really showed some range on this one.
hahaha! Very clever - I have not seen any images like these, and I can actually hear the British accent in my mind while reading the sentiments - really cute! Love your display collage done in very gentlemanly colors, and yet, with words of character which really speak about what a true man is - fabulous, Tosh! hugs, de

Great cards and fabulous shadow box.
Love your cards!! The first one almost has a south-west feel to it, and the second card: I wouldn't have thought that a card in just grey and black could look so striking!!
