A GREAT big Happy April to you!! :-) I'm not much of a practical "jokester", so April Fool's Day is not all that exciting...but the fact that it is now April has me all a flutter!! I cannot WAIT for Spring!! Wooohoooo!
Speaking of being excited, today is the release day for Waltzingmouse Stamps! The "Free Spirit Boy" and "Free Spririt Sentiments" are now available! To celebrate, the DT is putting on a blog "waltz" (a blog hop Waltzingmouse style)! If you've just stopped by to see what I'm up to today (big hugs to you :-), then you will want to pop over to Claire's (the beginning of the hop) so you won't miss any of the "Free Sprirt" Inspiration! There are also prizes to be won, so make sure to leave some love along the way (check out the deets on Claire's blog)!
For my card, I used both the Free Spirit Boy and Free Spirit Sentiments sets paired with some Little Yellow Bicylce patterned paper. I wanted more of a "grungy" look, so I used my new Pumice Stone Distress Ink pad and swiped it across the different layers (also known as the direct to paper technique).
Next stop on the blog "waltz" is Anya!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs, Laurie
