It's day three of the August Waltzingmouse New Release Preview Posts! Have you been enjoying the peeks of the new sets so far? Today, the design team is sharing peeks of the following new sets: Little Lanterns, Bright Season, and Light of the World Sentiments!
On my card I used the lantern, candle, wick, light rays, & leaves from the new Bright Season set. I swooned when I saw Claire's new lanterns! They are so detailed and gorgeous! I also love how the different elements (candle, light rays, flame, etc.) are separate stamps as they make it so easy to create multi colored scenes!
These lanterns reminded me so much of my husband's home in Switzerland. I first met his parents the Christmas before we got married and I still remember (and love) all of the decorations (especially the decorated lanterns) they displayed! So, naturally, I thought of them when making this card and used the German Christmas greeting from the Nutcracker Sweet set!
For some added detail, I embossed the large doily from the Dainty Doilies 2 - Small set on bottom layer. It's hard to see them in this photo, but the holly berries are actually rhinestones that I "painted" to match using my Copic Markers. I also added the tiniest dab of Diamond Stickles to the base of the flame...just enough to sparkle a bit.
Ready for some more Waltzingmouse inspiration? Here's the list of ladies that are sharing peeks today...
