Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #66

It's Saturday!
Whoo-hoo!
And you know what Saturday's bring...
another sketch challenge with Waltzingmouse...
Yea!!
Did you catch the release earlier this week?
Did you die over the new sets?
I did!
And now I'm waiting for enough time to pass so that I can begin stalking the mailman...
I know his route.

But this week we have a fabulous sketch from the wonderfully talented blows-my-mind-with-her-creativity Claire...

And because I am so not good with shape cards I did this...


After numerous attempts at a circle card that just didn't make the cut...
literally...
it's a circle...
on a rectangle!
*giggle*
I just love Sewing Box Christmas...
makes me think of the country...
homemade...
family and friends...
and it just gives me a warm feeling inside.
And you just tell me how can you not love a stamp set that says all that?

OK...
so are you ready to play now?
Come on over to the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog and check out all the fabby yumminess the rest of the Mischief Makers have created for you to feast your eyes on...
