Friends of WMS May Blog Waltz!

Welcome to the May Friends of Waltzingmouse Blog Waltz. The theme this month is Birthdays since May is the 1 year 'birthday' of Waltzingmouse Stamps!! Check out all the fun over at the WMS Forum in the Play Room where you'll find everyone that is participating in the waltz.

I just love Claire's WMS piece of cake template and I wanted to try and make a masculine slice this time. (see my other cakes here) I found some great textured Bazzill card stock at Michaels - the dark brown 'frosting' has swirls in it and the tan 'cake' has embossed circles. Then I just added brown buttons like chocolate chips or M&M's on the frosting!

Of course - I had to make a masculine style card to go along with the birthday cake! So I started by using the same papers and buttons. The dotted circle is from Faux Fun Circles, the sentiment is from Free Spirit Sentiments and the 'wave' is from Free Spirit - Boy. I used Mercy's Tuesday sketch for my card design.

For the inside of my card - I adhered two panels of the dotted Bazzill on either side of this great Irish Proverb from Words of Wisdom!
I lined my cake with Claire's Digitial Paper - Celtic Squares.

Remember to count how many teacups I have 'hidden' on my card picture above - tally up all the tea cups on the Design Team posts and post your total in the Playroom of the WMS Forum - one person with the correct answer will win a stamp set of their choice. And one random winner will be chosen from all participants in the Waltz!
