When we got back earlier this week I was delighted to find that the Christmas card I made for Ben - Follow Yonder Star - had been picked as one of the Top Mice for WMSC128. Then as I read further down the post I saw that the current Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge - WMSC129 is the last one!! Sob!!! I think this was one of the first challenges I played along with and I ALWAYS check this blog first on a Saturday morning. I shall miss the challenge, but look forward to seeing what Claire and her team have in store for us in 2013. Thank you ladies - it's been fun!!
I had to make a card using my favourite Waltzingmouse set - Free Spirit Boy, and I see that I'm not the only one! I used an old Colour Q palette - cQc90.
Stamps: Waltzingmouse - Free Spirit Boy, Playful Pinwheels, Off Beat Backgrounds
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Bashful Blue, Tempting Turquoise, Poppy Parade; Memento - Danube Blue; Versamark
Dies: Spellbinders - Grommet Tags (S4-322)
Accessories: Red ribbon from stash, Clear Embossing powder; White card from stash
I think the chevron stamp is also a favourite - from the top I stamped in Danube Blue, Tempting Turquoise and Bashful Blue and added the bright red ribbon above. I stamped the circles onto white card, inking up with Versamark and then Danube Blue and heat embossing with clear powder. I cut it out and adhered it to the card with dimensional tape. I finished off with a fun and positive sentiment from Playful Pinwheels - stamped in red and coloured with Bashful Blue while in the die. I added a couple of silver brads and attached to the card with dimensional tape. I think this card will go into my stash for the moment, but it's likely to go to Ben.
That's all for now - once again - thanks to Claire and her entire team for such a super sketch challenge. See you soon.

What a fun card Deborah! Love the stamp you used as it seems new to me. I know it will be sad , perfect sentiment! Happy New Year!
Deborah, what a great sketch challenge card. The sentiment is appropos for New Year's, birthday, anniversary, etc. so a perfect stash card! Will see you around the WMS forum and on Claire's blog now, I guess. It will be strange not having the Saturday morning card fix, though!
Lovely, striking card Deborah and a perfect sentiment for the new year! Hope you have a good one!
Love your card. Spooky though..I've used the circles from that set for my card.
Hugs Buf xx
This card is PERFECT for the last WMSC...love that you used your fave set :) The colors are so cheerful and they match the sentiment perfectly...the best IS yet to come! Thanks sooo much for your lovely creations through the years, Deborah! They always inspire! Can't wait to see what WMS creations you make in 2013!! HUGS!
I love the sentiment you chose, and your colors and design work perfectly to highlight it. Great card!
I was sad to read it was the last one too Deb - even though I didn't play every week it was the one I checked first each Saturday too :( Hope they've something exciting in store to replace it with.
Your card is fabulous - you do such brilliant things with that set! Tara x

You have the best attitude Deborah and this time you really came through for me. I've been sad about the WMSC and that sentiment just made me smile. Change is good - but sometimes so hard to embrace! So glad we met through WMSC!
I know what you mean about Saturday mornings, Deborah - I will miss them, too! Congrats on your top mouse nod this past week and I look forward to seeing your creations this new year!
