Waltzingmouse Rustic Christmas


Waltzingmouse always makes the most gorgeous Christmas sets, and this year is no exception.  They recently issued two new sets, Rustic Christmas and Scandi Doodle Christmas, which I bought immediately.  Love images that have built in sentiments. 

While they are not yet stocked in the US, there is a code to get the equivalent of the cost of US shipping.  Mine came in less than a week!

And do we love this background paper, which is tissue paper I found half price (.75) at Target?  Yes, I think we do.   It also comes with 2 sheets of copper tissue paper.

I adhered it to cardstock with Mono Multi glue and, while still wet, die cut. Going through the Big Shot flattened out the paper and glue.  If I wasn't married, I swear I'd marry my Big Shot.


Supplies:
MOOD WHEN DONE = Awesome!!

Chapter Two of How Stamping Destroyed My Life will be published on Sunday, October 4th, unless Hurricane Joachin hits us and we lose power.  Aack.

Genius! I bought the matching notecards, but didn't even think about using the tissue.

Oh this is a show stopper for sure! I would say that tissue paper is a perfect match for the deer! I will have to go to target now! Love this a lot Joan!

This is a great masculine card Joan! I never would have thought of adhering tissue paper to cardstock - what type of glue did you use? I haven't ordered these stamps yet.... but you are pushing me over the edge!

Hi Susan. Thanks. I used Tombow Mono Multi glue. placed the glue on the cardstock and then placed the tissue on top. Then I ran it through my big shot to die cut. That spread out the glue and you really cannot see any bumps. I think it helps that it is a plaid tissue paper with a little more body than regular tissue paper. The stamps are really nice!

Nice stamp and love the tissue paper and die cut panels. Very manly, but I like this kind of rustic card, too.

Fabulous card. Popped over here after seeing this on Claire's blog and really like all the cards I've seen.
