You may remember that a couple months ago, Claire, the owner of Waltzingmouse Stamps, announced that she would be releasing new stamp sets every other month. On the off-months, Claire and the design team share more ideas for the stamp sets released the previous month as well as one of the older stamp sets. Today is the first day of the June S.O.A.P. (Stamp of Approval).

For my first card, I decided to pull out the Say it Loud stamp set that released last month along with the Very Vintage Labels No. 5 and Musical Backgrounds stamp sets.
I stamped the sheet music with versafine onyx black ink on white cardstock and stitched it to a red cardstock mat. Then, I stamped the label using Tulip ink from Close to My Heart and the sentiment using black ink. I die cut the label using a label 5 nestability die. (I love how so many of the Waltzingmouse stamps coordinate with Spellbinder's dies!) I added some crocheted lace and leaf green wrinkle ribbon. I tied a red button in the center of my bow with some hemp twine from Close to My Heart. The felt rolled roses were cut by hand. I used the Martha Stewart branch punch to cut the greenery and added some pearls to the centers of my roses.
Hop on over to the rest of the design team ladies' blogs to find lots more inspiration using the stamp sets released last month:
Have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by!
