Waltzing Mouse Stamps Preview day 2 ; USA 1776

It's the second day of Waltzing Mouse Stamps  May release previews and today we have made cards with a set I absolutely LOVE; USA 1776. I was an au pair year in Lexington, MA and had the time of my Life (-: Just can't Believe that it is more than 20 years ago now... Anyway USA and the Boston area are so dear to me so to get to craft with this set was absolutely wonderful - I could play with all the red, blue and white papers that I love +  it actually brought back a lot of fun memories as I was working!
 
 

 
 

Now make sure you pop over to see what the other WMS ladies have created with this set:

                                                                       Anya Schrier
 

Tomorrow I'll be back to show how well this set works with the country labels set that we introduced yesterday - so be sure to come back for that!!!

Have a great day, hugs, Karin

Ok , Karin I LOVE this card! I am going to have to have this set as we got married on the big bicentennial of America! 1976! Great job! But then I knew it would be a knock out!
