Dance Like No One’s Watching!

Dance like no one’s watching!  Because they aren’t!  They are probably looking on their phones. And they might just be watching animal videos!

———————————————————————

Hello!  I hadn’t yet used this cute duck image from the Mostly Mice stamp set, and I needed a birthday card for a young person, so I thought I would use it with a funny saying. 


I colored the image simply with alcohol markers and then used a die to cut an aperture in some fun patterned paper.  I stamped the funny sentiment from the Monster Mash set with blue ink onto some yellow cardstock.

I like mixing and matching sets, and I do think this is pretty funny.  I hope it will bring a smile to the face of the little boy I will be giving to!

Do you mix and match stamp sets?  Or do you usually stick to stamps and sentiments within a set? I am interested - let me know in the comments!

Thank you for visiting!

Oh, how cute this is! What happy geese! I love that paper in the background. I love banner paper but I am never sure how to feature it. You did a beautiful job! I love to mix and match stamp sets!

Fabulous combination of mixing the sets and what a fun card for a young person. Yes I try to mix my stamps etc but often fail! x

I think this is a hoot. This sentiment is so well known, and to see ducks "dancing" is funny. Cute banner paper too.

Those ducks look like they are having so much fun! Great greeting! It looks like these stamps should be in the same set; they go perfectly together!! I bet the little boy you are giving this to will be amused!

Like you, I often mix sets when creating cards.

This is so cute and festive with all the banners in that background paper! Love those silly ducks too! I pretty much always mix stamp sets and sentiments - whatever works for the card I'm making is what I'll use.

that is such a fun stamp and I love how you paired them with that sentiment!! Fun party paper too! Like the framing of it with your die into the background paper too!

This is such a fun card! I love how you put the geese together and they are perfect for that sentiment. Sometimes I use the sentiment that goes with a specific image, but I like to use various ones. Many times the sentiments that come with sets are not what I would EVER say so I don't use them. I am fussy about sentiments and will not use anything that I would not say in talking to someone.
