Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge. The entire Waltzingmouse Stamps Design Team and Mischief Makers hope that your holidays were amazing and that all your crafty dreams were realized.
As we move into the final days of 2012, we look forward to 2013 and with a new year brings new and exciting changes. It’s been decided that we will be shutting down the weekly Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge. We hope that you have enjoyed these weekly challenges, and we will continue to spark your creativity with periodic challenges that will be held on the Waltzingmouse Stamps blog so please check Claire’s blog for upcoming details. Before we sign off on the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenges, we have one last challenge for you...one more opportunity to share your creative love for Waltzingmouse Stamps’. Let’s begin with the Top Mouse Winners from our last challenge.
Congratulations to our Top Mouse winners this week. Wow...what imaginative creations. If you ladies don’t have a Top Mouse Blog Badge, or would like to update your current Top Mouse Badge to our updated Top Mouse Blog Badge, send me an e-mail at lmercurio at sbcglobal dot net and I will provide you with the HTML code for the new badge. We hope you will display it proudly. Thank you for your participation and support of the challenge.
And now for the lucky winner to receive a complimentary Waltzingmouse Stamps set of choice:
Congratulations, Camilla! Please send Claire an e-mail at Claire.brennan1@ntlworld.com. Kindly provide her with your contact information and set choice, and she will pack up your selection and send it on its way to you.
We have one last great inspirational sketch for you today. Our sketch this week was created by our Mischief Maker, Edna Morrisedie. As you can see from the Mischief Makers’ and Design Team samples, there are many interpretations of the sketch. Set your mojo free and go with the flow.
To help motivate you, take a peek at the wonderful projects the Mischief Makers have for you today:
...and some inspiration from Design Team member,
Remember to post your projects using the Inlinkz link tool below, no later than 12:00 noon Central time on Friday, January 4, 2013. We will announce the winner of the stamp set and the Final Top Mouse Award winners on Saturday, January 5, 2013 as we say a fond farewell to the sketch challenge. Please use a direct link to your project and feel free to enter as many times as you like!

Oh how I wish I could be sure of time to participate in this last auspicious challenge, but that I cannot be assured. So, I just wanted to make sure to pop in and say thank you. Thank you for all the boundless creative offerings that have generously been on display by both the DT and the MM, but also for all the beautiful creations shared by the WMSC participants. I can definitely say that I have never been as inspired by a challenge group on a whole as I have been whilst here. Again, thank you! All the very best for 2013 and beyond! x
Thankyou so much! I am thrilled to be picked among the Top Mice and I will display the badge with pride! Ger x.
I'm so sad!! I love this challenge, and will really miss my Saturday morning fix of WMSC! I look forward to seeing the new ideas for challenges from Claire in 2013, there are lots of avid Mouse fans who will miss this fab challenge!
Thanks to all the Mischief Makers past and present for the constant inspiration with Claire's designs.
So sad... okay, well I'll make sure my WMS stamps get lots of inky love with other challenges, but it was always fun to "have to" pull them out every week. Fabulous cards, as always.
Oh, I'm so sad to hear that this is the last sketch challenge!! Thank you so much for all the great cards and inspiration you gave! I really loved playing with all of you! Looking forward to hear the news for the year 2013! Wishing you all a great and happy new year!!
No more weekly sketch challenges - oh no ! I must admit that I don't get to participate as much as I would like, but I always look through the beautiful samples, it keeps me in tune with my WMS stamp sets, gives me ideas and sparks creativity. I will miss it :( but looking forward to seeing what you decide to do instead in 2013.
Oh I am so sad to hear this! I don't get to play along nearly as much as I'd like, but the WMS sketches are by far my most favourites to use. I will miss this post every Saturday!
What am I going to do every Saturday morning now?So sorry to hear this.
Thank you so much for all the great cards inspiration
hugs Pia
When I first read your post title I thought you meant last challenge of the year. How surprised was I when I realised you meant the last one EVER! I'll be sorry to see your challenges go as I have loved doing the sketches every week, but I understand time moves on and you might want to do other things. please keep this blog open though so we can all come back for some much loved inspiration! Good luck to you Claire and all the DT and Mischief Makers. I'll still be stalking the WM blog each month to see what you have released!!!
Just got back to the US after our Christmas hols - which were fab!
First, thanks so much for picking my Santa Cameo as one of the Top Mice - I'm absolutely thrilled and in great company too!
Second, sob!!! So sad to see that this is the last WMS challenge. I echo all the previous comments - I will miss my Saturday morning fix, but will be checking in regularly to see what's new!
Wishing Claire, the Design Team and the Mischief Makers a very Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.
Hugs Deborah xx
This is sad, I will miss the WMSC . I look forward to what might be next. Happy New Year!
Just got home from a trip to the Midwest and saw this was the last challenge!! I too am sad to see it go....loved my Saturday morning WMS fix!! Am excited to see what Claire has in store for 2013!! Now, I have two evenings to whip something up for the last sketch (work better not be crazy when I get back tomorrow!)
Just posted my card... ladies, a mini tribute to you on my post :) Many thanks!!!
Oh No....ditto all the above! But I'm sure you'll have some new challenges for us all in 2013. Thanks so much for all the inspiration...I was stalking this site way before I even bought any Waltzingmouse stamps as the creativity was so abundant. Looking forward to seeing what's new for this year!
I'm so sad it's ending...but so grateful I had the opportunity to play. Thank you for ALL your hard work and beautiful sketches. Y'all blessed me with your encouraging comments, generous prizes and faithful craftiness!!!
wow, I just heard the news! I loved this challenge too as it gave me time to play with some of my favourite stamp sets. I'll be definitely checking out the other new challenges. Thanks for so many wonderful sketches and inspiring cards :)
Sad sad day... so many lovely memories and friends! Thanks to the DT and Mischief Makers for all their gorgeous creative wonders!
hugs
So sad to see this weekly challenge end. I haven't played along for very long but will miss the regular inspiration from the mischief makers and design team members, and so many wonderful projects have been posted by participants as well !
I really feel I've upped my game since playing along with this challenge.
Thank you for all your incredible projects and encouraging comments Mischief Makers, and a big thank you to Lynn and Claire for organizing this challenge - looking forward to see what you have coming up in the future.
