Welcome to the A Muse Birthday Blog Hop!
A Muse is turning 9 this year! I love hearing of companies that have been around in the industry so long… who have good people and make great products. A Muse is a favorite of mine, so I was honored when they asked me to hop along with them. Thanks, A Muse.
I love the new release from A Muse called Everything's Rosy. So classic. Here is one card I made. It also uses their tiny gingham patterned papers – something I have mentioned loving before. Every color is gorgeous – you can see the multi-pack HERE.
Supplies: A Muse Stamps (Marigold, Solid Marigold, Merci) and papers and notecard; Distress Inks; American Craft button; String
I decided to do one more. Wanted to do a more vintage-look… at least a bit vintagey. 
I stamped the flowers with Versamark Ink on the pink gingham paper and clear embossed. Then I applied lots of Vintage Photo Distress Ink for a resist. I also like the border stamp used as a "frame" for the stamped piece.
Supplies: A Muse Stamps (Scroll Border, Solid Marigold, Merci) and papers; Distress Inks; Clear Embossing Powder; Versamark Ink
And remember how I said that the A Muse people are wonderful? To prove that, they said I could give away some of their goodies. Woohoo! So, just leave a comment here on this post by Sunday, May 9, at 11:59pmEST and they will pick a winner of these two stamps…

I love the embossed gingham flowers, just got some gingham in some pretty bold colors and sizes but this certainly allows to soften the look. Thanks as always for great ideas and inspiration.
