...wanna see some more? and Competition!

ED- The competition is now closed and winners have been posted, BUT there's always the BIGGIE, keep your eyes peeled!!!

Another peep at what is coming for May, I will be releasing 8 new clear photoplymer stamp sets on May 1st!!! I took the opportunity to have a big launch as it marks the first year of trading for Waltzingmouse Stamps.

A year ago I started selling my clear stamps form a little blog and i am delighted to still be here one year later. All due to my lovely customers, Thank you.

I will be running a shipping promotion on May 1st and May 2nd, folks whose orders exceed £50 will receive free shipping, wherever you are USA, Canada, Australia etc. All store purchases will count, even digi's!

And today I fancy having a little competition here on the old blog. Here's what I want you to do:

Leave a comment on this post, include your name. Then go and tell a stamping friend about our first birthday celebrations. Ask your friend to leave a comment on this post and to mention your name, they might post something like "Hello, I'm Joan Smith and Betty Marbles sent me to say hi!"

On Tuesday night I will pick a random pair of buddies from the comments to each win a stamp set of their choice! I will need to be able to 'tie' you both together so make sure your buddy knows to mention your name!

So off you go!! lo, and spread the word...and don't forget to mention that as well as this wee competition, folks should really be keeping an eye on the old blog for news of a HUGE Grand prize competition....
