Tri-fold

This was my other swap for the Mingle.  This was was a SU Only swap.  The rules were: SU! ONLY FULL CARD SWAP


This should be a full card with ONLY current SU! products used on it. Showcase your best work!

I did not create the design of this card, I honestly am not sure who did however my upline showed me how to put it all together and I picked out my own stampsets to use with it. 
 
I used Baja breeze, Always artichoke, Vanilla and Springtime Vintage Dsp for m papers, and then baja breeze, and artichoke for my inks.  When you open this there is a piece of vanill on the inside of the artichoke piece to write what you like or sign it.  This is also the card I included with my door prize give away.

Swaps I have gotten

These are some cards I have recieved in the past year that I just didn't have time to get posted The first is French Foliage from Carol, I think she did a wonderful job on colors.  The next is Serene Snowflake but I don't remember who sent me that one, I used it for my Christmas cards this year because I just loved the color combo and the rhinestones.  The group of girls I swap with always do such a great and wonderful job and to share ALL of the cards would be soo many because there are twenty of us in the group who do two cards each.  I will just pick a few each time to share and try to get everyone in there somewhere so you can see how talented they all are.

The Artistic Etchinings is from Judy, I like this set alot.  There have been some really cute cards made with them including this one that Judy made.

Georgia sent this one, she used the new embossing folder along with the new Bliss stamp set.  I think this is a simple yet cute card - job well done.

 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 
This one was made by Sara, what a great color combo of Gray, White, Pink and Red.  I think her layout was very cute making the hears look like they are falling down.  I really love this stamp set too.

This wonderful Punch Bunch was made by Ann, I love her color combo and to put the google eyes was an awesome touch.  She did a wonderful job w/the punches and placements.

And last is from my upline Joyce, she is a great and wonderful lady.  I just love the meetings at her home because she is so great to be around, she does such a great job inspiring you and is always so upbeat.  Thank you Joyce.

I look forward to the swaps that I get from these girls - thank you all for letting me be a part of your great swapping group.  Job well done ladies.

Swaps

Here are my swaps for the new catalogs coming out "Sale-a-bration" and "Occasions Mini"  I did base my cards off of other ideas I had seen but changed some things on them to make them more of my own.  Some of them I changed the colors and stamp set, some I changed up the design a little.  I could not tell you now which belonged to what as I don't keep the ideas, I see them and then go home and make up my cards.  For my first one I used Chocolate Chip, Rose Red, and Vanilla.  I put my scallops up on dimensionals and added a few pearls.

 

For the second one I used Cherry Cobbler, Black, and White.  I love this color combo and this stamp set is now becoming one of my favorites the more I see made with it. 

For the next, I think this one is truly my favorite of the four.  I am a big U of M fan, so this color combo is become one of my favorites however I still use alot of pinks.  The base is Night of Navy, then embossed is the So Saffron.  I stamped Noteably Ornate, cutting out the bird and punching out the saying.  My scallop, saying and bird are up on dimensionals.  The Build a Blossom was a bit challenging for me at first but I do think my flower turned out pretty cute and to top it off I added a button on a glue dot.

And last I used Whisper white and Mambo Melon.  Pink is truly one of my favorite colors so I use it alot and love that we have so many choices of pinks to choose from.  I used a wave cutter to make the curve on my pink.  Stamped my saying in basic black.  The butterfly is on a glue dot so his wings are up and the flowers on the wave part are on dimensionals.  A basic yet cute card.
