So with the August-December mini catalogue that launched last month I joined two card swaps. One with my smaller more direct team and another with my larger team. I always love joining card swaps because the cards are really nice and it lets me see what people are doing with other stamp sets, etc. I’m still waiting on a few more cards from my larger team swap so in the meantime I thought I would share the two cards I got from my smaller team.
The rules for both swaps are the same… you can only use stamps and embellishments from the August-December mini catalogue. For my card I used the Poinsettia Petals stamp set; you can check it out here – Embossing with Poinsettia Petals. Both cards that I got back are fall themed.
This first card is a simple thank you card using the Beautiful Autumn bundle with one of the Acorn Trinkets and some of the Brushed Metallic cardstock. It came from one of my best friends who also happens to be my upline, Stephanie Nash.
The other card from this August-December mini catalogue card swap is a Halloween card. I’m not much for making cards for Halloween so I really like when I get them in card swaps. This one was made by Elicia Zebroski.
I love all the Magic in this Night Designer Series Paper and how she used it for the card. It kind of reminds me of the Scrappy Strip Technique that I’ve done before. What I love even more is that she embossed the DSP with the Cobwebs 3D embossing folder. Here’s a closer look…
I love these cards and love my team! They’re such a great group of women. Stay tuned for future posts with some of my favourites from my big team August-December mini catalogue card swap. I’m still waiting for a few more and I’m waiting til I get them all to open them. It’s starting to get to me though…. it’s getting harder to not sneak peeks at what I already have.
