Swap #6 Done!!!



This card was inspired by Dawn and her great video, If you have not checked out her site it really is fun. I love the Polka Dot Background Stamp ( yeah not retired!!), Other stamps: Everything Baby and Fun & Fast Notes. Inks: Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, Black, Baja Breeze. Paper: Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose. 1/4 in hole punch, 1 in hole punch, Any Scallop punch will work. Ribbon: Light Pink Gingham.This was the swap I came up with when I was told our Women in Ink group was swapping at our dinner at the Olive Garden. I thought "oh my another 30 cards"...I'm tired...Then I made 60 of them cuz they were so cute and I thought some women are going to have full cards like this to swap also. Ok I'm done for a while...I will be posting from convention if my wireless card and wifi is cooperating. Bye for now!! Wish me a safe driving Motorhome trip to Utah and back!!!!

Swap Card # 3 Oh yeah I'm getting there!!

Here we go Swap share #3 and counting!! This card was fun but quite a bit of piecing together with the old 2 way glue. The original idea came from Sue Duffy a few weeks back. This new Bella Rose paper really lends itself quite nicely to a quilt design like this. The triangles are a 1 3/8 Sq. Punch cut diagonal. The circles are the 1 1/4 and 1 inch punches. The red background is 4 1/8 x 4 1/8. I took this piece and used my Scor-Pal to mark where my "squares" were going to be. This helped greatly with placement of the pieces. The center is up on Dimensionals. The new In Colors 08 that I used were Pirouette Pink, Kiwi Kiss, and Riding Hood Red...same for the inks.
