February Team Meeting Swap – My fancy fold
February Team Meeting Swap Yes, I had fun with the February Team Meeting Swap. The theme was using your favorite bundle/suite of product from the Jan-June Mini catalog. They all were slightly different in that some had Snails and some had Mushrooms. All the coloring was slightly different too. The background is the Snail Mail DSP. You know it was difficult picking just one. Which is your favorite?? The Snail or the Mushrooms (below)?? For this snail, I used the Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, and Magenta Madness Stampin’ Blends. The Mushrooms turned out super cute. I did however use a lot of Stampin’ Blend colors for these. Here is the…

Oval Occasions for Swap Here is the first of two cards using Oval Occasions for Swap that I did last week. This very Springy stamp set and coordinating punch is from the January – June Mini. It is for a Birthday card, but this could very easily be an Easter or with Love card too. I choose to use Crumb Cake as my neutral (shocking) adding in Blushing Bride and Blackberry Bliss. OHHH yes that is a sprig of new Blackberry Bliss ribbon. I wanted to share a BIG tip. However, this first, there are 13 stamps in this stamp set. The face of this card has seven of them.…

Thanks a bunch Sunflower Celebration.
Thanks a bunch Sunflower I am a huge fan of the outline of this HUGE sunflower. For our Inky Whisper Sisters team meeting in August the theme was Melon Mambo. I did add Granny Apple Green and a little Flirty Flamingo. How do you think the thanks a bunch sunflower turned out? This is a very summery look. I did try to be strategic where I put the dimensionals. Along with the stem of the little sprig. In this photo you can really see the embossing folder too. That is Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. hummm, I wonder what this would look like in more purples and cream. What colors…

Resilient, Strong and Beautiful…
There are huge benefits to becoming a demonstrator… here is a HUGE way… Swaps. When in Michigan with 86 demonstrators you bet I got sooo many amazing cards in trade for this.

Swaps are an amazing way to get ideas and to share your ideas with others. Here is a bonus… this beauty is a fancy fold. An easy one at that, just fold over half way and pretty! Here are the scores… a 4 1/4 by 11 piece of cardstock long at the…
