Monthly Swap

Hi Stampers!

Thought I might show everyone my monthly card swap.  What's a SWAP?  Well, every month the ladies on my Stampin'Up! team, do a monthly swap.  Each one of us takes a turn and chooses the colors, idea, etc we would like to see.  We then let the rest of the team know and each of us has to make a card for each team member. You would make all the same card and mail them to the other team members and of course, they do the same.  We have four members on our team, whats really cool is you receive four different cards, all following the same theme.  It's quite fun!!  As I was the member this month to choose the colors, etc, I decided that I would like a Christmas theme in " Blues, whites and silvers", so with no further ado - here is the cards I am sending out.  As I receive mine, I will post them for you all to see.

Need a card & a coffee!

Hi everyone, Well we're all back to normal here on the Noel Shore.  As it turned out the wind blew and the rain came, but the worst was the loss of power for 24hrs.  Oh how I miss electricity.  Anyway, we are now back up and running and today I've decided to take the BIG step and post my very first original card. 

This is a great little  "pick me up card",  you could send to a friend and invite over for a coffee/tea.  Maybe someone new on the block, even hand deliver it.  What an awesome way to say " Hello".

 List of supplies:
  • Morning Cup stamp set 
  • Whisper white paper
  • Black paper
  • DP ( designer paper ) is Elegant Soiree
  • Baja Breeze
  • Ribbon is Chantilly Lace -  new ribbon which is awesome
  • New Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch  - if you don't have ribbon in the color you want, use this punch, it's absolutely perfect!
Well there you go.  I expect to see all kinds of these cards going around the neighbourhood now.  Have a great day everyone.
