3X3 Swap

I've got it! Finally I've been able to come up with my 3x3 Card. I knew I wanted to use the Party Hearty set (new for fall caddy!) that I got after regional but I couldn't ever come up with anything. Well today I was painting my toes and they are the pretty pink color- Avon Punch. So I went with it and this is what I came up with! It's a little blurry but you get the idea! I believe I should change the ribbon color to turquoise or something to keep with the bright colors!

Dream Swap Finally



Ok, well I got my project for my DREAM SWAP and I'm super excited. I want to work on it now but of course I don't have the stuff! Gotta wait for my friend in the little brown truck to bring it to me in a week or so. Here is a pic though of what I'll be working on!

Dream Swap

So its pretty hot out today here in Wisconsin which is unusal for a Memorial day. Usually its rainy and yucky and a perfect stamping day. Since I'm not feeling 100% today I decided to keep it inside and work on my swaps for convention. Here is my prototyp so far for my "Dream" swap. I gotta make 10 of these babies so I need all the practice I can get!
I will be making cards to go inside, probably 5. The bag needs some embellishments on the outside but I haven't decided what yet. I won't be using this paper since it retires at the end of June. I'm debating whether to wait fot the preview caddy use that paper or to use one thats already in the catalog. Decisions decisions. It went together pretty quick so I think I could be 10 of these in a few weeks. July's going to be a busy month!

Paper Clip Swap

Well so far I have joined 3 different swaps for convention. I plan on making my first time very enjoyable and fun! I've finished creating my first swap and just have to assemble, some how I'm out of pop dots!

First Blog

Well I decided to start a blog since I lost my voice today! I can't talk to anyone about what I'm stampin' today but I can sure write about it! Also a reason for starting is I'm going to convention! I will be working on lots of project and fantastic ideas in the next two months and want to share them with everyone. Hope you enjoy!
