Sweet and Simple SWAP...

I was in another SWAP recently...this time, a Shoebox SWAP at Pennie's. I created this sweet and simple card using a color combination inspired by Pennie...Pale Plum and Purely Pomegranate! I love these colors together! The little glob in the center of the flower is actually a Mini Glue Dot, used to hold the Dazzling Diamonds Glitter in place. This didn't photograph very well...it's much better IRL. I also used a Glue Dot to hold the Ribbon Slider and Double Stitched Ribbon in place. It's a little hard to see, but I scored 2 lines down the left side of the cardstock panel for extra "texture".

DD prom pics...

Well, you all picked the same gown my DD liked. It is actually deep purple in color but photographed almost blue. Doesn't she look beautiful?!!!! more pics soon...

Last of the Swaps....

Mary Ann R. sent these swaps to me...all the way from Florida! Although I loved this set (Live Your Dreams) when I saw it in the Ocassions Mini catalog, I resisted purchasing it. After seeing Mary Ann's beautiful cards made with this set, I had to own it. I especially like the greeting for upcoming graduations. The Afternoon Tea Designer Paper is so pretty and coordinates with the stamp set. I now own the stamp set and a small, yet growing stack of the Afternoon Paper....shhhh!

Swaps, part 3...

Another group of great swap cards...this time from Janice L. Janice used Lots of Dots jumbo wheel, Phrases for a Friend and Friendly Flowers stamp sets from the Occasions Mini catalog. Didn't Janice do a great job!

more swaps....

My sideline, Kim Mullin created these wonderful cards. She used the set named Big on Spring from the Occasions Mini catalog. I love the variety of cards here and the colors are so soothing. The Dazzling Diamond glitter on the bride card really pops!

Swap results...

My creative, talented Upline, Pennie, made these SWAP cards, using a new stamp set named "Just Celebrate". Aren't these great! The versatile set is available in the Occasions Mini Catalog. Stampin Up has extended the deadline to order from this "Mini" until June 30. All the swap cards I'm posting use sets from the Occasions Mini.
