Final "STUFF Swap" Card

Here is my final Stuff Swap card.  I began with a pretty Sweet Pea image colored with Copic markers.
I layered it over some dp after punching an edge.  Layered that over another dp and onto the craft base.



The "Stuff" used for this card was flowers.  We had to use them in any way, any style or number for the Stuff Swap.  I only had room for one as it was very big.  Of course it is a Prima "Calypso".

I used my "new" Viva Decor pen "Black Pearl" to make tiny pearls along the Martha Stewart punched edge.  A portion of the verse that comes with this plate #64 was inked and stamped onto a word window
punched piece and matted with black.  A faceted black gem sits in the flower center.

If you are thinking of getting a Viva Decor pen I will tell you they are well worth the price.  I was able to make some very tiny faux pearls that do not look handmade and of course were much easier to place exactly where I wanted!

Another SWAP Card!


This card was one I made for a STUFF swap.  We had to use eyelets or brads in any way or shape.

I began by brayering with a K-Pad over some glossy white paper....3 different pads
for 3 different looks.
Then I stamped the images (all by CTMH) and embossed them, cutting each one.
I layered them onto some yellow paper and then on black and finally on blue.
Before layering on the blue base I attached a circular brad to mimic some of the 
stamp designs and to tie in with the swap requirements.

AAA Swap Card-Buttons!

I will be totally honest with you.  I had some swap cards needing to be done.  I also had to produce some sample cards for About Art Accents.  Soooo I made this card do "double-duty"!

I stamped the image by AAA on white paper then cut a mask for the clouds.  I sponged some blues and greens around before removing the mask.  I used a smaller sponge for the yellow inside the carriage.

The swap theme was to use buttons in any way so I attached 2 buttons for wheels on the carriage.
I love those AAA silhouette stamps, you can do so much with them!
