I made this card for a monthly swap group I'm in where we were divided up into groups of 4-5 and we just mail the other gals in our SUFriends4Ever swap group a card that we made that month. It's really easy - no themes, and you can just make an extra of whatever you're making and send it out. Well, since I hardly stamp anymore with the husband deployed, I am not able to "just make an extra" so mine are actually made specifically for this swap. Thank goodness it's only 4 that I have to make, so I can keep up with it. This time I did 2 and 2. Two ladies will get this card, and 2 will get the card that I am posting in my next post on Saturday. To be honest - even though Baja Breeze is my favorite color ever, I like the other card better. It's more summery - bright and cheerful. :)
In case you hadn't noticed, the days I tend to post new posts on (unless something comes up that I just have to add in) are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. It's working out pretty well for me so far, but I also will have to fill in Saturday with something other than my DT work for Card Patterns since my term is now up. It will be interesting to see if I can squeeze in some extra stamping when it doesn't have a "deadline" attached!! ;)

This is really pretty. I broke down and ordered another pack of this paper as part of my hoarding process this year. I will sorely miss Baja Breeze.
ReplyDeleteThis is sooo pretty! I love your flowers stamped in two colors on the white and the scalloped edge and layered buttons! Darling!
