First I'll start with the swap card. This second swap group has a list of swaps coming up. Each person decides which swap interests them and they sign up for it. Usually you sign up by the first of a month and your card must go out by the 15th. Or you sign up by the 15th and your card goes out on the 30th. You can sign up way in advance if you are really organized and will remember! Even if you don't remember, the group posts who you send to in enough time to get it all done. It's a really good way to get involved without being committed to an 8 week swap-for 8 weeks in a row. Either way it is a lot of fun and I really enjoy doing them!My card image is from Shirley's 2 Girls and is stamped with Adirondak ink and colored with COPIC markers. I used my Spellbinders nestabilities for the framed matting, 2 different cuttlebug embossing folders and Cuttlebug slider dies. The paw print is something I picked up at Hobby Lobby quite a while ago and I can't remember who made the ribbon. The copic markers I used were E33, G09, R08, YR04, E37, E31, E35, RV14, G02 and C1 and the colorless blender!
The wedding card is one almost exactly like one I made before and posted. I had this one stored in case I ever needed a really nice wedding card. It is a large card made from a whole sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock. I think the size makes it much more elegant...plus you can add more embellishments on a card that size.
I smudged my uncle's last name at the bottom of the "S" circle to protect his identity! (just in case you are wondering about the smeared area)...
Thank you for checking in on my progress...
