July Cards

This card was made using DCWV paper, Making Memories jewels, and the star is random from a confetti bag.

Also DCWV paper & DCWV stickers

DCWV dot paper, leaves from a decorative branch from Michaels, and basic cardstock. The sewing was done by hand and I used Coluzzle to cut out the letters.

August 1st

My theme for August is going to be MAGENTA. I think it's a really fun color to work with and I love getting creative with mixing and matching colors. Good luck!

August 1st Swap

My theme for our next swap to be mailed on August 1st, I think, will be three circles. You must make sure that there are at least three items on your card that are circles. They can be stamped circles, or circles around letters, or paper circles, whatever you want. They don't all have to be the same either. Good luck!

Cards

Here is my Christmas card and my fall card. I embossed the bottom of the Christmas card with a Cuttlebug folder and the top white part is a vinyl sticker that I designed in Photoshop and cut out with my Silhouette. I stamped the words and then added a snowflake with a brad and some ribbon. I stamped all the leaves with a set from Close to My Heart. I also stamped the happy day and inked all the edges. The paper is kraft paper. I think they turned out good. I also added two cards from my stash since you said you were mailing four cards. I hope you like them!

JULY

Jenn's Theme: Autumn/Fall I like this because it's a cute seasonal way to send a "just because" note to someone (during that season). Happy Making!

July

Since we are almost half over with July we will each post only one theme for this month. All other months we will post two themes and mail twice per month, one on the 1st and one of the 15th. That way we get at least two envelopes per month that don't have bills in them!

My theme: Christmas in July! I know that lots of stores have sales, so we can help each other start to find ideas for Christmas cards.

Let's Start Swapping!

I made a site where we can both post what we want to swap for the month and we can show pictures and give praise. This should be fun!
