Before we look at cards, I want to share with you this adorable baby! Meet Abigail Webb, my great niece. I haven't seen her in a couple of months and wow, how she has changed in those few months! She is 4 months old and such a good baby. I had the family over for dinner Saturday night and we all took turns holding her. It's been a long time since I held a little one!
OK - now to more of my swaps that I will be mailing off this week.

| This is my swap for Artistic Expression (pg. 108-132 in catalog) The stamp set is on page 120, Birds & Branches. I love the die (Birds and More) with the circular opening and the leaves and flowers. I mixed together Frost White Shimmer Paint (pg 147) and a little Pear Pizzazz ink and painted the leaves. I used the same technique on the bird and the little flowers. The card is Soft Sea Foam. |
Obviously, this is my birthday swap card. I used the Playing With Patterns designer paper (6"x6"). I love the colors in this paper - Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, Night of Navy and Purple Posy.
There was not enough of one pattern to make all 15 cards so I varied the designer paper on each card. The layout is the same on each. I used the Happy Dies and stamped "birthday" with Well Said stamp set.
