More Talent...

There is one thing each of the cards from our swap had in common and that is they used the new "In Colours" and each card was uniquely different and equally beautiful.
The card above was made by Leslie using only designer series paper (DSP) ...no stamping! Nice Work Leslie. Leslie used the Level 3 Hostess set Lovely Flowers.Jodie takes credit for this pretty card which could be used for a Bridal Shower or Wedding Card. Jodie used the stamp set Fifth Avenue Floral #113734 page 98 and . Great colour combination Jodi.
This is a technique I have not done in awhile - crayon resist. Janey used glossy white cardstock to stamp her image on using stazon black ink and then filling areas of the images using white crayon. Next The ink is applied using a brayer or sponge, letting the ink set/dry and using a tissue or cotton ball rubbing ove the images to remove the ink where the crayon was applied. Nice work Janey.


I like the colours you chose Jenine and your stamped image is beautifully watercoloured using Bermuda Bay, Certainly Celery and Soft Suede. Very pretty card.


Belinda did a lot of embossing using the Texturz plates Stampin' Up!~ Backgrounds 1 #114512, Beautiful Butterflies die #114507 and I believe the Go Go Boots Sizzlets #113450 and Razzle Dazzle stamp set #116714 page 94.
Participating is swaps is a lot of fun and so rewarding in that you get a variety of cards illustrating ones style, demonstration of techniques and layouts not to mention inspiration for your own card making.
Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy your weekend.
