U Rock!


Yes you! You rock just for stopping by! So here is the card I designed for our Great Swaps Convention swap.

I intended to use my new Fresh Cuts set from the new catalog, but decided at the last minute (and that's exactly what it was) to use this It's a Sign set. I wanted to show it some love and use a unique set that isn't overly used.

The Real Red pieces are all crimped with the crimper. The Creamy Caramel piece was stamped over and over with the "Way to Go" stamp in caramel for the background. The ribbon is the Real Red striped that is in the new catalog, as well as both star punches that you see here. The center star in Eggplant is raised on a pop dot so it adds more dimension.

I hope you like it. It's not nearly in the same class as the stunning swaps I received so I hope no one is disappointed. I tried to do something a bit different for me and keep it unique.

Great to "see" you- stop by again! I'll try to be much more regular wtih posts now that I'm home!

  4. You and your card both rock, Kristin! I love the color combination and the crimped pieces. I don't have this stamp set, so it's great to have this awesome card to show my friends!
