Swaps made from the Summer Mini Catalogue
Yes! Another benefit of being a demonstrator!! On one of the ‘groups’ I belong to, we organised a swap. This means you made a particular number of ‘card fronts’ with a particular stamp set, then post them off at a given time, with a stamped addressed envelope. The person it is sent to, then divides all the swaps up so you get one of each sent back! It’s a great way to get samples of stamp sets you don’t have, and to get some inspiration for different techniques and colours. Hope you like mine.
It’s hard to see in the pics, but I’ve used the set “Razzle Dazzle” and used the circle scissors to cut a number of circles and rings. The black ring over the stamped (versamark, then black, then stamp and clear embossed) image, provides a ‘border’ for the crystal effects I applied. It gives it this ‘brooch’ like quality. The trick is to leave it dry for 24 hours before touching it!! I finished each off with 3 clear rhinestones.
