One of the benefits of swapping with other crafters is that you receive back the same number of cards that you made but they are from all different stamp sets (possibly sets you do not own – which is the case for a few of these samples) and you get new ideas, Sometimes it is a new color combination or a new fun fold or a new technique. mostly it is just plain fun to see other people’s style and how they use their stamps and products!

This first card is from Denise W. who is one of my upline’s and hosts this swap every month! This is the adorable Wooly Friends Bundle and uses the Love Notes Mix and Match Designer Series paper and the Three Banner punch to punch out the DSP. Such a sweet card!

This next card is from Kathi D. and is made using the Easter Joy Suite of products including the Easter Basket Bundle and the Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series paper.

Nancy F’s swap card uses a set that I do not have but thought was so so pretty and she does an awesome job with the Aspen Grove stamp set. She uses the Faux Bronze Pentagons from the Nature walk Suite Collection of products and the sentiment from the Loveliest Trees stamp set!

This is a window card. The second picture shows the card from the inside view.

This Greenery Lane bundle card from Carol S. uses the Stone and Vine 3D embossing folder as the backdrop for this lovely neutral card. She used the dies and stamps from the Greenery Lane bundle as well as the washi tape for the strip on the left hand side of the card.
