fun fold swap cards

fun fold swap cards

This month our swap group did fun folds! Always a treat to get fun folds in the mail. Some of these are bulky and will cost extra postage so if you are mailing make sure that you take these to the post office or put an extra 39 cents on the envelope to be safe!

This first swap card features the Sweetest Christmas Suite of products (#159579) – with the suite collection you get it all with one order number and one discounted price 2 Stamp bundles – Sweet Candy Cane Bundle (#161052) and the Christmas Banners Bundle (#159993) plus Real Red and Garden Green ribbon (#159577), Seasonal Sequins embellishments (#159964), Real Red and White Glimmer Paper (#159578) and the Sweetest Christmas DSP (#159559) This card has a gift card holder tucked away inside the card!

august swap cards

So last week was a blur – big events in our household and lots of activity! Therefore I was a stampin’ slacker and only got to post once – for that I apologize but although life remains busy and exciting I am now back to a relatively quieter house after 19 staying at the new lake house all weekend and 25 for dinner on Saturday! I loved every minute but I did miss posting and stamping for all of you!

Now that Fall is here I would like to schedule a time during the week to have stamp time with all my customers near and far and that will be set up soon so watch for the announcements and let me know if there are days of the week you would prefer!

August’s swap last month have been trickling in and sitting on my desk to post – all are from the current mini July to December 2022 catalog and I am excited to share the ideas and cards with you today!
Our first card is a July swap card from Susan W. that I didn’t get to post with the others from that month it goes with the theme though as the card features the lovely Boughs of Holly Bundle and the gorgeous coordinating dies!

Susan’s August swap card is just as beautiful, and one of my favorites of the August bunch. The Splendid Day Suite (#159681) features all the goodies in this gorgeous collection! The Splendid Thoughts Bundle (#159677) saves you 10% off the retail of the Splendid Thoughts stamp set (#159668) and the Splendid Stems dies (#159676), the Splendid Day 12′ x 12′ Specialty DSP (#159666).
This next card is designed by Robin G. with the stamp set Forever Friends (#159902) I love the sentiment from this set! “Time for a card-again!”
Sunkissed stamp set (#159908) is such a fun summer set and this card features that sweet summer feeling! Ginger S’s card is designed with different colored cardstock with a monochromatic inked images.
This next card made by Marie W features the Bundle Ringed with Nature (#159889). Remember any bundle saves you 10% over the separate stamp set (#159883) and the Tree Rings Hybrid Embossing folder and dies (#159888).
CarrollAnn A used the Apple Harvest stamp set (#159944) in a cross flap fun fold design. This month there are exclusive dies – only available now until the end of this month or while supplies last and this is one of the stamp sets that has limited time dies! See the images on the next photo!
