Consultants Creative Swap Meet

So I have joined a group of local Close To My Heart consultants and we get together every few months to create cards... we each design a card using a a new background & texture paper of our choice.
I got Victory!  Here are the cards I designed for February swap meet & this month.

The rest of the group designed  these for us to put together...

this one is by Kim ~ I changed the orientaion of the one square...

This one was designed by Suna ~ I changed this one completely... I was tired by this time & spaced the lettering all wrong... no room for Paradise ~ this one makes me laugh!

This is the one Suna designed ( it is for Tracey as she was unable to attend)

 I  should have followed the pattern & not been a rebel!

Here is the one I created from Deb's  designed using the NEW 'Dotty for you' paper pack.

It is a special line that we have for International scrapbooking Month!

Watch for more information on that to follow!

Thanks to Deb for hosting this swap ~ we had a great time ~ laughing, creating & Sharing!

For Now

Stamp of the Month for January 2012

And my personal favorite is this multi use stamp set for dates~ Card making, party invitations ~ Scrapbook pages ~ I see so many uses for this set that no one should be without it ~ and it can be yours for  a discounted price with a qualifying purchase ~ oh, you just want the stamp... no Problem, you can buy it outright... but don't delay as once this month is over ~ the set is gone!
