August Swaps!

I hope you enjoyed Monday's post with all the swaps from July. Today I have my swaps from August! I'm hoping that I'll have my swaps from this month in early October and will get them posted as soon as I can.

So the theme for August was vellum. To use it however you wanted, as much or little as you wanted. You'll be able to find all the products used on these cards in my STORE and I'll put another link at the end.

Carol Barbati
Stamps: Bright Wishes
Ink: Lemon Lime Twist, Many Marvelous Markers, several
Card Stock: Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White thick, Basic Black, Vellum
Accessories: Sponge, Aqua Painter, Scoring Tool, 1 3/8" Scallop Circle & Leaf punches

I'm not sure how Carol did her coloring of this well, but if it was me, I'd scribble some of the marker on an acrylic block, my stamp case or some else that won't absorb the ink and pick up the ink with the aqua painter. The photo doesn't show the detail really well on this card, but the leaves show lines in them. She did that with her scoring tool. You could use your bone folder, but a stylus would be preferable.

Debbie Modrowsky

Stamps: Stitched All Around

Ink: Blushing Bride, Black Memento

Card Stock: Whisper White, Vellum, Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper

Accessories: Stitched Labels & Tropical Thinlits, Rose Metallic Thread, Big Shot

Another hard to see but Debbie used one of the dies from the Stitched Labels to create some texture on the Whisper White card stock. Another that you really need to see in person!

The Swaps Are In!!!

My monthly swap group is a little behind, but we're all caught up now! They did come in while I was away and I'm just having time to post these! I have swaps going back to July to share with you! I do want to warn you this post is a little long!

So July's Theme was Monochromatic, white on white. Since so many did that in June, Mena the host, said just Monochromatic of any color if they wanted. Most did stick with the white on white, which by the way, isn't that easy to photograph so I'm apologizing now for the pictures. You'll be able to find all the products used on these cards in my STORE and I'll put another link at the end.

Carol Barbati
Card Stock: Whisper White regular and thick
Accessories: Lovely Floral & Basket Weave Embossing Folder, Multi Purpose Adhesive Sheets, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, dimensionals, foam adhesive strips
Just in case you're wondering, that glittery strip was made with the Multi Purpose Adhesive sheet and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter! Love how it sparkles!

Cyndy Ponczek
Stamps: Varied Vases
Ink: Sahara Sand
Card Stock: Very Vanilla
Accessories: Stitched Shapes Framelits, Subtle Dynamic E.F., Vases Builder Punch, Stampin' Sponges, Pearls, Very Vanilla 1/2" Lace Trim, dimensionals, Big Shot, Stamparatus
I die cut the oval and then using the new Stamparatus, I stamped the flower and thanks. Made it so much easier!

Ink:Gray Granite, VersaMark
Card Stock: Whisper White regular and thick
Accessories: Garden Scene Framelits, White Embossing Powder, Embossing Buddy, Heat Tool, Gray Granite Textured 1/2" Weave Ribbon, dimensionals, Big Shot
I don't think you can see it in the photo, but she stamped images in the upper right and lower left corners and embossed them with the white embossing powder. The card is really stunning in person!

Laura Davis
Stamps: Healing Hugs, Perennial Birthday
Ink: Tranquil Tide, Black Memento
Card Stock: Tranquil Tide, Whisper White
