Fall Fest Swaps — Part 2

Last night I arrived in Milwaukee for one of Stampin' Up!'s very first On Stage Local events.  We had a wonderful catered dinner and received a stamp set from the Occasions Catalog which won't begin until January.
We also received a special gift for attending the evening — which was called Centre Stage.  It was a great time — we saw some demo friends and had a wonderful training session on Leadership.
Hope to have a few pictures for you tomorrow — I have 7 team members attending too.

For now, here are a few more swaps from Fall Fest.

Gail Swap Card
Gail Diss's swap came in 2nd place — this card had a great fold.

Rorie Swap Card
Rorie Lindell used the Decorative Dots embossing folder to give this card a little texture.

Marianne Swap Card
Marianne Hatch did a great job — butterflies are always a favorite.

Fall Fest Swaps – Part 1

I just realized that I never shared the Fall Fest Swap Cards.
I think everyone did a great job and I was so pleased that most did participate.

Kelly Swap CardThis was Kelly Mason's card.
I love all the details and texture.
Jenny Swap Card
This was my daughter-in-law, Jenny's card (she had a little assistance from my daughter, Katie in designing this one). 
This card fits right into my theme for November — let's be thankful or grateful for everyone in our lives.  Send them a card to say I appreciate you.
Wendy Swap Card
Wendy Tikk's card also fits that fall thankful theme.
She added one of the Spider Web Doilies for a little added fun.
Jose Swap Card
Even Jose Proa participated in the swap — our only male stamper.
I think he did a great job adding lots of detail and plenty of color.
Way to go Jose.

Come back tomorrow — I'll share some more of the swap cards.

Santa’s Gift

Santa’s Gift is a Christmas stamp set in the Annual Catalog.
It is just so cute — I love this reindeer.
I made a new friend at Founder’s Circle back in September, Julie Brancart.
I saw this card on Julie’s facebook and just loved everything about it.
I made a few, Peggy adjustments to it — not many because it was already fabulous.

RudolphThe card base is Thick Whisper White with a layer of Old Olive, then a layer of Whisper White that was embossed with the Softly Falling embossing folder.
A strip of Season of Cheer designer paper was attached to a strip of Old Olive card stock.  I used the Lots of Labels Framelits (this is a must have) to cut out the Real Red label.  Punch out a 2 1/2″ Whisper White circle and the “Rudolph” with Memento ink.
I used markers to color him — Real Red, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede.
This is attached to the Real Red label with dimensionals.

The best part of this card is the fold.
Rudolph Open
It’s an easel card — isn’t it adorable.
“Oh, what fun” is from the Oh, What Fun stamp set — so cute…….
