Amy N's Sweetly Scripted Anniversary

Do you send Anniversary cards? I do. But some of my customers have told me that they don't. I see them as another reason to send happy mail! Amy N must agree with me. This is her card for our August Stamp Share swap:

Colors: Basic White, Petunia Pop, Shy Shamrock

Christmas Friends Peaceful Season Beary Merry Stamp Share For Leaders Swap

It seems too early to be making Christmas cards, but I really had fun making these for the Stamp Share For Leaders September-December Mini Catalog swap! Lots of little details!


Here's the inside:


Colors: Basic Black, Basic White, Real Red, Shaded Spruce

I tried a few other versions:


Same colors, but colored the bear. Cute, but too much work and not enough time for swaps!


This is the In Color Shy Shamrock. Still cute, but when I asked John and Chase, they both preferred the darker green.


Crumb Cake. Cute, but was it Christmasy enough? John said go with green.

Splendid Autumn Expressions Stamp Share For Leaders Swaps

The Stamp Share For Leaders group did a swap for the new September-December Mini Catalog last week. John bought a piece of equipment that was kind of in the area, so we picked it up and then went to the actual swap. It was fun seeing everyone and getting my cards right away! 

I signed up for two groups, so I designed two cards and made 22 of each. 20 for the swap, one for the plus one, and one for me. For my first card, I actually made 24, because I used the new Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper. It has 12 designs so I made two of each!







Aren't they pretty? This is modified gate fold. The left side is 3 1/4" and the right flap is 1". The die cut with the words stamped on it is tucked behind the leaf to keep the card closed.


Here they are all together


Here's what they look like open. Each card uses an entire 6x6" piece of Designer Series Paper, minus a 3/4" square. I cut 3/4" off of either the top or bottom of each sheet depending on the image, then cut the 5 1/4 x 6" piece in half to make two 3 x 5 1/4" pieces, keeping track of left (for the front) and right (for the inside). The 3/4 x 6" piece I cut to 5 1/4" and turned over before attaching it to the 1" right flap.

Colors: Basic White, Balmy Blue, Blackberry Bliss, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Gorgeous Grape, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Wild Wheat

I did use a few other dots/gems to coordinate with the colors I used for each design.
