I feel so darn tootin special! Yesterday was my first day that I opened up all of the card swaps and wow – I am kind of mad at myself as there are SOOOOOO MANY AMAZING cards…as I should have CASED away before I sent them out!
Are you ready……this is so exciting and please do not worry if you do not see your card here today as I will have another post tomorrow! This is just the start – I did not have as many as the last swap but it is a very bust time of the year for all of us.
Please make sure that you "take in" all the layouts, they can easily be adapted to be used all year long…let's get going!
Jessica's coloring is fabulous and I love how she popped up the penguin. I forget about tilting the card stock – it looks fabulous!
Cindy used the most AMAZING clear protective cover for the mailing of this card…..if you can share with us where you purchased them…they are great for keeping cards clean! This is a STUNNING card!
Loved the simplicity of this! I used to never use Bakers Twine but now I am hooked – it is a super effective way to add bling….and oh so easy! This card makes me smile!
These colors together are stunning! Someone is really going to be doing the Happy Dance with this beauty!
This picture does not give this card the "justice" it deserves….I adore the scalloped edge and the glitter is wow! The details are great!
The colors are stunning and the heat embossing makes it super special….love this tree and I could just grab these pears and take a bite!
Adorable! The "pulled" cotton is incredible. These Trees have been the hit this year and the colors are bold, fun and bright!
I have a confession – I was going to share with you 10 today but I was on an AMAZING Pals call with Mary Fish and the PALS all talking about the NEW catalog and Sale-a-bration and my eyelids got very, very heavy editing your cards after taking pictures…..
But the GREAT NEWS IS…..you will have MORE tomorrow!!!! Aren't these wonderful… I am smiling from ear to ear and as proud as a new Mom with your talent! This below sentiment sums it up!
Thank you, thank you for your talent and your inspiration! Get ready for more tomorrow…












Wowzer! All of these are STUNNING and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the time and effort you give to sharing these with us. Thanks so much and I cannot WAIT until I see more tomorrow! Have a super weekend and thank you for ALL that you do, sweet girl!
I was reading the post on my kindle(small screen). So when I scrolled down and the first card was mine… well I cannot tell you how fabulous it felt! Is this what it feels like to be published… sort of?
I had even forgotten about the swap! LOL Everyone’s cards are just gorgeous! I’m proud to be a part of this group!
Thanks Susan for hosting the swap.
Christmas hugs to y’all
Jessica

Wow! These cards are absolutely beautiful! It is so exciting to swap a card with someone from a different part of the country knowing that you share the same passion! Excitement is in the air! Thanks, Susan!

So beautiful
Amazing how our brains all come up with different creative ideas. Happy holidays
Awesome card swaps! Thanks so much for sharing them with us!
Merry Christmas!
Great cards this time. The creativity is amazing. The partridge in a pair tree makes me smile–a very clever adaptation! Your comments about each one are very helpful. Thanks for taking the time to do that. Thanks too for arranging another exchange, I do enjoy them so!
These are wonderful! All are so special making my playing with the Paper Pumpkin sort of fiasco! I can’t wait to see more and to see which one I will get to cherish for my own! Each one made me smile from the coloring on the one to the small little Susan dots on the believe one and the darling partridge and the skates and the colors of the merry one and the darling trees with the house. Everyone did a great job!
