Now when Demo’s get together we swap cards – I love swapping and getting samples of the wonderful cards people create – it’s so inspiring. At our last meeting our theme was Christmas, you have no idea how hard it was to get festive in a heat wave! Anyway, now the sun seems to be on its holidays I thought I would share my swap card with you.
I decided I wanted to do something fun with a bit of a zing, so I used a combination of Melon Mambo, Certainly Celery and Old Olive. The stamps are from Holly Jolly Christmas, (how fab is this Santa?) and Winter Post. Santa also has a bit of sparkle – Dazzling diamonds added with the help of a glue pen.
If I show you this angle you start to get a hint of a little surprise this card has ... can you guess what it is?
Want me to show you?
OK here goes!
Yes – you untie the bow
and reveal a gift card holder!
I don’t know if its the same for you, but we know a number of people (especially teenagers) who just want money or vouchers for Christmas so I will be making quite a few more of these before the big day!
Happy Stampin’
Bekka
