SU Regional Swap

Today I am headed to Tacoma, WA for Stampin' UP!'s regional convention.  I have no idea what to expect.   Scott and the boys will be staying home and taking care of our kitty who just had surgery, so I'm driving in the "city" alone. 


These are the swap cards I made.  You can see the sewing stuff I have pushed to the edge of the table so I could work on these.

On SCS they say that people swap at these things.  I've never been, so I have no idea what to expect.  They said to make 50-100 cards, but I didn't have the time to come up with that many.  I made 25.  I figure if people do want to swap with me I will have something to share, and if they don't I can use them as my October thank you cards for ordering with me. 
The first set of cards is from a Mojo Monday sketch I made recently.  You can check it out HERE if you want to see the supply list and sketch.



The second set of cards is one of my favorites.  You can check out the original posts HERE that have videos and variations on how I made this card.  Be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the page, because there are 3 posts featuring this basic design.

For the swap I decided to pull out 4 InColors and make four different, yet similar, sets.  Calypso Coral, shown below, Primrose Petals, Wisteria Wonder and Summer Starfruit, were the four I chose. If I had more time I might have bought a pack of Wisteria Wonder CS and made them all in that color, but I'm actually glad I didn't.  They are so pretty in all the colors.  (even Summer Starfruit)



Creative Blessings,
Heather North

Oh what adorable swaps! I (A) Wish I could go and (B) wish I could be there to swap with YOU! Enjoy it - I'll be hoping for a FULL report. See you at convention in July?

If I had any left I would send them to you. I didn't make very many though. Perhaps we should do ACAD swap. ;)
