Spring Card Exchange 2012 {part 2}

Alright, here it is...part 2 of my Spring Card Exchange! Are you ready to see the fabulous creations from my talented customers? Be amazed~

First up is a beautiful card by Janet that had so much dimension that she needed to make a box for it!

 Here is the card that was in the box, look at that gorgeous tissue flower~

This is Nanette's sweet Spring card. I love the butterflies and pearls!

This fun little bird house card is from Pat. She curled the pink flowers around a pencil eraser to give them dimension.

Aysa created this bright and colorful chick card, tweet...tweet!

Peggy mingled the Stella and Lucy papers together and gave her card a ton of dimension. Her easel card is stunning and gorgeous!

The butterfly folded up to reveal the sentiment~

Tommy had fun using her Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge to cut all her postage shapes and butterflies. This card is a perfect example of how you can utilize your scraps and create a beautiful card!

As an added bonus~ I just had to share this extra card that Nanette made for me. Like many of my customers she is also a good friend and has only been creating with me for about a year. She is a fast learner and has lots of talent to share, wouldn't you say! Thank you for the lovely card Nanette!

I hope you were able to find some inspiration here today. Be sure to leave a comment and let these ladies know what a great job they did!

Happy Spring!

Spring Card Exchange 2012 {part 1}

Happy Monday to you all! This past weekend I held a scrapbooking workshop and my Spring Card Exchange. My customers always create amazing cards and there is always such variety. The cards could be anything with a Spring theme like flowers, birds, butterfly's, bunnies and chicks!

I will post all of their creations soon, but first I'd like to share what I came up with. I am also playing along with the challenge at Heart 2 Heart this week. This bicycle stamp looks awesome embossed in black!

Here they all are wrapped up. Why keep them sealed in a plastic sleeve? Because, each card was scented with a Pina Colada scent. That's what I love about Spring...warmer weather, riding my bike and relaxing with a refreshing cocktail!

Come back soon to see the fabulous creations from my talented customers! Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Card Exchange 2011

Show me your blooms!

I held my Spring card exchange this past Saturday. Our theme was to create cards with spring time blooms, flowers or flourishes. It could have any sentiment attached to it and needed to use mostly Close To My Heart product, especially stamps. Here are the results and I'm sure you can agree they are gorgeous!
