I took about 55 card front swaps with me to Hamilton last weekend and came home with wonderful inspiration from other demos! Most of my swapping was done in the line up outside the hall waiting for the doors to open, its a great way to pass the time!

I love attending Stampin' Up! events - there is so much energy and creativity! And I always come back with a ton of ideas. Saturday my mom, my downline Lisa and I spent the day with over 350 other demonstrators and a few Stampin' Up! employees. There were also some give aways too! Stampin' Up! is such a wonderful company!


This was one of the make and takes we did on Saturday. Four note cards and envelopes come packaged together and we made a pretty vellum cover for them all to fit into! Over the next little while I will be sharing more pictures from Hamilton and my swap cards!

Supplies
Stamps: Clockworks, One in a Million
Ink: Baja Breeze, Basic Grey, Calypso Coral, More Mustard
Paper: Note Cards and Envelopes, Vellum
Accessories: Calypso Coral Baker's Twine, 1" Circle Punch

By the Seashore

I gave this card to my husband for his birthday. He liked the ripped paper and he said they looked like the rippled sand that we saw on our trip to PEI in June. To create the sand I started with Crumb Cake card stock and ripped a 2.5" wide piece in half, then layered the pieces onto the card front. To make the sand realistic I used the Colour Spritzer tool and a Crumb Cake Stampin' Write Marker. The Pool Party piece is the negative of the Large Scallop Edgelit, distressed with Pool Party Ink Pad and Whisper White Craft ink to highlight the 'waves'.

Supplies
Stamps: By the Seashore
Ink: Versamark, Whisper White, Pool Party
Paper: Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand, Pool Party
Accessories: Black Embossing Powder, Stampin' Dimensionals, Colour Spritzer, Large Scallop Edgelits
