I’ve already shared pictures of the swaps and gifts that I made for my team and friends so thought it was about time that I shared the swaps that I received.
I think you will agree that they are all fabulous.
This first box was made by Angie, and she got the inspiration for the colour palette and the design from the napkins that are in the box. The images stamped on the box all come from the Petal Palette stamp set and she used the co-ordinating Petals & More Thinlits Dies to cut out the birds. Both of these will be in the new annual catalogue but they will not be available as a bundle as they are now.
Annette made this gorgeous picture using the Beautiful Day stamp set and the Celebrate You Thinlit Dies. I’m so pleased that both of these will be carrying over into the 2018-19 Catalogue. The Celebrate You Thinlits had previous been a Level 2 Sale-A-Bration item.
Esther made this never ending card using the Bubble Over stamp set and the the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper. I’ve made a number of these cards but never quite as large. Esther has made a YouTube video on how to make this fun card, and you can check it out here.
Fiona used the Silver Gable boxes and the ever so cute Magical Day Bundle (Magical Day stamp set and Magical Mates Framelits Dies). I have this set and have yet to christen it. I guess I should soon, because it will be retiring on 31 May.
Linda made a rolled frame using a whole A4 sheet of Berry Burst cardstock. These are great fun to make and you can find an example and instructions on my Tutorials where it is shown as a smaller Friends & Flowers Box Frame. The instructions are identical except you start with a larger piece of cardstock for the above. Linda decorated the inside of the frame with some Petal Passion Designer Series Paper and also the Beautiful Bouquet Bundle (Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and Bouquet Bunch Framelits Dies).
Happy stamping.
