My Llama Swap Card

As promised, I have finally gotten pictures taken of the Llama Swap Cards.  This is the second swap we have done and each one is better than the last.  It's fun to see what others create.  This is the one I did for the swap.

Stamp Sets:  Paisley Petals, Easy Events; Inks:  Cherry Cobbler, Perfect Plum Stampin' Write Marker, Melon Mambo Stampin' Write Marker, Marina Mist Stampin' Write Marker, Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write Marker, StazOn Jet Black; Card Stock:  River Rock, Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White; Accessories:  Whisper White Organza Ribbon, Jewels Basic Rhinestones, Stampin' Dimensionals, Decorative Label Punch

It was an experiment in color.  I used colors I had not previously thought of putting together.  I really like the way it looks.

Over the next few days, I'll be showcasing the other cards I received.  Just click the following link, Here A Llama, There A Llama, and you'll be able to find them on my very special Llama blog.  One of the upcoming events is our very first Do The Llama Blog Hop.  I'll keep you posted.

Don't forget to check the schedule for events happening at the Coffee Pot Stamping Cafe.  Just click on the Cafe Events 2011 tab for a complete list.

Cajun Craze Birthday

This is one of those cards that, once started, just took on a life of its own.  I had no idea where I was going or what I wanted to do once I committed ink to paper.  In the end, I really liked how this turned out.  It's another of the cards designed for the Come & Go Card Buffet.

Stamp Sets: Paisley Petals, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Ink:  Cajun Craze; Card Stock:  Cajun Craze, Whisper White, Not Quite Navy; Accessories:  Curly Label Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, Dazzling Details (from the Holiday Mini), sponge dauber

Well, it's late and I have a fantastically busy day lined up for tomorrow.  The best part of tomorrow, is I get my car fixed.  The poor little thing has been sick for a while and he is now over at Dr. Mike's waiting for a new compressor transplant.  I am so thankful that my son has the ability to fix my car.  It's such a blessing to have three mighty fine sons, each with their own talents and abilities.
