Four of the Belli Girls were at the swap....Joy Hadden, Debbie Daniels, Me, and my DD Holly Brown.
Stamping royalty here: Lydia Fiedler, Susan Liles, Jen de Muro, and Bev Gerard
My table mates included Joy, Holly, and Joy's sister, Debbie.
This is the card I designed for the swap...we had to create something that could be put together in 10 minutes or less...now, that was tricky!!! In my infinite wisdom, I thought that I would have more diecuts than stamping to save time...little did I realize how much time would be spent turning the crank on the old cuttlebug...yikes!!! My arm will never be the same...LOL!!! I made 40 packets with all the pieces to this card...that's a lotta diecuts!!!
This was my favorite card...I don't know who designed it but they did a fabulous job!!!
This is a Farkle card...I have never played Farkle but it sure sounds fun!! The card in the slot pulls out so you can get to the dice....tooo cute!!!
I added pictures of the cards we made...all of them were just gorgeous!!! I left some of the sentiments off so I could add one when needed. Looks like I have birthday cards for a few months!!!
Thanks for stopping by today.....have a good one!!!! Now to gather the troups for a quick lunch and off we go!!!
