I recently joined a card swap!

I was browsing Stampin' Connection - the demonstrator only blog for Stampin' Up - and I was finding these discussions displaying beautiful cards. I racked my brain trying to figure out how they made these cards and I stumbled upon a 'Specific Stamp set swap'. It is a group of demonstrators who make 8 identical cards with specific stamp sets and send them to the organizer. She sends 1 each to every demonstrator who participates in the swap. Its a great way to get ideas from one another and share techniques for how we made that 'Wow' card! I bit the bullet and signed up for 'Betsy's Blossoms' swap.

 I recently bought this stamp set at a card class hosted by my upline, June. She demonstrated a beautiful card:

I'm going to try and add my own creative spin to the card! Wish me luck :)
