So today is the day that we receive the swaps from the other demos on the ship. We were to make 26 swaps, 25 for our fellow demos and one for Stampin Up. We hand them all in and then we receive 25 randomly selected swaps back. I cannot wait to see what beautiful things I get back and of course I will be sharing photos with you on my return. This is my swap – A bit vintage and in using my favourite colour Pool Party! I based the idea on a swap I received at one of our team meetings by Lucy Tustian. It has a super cool fold to make it open with depth on the inside but when its closed lay flat!! Here is what I mean….
So you can see what I mean about having depth which meant I could cut out an aperture with the labels collection framelits and add a stamped image from Apothecary Art on the inside so that when it is opened and lines up perfectly you can see the sentiment and stamping within the aperture….
I was happy with the results but let me tell you it took AGES to complete, I enlisted the help of my stamping helper Cas (Who also happens to be my sister). I cant wait to tell you all about my trip and share the hundreds of photos. So hang on in there and I will be back soon….
Have a great rest of the week!
