Swap Cards

I've been pretty busy since my last post, working on cards for various swaps at SCS.


This first pic is my card for the "Cards With Charm" swap, http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=332932


I tore a page out of a novel and "aged" it by brayering it with brown ink. The stamp set is Merci; the cardstock is Always Artichoke, and the ink is stazon black and rose red (watercolored). I outlined the image with a Sakura clear glitter gelly pen.



This next card is what I made for the No Words swap, http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=335749


This was a quick and easy card in which I used the leftover kits from the last SCS Central Florida get together. I added a couple more layers of cardstock and brads, and I used the glitter gel pen again on the dark blue flowers.




This is what I designed for the Flap Fold card swap, http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=335860


This one was a bit of a challenge for me as I'd never made a flap fold card before. But once I got the hang of the scored lines placement, this card came together like a dream! I used Purely Pomegranite and Rose Red cardstock; the striped paper is something I picked up at either Michaels or AC Moore. The stamp set if Doodle This; the inks used were stazon black, whisper white (craft), Purely Pomegranite, and Ballet Blue.
