Stampin’ Up! Convention 2014 Swaps

Today im sharing with you the swaps i made.. Heres is them all packed ready to go, I made 100 card fronts and 50 3d swaps with a chocolate inside..

The little gift below is made using the envelope punch board, and the trim the tree paper stack with crumb cake thick bakers twine

To make the little pouches cut the paper to 11.5cm x 11.5cm then on the envelope punch board score at 6.5cm and punch, turn and line up to scoreline and repeat on all 3 sides – and voila super easy but really effective, I will be posting a video on these too

My card swap featured the Festival of trees stamp… and a machine sewn border – have you tries machining on your cards yet??? no!! do it its so effective and doesnt damage your machine..

In return i have this box full of amazing swaps to go through…

I made my swaps in several different colours – Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler, with my sentiment stamped in Soft Suede, and the stars where stamped in Sahara Sand
