Holiday Mini Swap


Can you see a theme for my posts? They have all been for swaps. Hence the reason I am part of a group on SCS called Swappers Anonymous. We are all Swap-a-holics! I've slowed down on the swaps for the past while, but did want to post the cards that I have made.

I think this card looks so much better in real life. I didn't use a flash, but it still washed out the warmth of the watercoloring. I needed a ribbon to match, but didn't have any chocolate chip taffeta, which was my first choice, so I colored the white taffeta ribbon with my creamy caramel marker. There is also paper piercing around the watercolor paper, which adds some nice depth to the card, but it didn't show up very well in the picture.

if it looks better in real life - it must be gorgous (sp?) because it is beautiful!
