Twinchies Swap - May

I found a new swap on Craft Swap Forum - Twinchies Swap.

This is a set of 4 co-ordinating 2" x 2" squares, with the idea of the recipient being able to use them on a card - I guess much like toppers.

There was no set theme this month, and here is what I came up with..

I used the set "Flight of the Butterfly" from Stampin' Up! I love this set!

Card Swap

**More to be added**

This months' swap theme for the cards is Teddies

I don't have many crafty teddy bits, so this was a huge challenge for me this month! I have, however, thoroughly enjoyed it, and love the bits I have created!! I now always decorate the inside of the card too, so thought I'd include these, in a smaller picture.

Tag Swap

**More to be added!**

I joined another swap, to make 3 tags, and you get 3 in return.

The theme for this month, is Teddies!

The teddy here is made up of punches from Stampin' Up! *Instructions to follow*.

I sponged the edges of the teddy and the tag, and sponged the back too.

I punched a hole with my Crop-a-Dile, set a chocolate coloured 3/16" eyelet and tied a caramel organza ribbon through the hole.

I left it relatively blank, so it can be personalised by the recipient!

ATC Swap - Stamped Images

These are my second set of ATCs for another swap I have joined. The idea is to use Rubber Stamped images as the main focal point.

This months' theme: Ribbons and Bows.

I didn't have much in the way of stamps containing ribbons and bows, but I managed to find a couple, and buy a couple for the purpose of the swap!!

Stamped Image Swap

Here is my Stamped Image Swap for May. It is a wood-mounted rubber stamp called "New Baby" by Stampendous, and is a personal favourite of mine! This month there were 7 of us.

ATC Swap

I've never made Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) before, but here are my very first ATCs for a swap I've joined in on!

This months' theme: Black & White

20th Wedding Anniversary

It is my Auntie and Uncle's 20th year together on the 19th May. I made them this card, which took me ages, but I loved every second making it!!

And the inside.. (as I hate seeing handmade cards with nothing at all inside)
