I cannot believe that we are in August already! At the end of this month my hubby will officially be retired. He has worked at our church for 19 years as their facility manager. It has been the BEST job for him, but we believe that the young man that will replace him will do an equally good job.
I thought that I would share with you all, the swap cards that I received on our Alaskan Cruise with the Great American Stamping Show girls, Shannon West, Brandi Barnard & Julie Salva.
Since there were 30+ stampers there, I thought that I would share 5 cards each day. Hopefully you will find some inspiration from these talented stampers.
I absolutely love this card from Aimee Bollinger-Smith, and I hope to copy it for an upcoming class
She used the Perennial Lavender Designer Paper and the Painted Lavender stamp set. I think the butterfly is from a retired set, but Stampin' Up! has so many butterfly stamps I can find something to change it up with.
I can't believe she did all of that die cutting for us.
You can't go wrong with these cute cows made by Kendra Holden.
She used the Country Woods Designer Series Paper, which is so cool! This print is my favorite from the pack.
This card from Kathryn Mangelsdorf is beautiful! She used Layers of Beauty Stamp Set and dies, plus the coordinating Decorative Masks. The Designer Paper is called Unbounded Beauty.
This card was made by Shannon West. She used the Perennial Postage dies and the CHOOSE HAPPY Stamp Set.
This card is so pretty! Made by Joanne Mulligan. She used SKETCHED BUTTERFLIES Bundle, UNBOUNDED LOVE Bundle and CHANTILLY LACE.
Joanne was one of my table-mates on the cruise. She liked to be called Jo-Jo.
