Christi's Creative Crew: Swap cards from Sue V & Sue N

The bulk of our retreat was spent with our Shoebox Swaps.

If you have never heard of a shoebox swap - it basically is when each person prepares a card and makes up a "kit" to make their card. Then everyone rotates from station to station creating each others cards.

There were 12 of us attending the Saturday retreat, which means we each went home with a variety of 11 cards

We were all quite amazed that no-one duplicated the same stamp set and only two stampers used the same designer paper.

Today we will feature cards from Sue V and Sue N

Sue N used the ADVENTUROUS SKY stamp set and Basic Beige card stock

A new and fun twist was that she used a score plate to add some score lines to the card front.

I know exactly who I hope to send this to.

Sue V used the REGAL WINTER Designer Paper. We actually had a choice of colors and I chose to make the Night of Navy version.
