European Convention - my swaps!

Usually my style is CAS (clean and simple), however, I decided to go for a completely different style for my convention swaps! I thought I would be adventurous and it seems to have paid off judging by the comments from some of the other demonstrators I swapped with!


For these cards you will need:

Stamps: Gorgeous Grunge W-130514, C-130517, Off the Grid W-130736, Blooming with Kindness W-131961, C-126422, Happy Day W-130294, C-130297, Dictionary Background W-130348, C-130351
A4 Card Stock: Basic Black 121688, Real Red 106578, Crumb Cake 121685
Ink Pads: Whisper White (Craft) 101731, Basic Black 126980, Versamark 102283
Other: White embossing powder 109132, Bitty Butterfly Punch129406, Bubble wrap

Convention was fantastic! I will be posting more pictures as soon as I get the chance so pop back later this week for another look.

    1. Hi Shelley, I stamped the bubble wrap first in basic black ink (top right), then made a mask from the Elegant Butterfly punch and stamped over with the dictionary background stamp, I then stamped off the grid bottom left, gorgeous grunge stripes down the right side and stamped the Happy Days images bottom right and the Happy day flower top left and right centre. All in basic black ink. Then I over-stamped the happy day flower in Craft Whisper White ink and the other image from Happy day also in Craft Whisper White. I then stamped and heat embossed in white the flower from Bloomin with Kindness bottom left. I sponged Craft Whisper White ink round the edges, and finally punched the butterflies and sponged the edges in basic black. I then layered the card base onto the black card mat. Hope this helps :-)
