Team Swaps – Seasonal Catalogue

By | February 18, 2013

Hi there

On Saturday our team had it’s regular training session.  These are always so much fun – lots of catching up, laughing, eating and business help 🙂  Most sessions we do swaps and this time our swaps used products from the new Seasonal Catalogue.  Swaps are a great way of getting different ideas for using the new products.  There were 18 of us swapping so now I have 18 new ideas using products from the Seasonal Catalogue.  Here is the card I made.

This time I decided to go with a 3″ x 3″ card with a twist.  I had seen this style over on Mary Fish’s blog and thought it would be cool to recreate using the Sunshine and Sprinkles DSP.  It is kind of like a gate fold with the top piece fitting under the embellishment to keep shut.  Here is a photo of it opened which also shows off the cute whale paper.
The front picture is cut from another sheet of paper in the same pack using the 1 3/8″ circle punch.  I did two colour combinations using Pacific Point ink with the whale holding either a yellow or green umbrella or Melon Mambo ink with the whale holding pink umbrellas.
Supplies:
Stamp – Ciao Baby
Card Stock – Whisper White
Ink – Pacific Point (or Melon Mambo)
DSP – Sunshine and Sprinkles
Other – 1 1/4″ and 1 3/8″ Circle Punch, 7/8″ Scallop Circle Punch, Cloudy Day Embossing Folder, Dimesionals

    Another wonderful card for a swap. It looks great with the whale DSP and the style of card you created. There are many great things in the new catologue.

    Hopefully I will get to take part in the next swap.
