Flower Purse

Purse is done by Candace Kieper she was also in the Shaped Card Swap. Isn't this cute, I love the strap and the flower. I think this is really cute and plan to make one soon.
Sorry it has been a while since the last one. I have been very busy with my parents. My Mom fell on Sat. morning and she went face first, black and blued her eye, elbow, shoulder and knees and wrist all on the left side and broke her wrist. Dad is unable to get her up so he called me. Since I have been over several hours a day and taking her to appointments. Then on Tuesday evening she sat down in one of those outdoor plastic lawn chairs and it went over backwards and she hit her head on the sidewalk and has a huge goose egg on the back of her head. They are not putting a cast on her arm as her skin is so thin and she is a diabetic and it just isn't good, so right now she is in a brace. I also went over on Thursday and cleaned the house. My youngest son, me and my niece and between us we got he house all done. Now the yard needs it. So hence the reason I have been missing in action this time.
Hope everything is going better on your ends of the world.

Swap Dress

This beautiful dress is done by Loydean Woods, and such a wonderful job, she added a pocket and a bow. I love how this turned out and am so happy I got this one. She has scalloped the edges of the bottom of the dress and on the sleeves. The pocket has two eyelets to hold it on.

Tomorrow I will share another card. Not many of these left to share and then I will share my other swap and get back to my cards. But, I really wanted to share these with you and show you that you can join some really good swaps.

Swap Card Bra & Panties

This one was made by Kimberly Johnson. Now I have made this one before they are so fun to do and the men love them. LOL I made one for a friend and he loved it, it was a Birthday Card. I did a faux tattoo on the rear cheek. You can do that using your printer and over head projector sheet. I have directions for that on my blog too.

Here is the front of the card.

And here is the back of the card. I love this one cause you have something on the back and front.

I will have another one to show tomorrow. I got 10 shaped cards all together so will show them to you all, one day at a time. Then I have another swap to share and will show that one also.

Two more Shaped Cards

The popsicle card is done by Kadie Labadie, I have yet to make one of these also. Aren't they cute. And are so easy to make they would be a quick card for a stamp camp. The ribbon goes up to the card and holds it closed.

And then we have the cup cake card this one was made by Kathy Logan. I just love this one so sparkly with the glittery icing. And love the cherries on top. I have wanted to get the pattern for this one for awhile as I couldn't get it to print to the correct size when I found it on the net. This is such a cute card. She really did a great job on this with the crimped cup cake bottom.

Hope your enjoying my swap shares.

Shaped Swap Card

This one is from Diane Smith, looks like she used a die cut for this card. Love it her detail and shading on this is just perfect. On the middle of the card she did a technique called faux wood. Beautiful job on this and one technique I have never tried yet. She also added brads between the flowers and on the bottom of both sides of the friend. This card also opens up. Such a neat idea. And love the added touch of the ribbon on top.


This card is done by Elizabeth Kratzer, she used a scallop to make her card. This card is so cute and small enough to fit in a 3x3 envelope to give as a gift card. Cute idea. Lots of layers on this one. She used a couple different punches and a eyelet in the center of the flower and also added a cut little ribbon to top it off. Super cute idea.
I so enjoyed this swap and was so excited to get it back. I love shaped cards anyway, they are different from the norm.

Shaped Swap Cards Received

These cards are from the Shaped Card Swap I was in. I got some fantastic cards in this swap, everyone did an awesome job. I will share 2 in this one.

This is one that Dar Yarowski"s. Isn't this just the cutest windmill you have ever seen. She has so much detail into it. The blades on the windmill go around too. Such a neat card. She has the blocks on the building cut out and glued on.

This next one is by DeDe Janzen. This one is so cute, the wings open with a message inside. Love how this turned out. She has glued on little wiggly eyes that move. And the wings are attached with black brads.
