Card Swaps - Shoebox Card Swap

I spent some time this afternoon taking pictures of cards I've received from swaps I've participated in. I'm not finished, there are more to take pictures of. This card was for a swap that is being hosted in Australia. Lauren participated in a swap I hosted so I wanted to do her swap. I made the crochet lace trim flower. It was so easy to do. I sewed a button in the middle to finish it off.
The next 7 cards are from a Shoebox Card Swap last year.

Karen stamped and embossed the roses in white on vellum. She then added some glitter. It is a wedding card and gorgeous IRL!



The spider web on this card was embossed in black.





A waterfall card.

The next 3 cards are from a Sympathy card swap.








Hat Pins Splitcoast Stampers Swap

I made these hat pins for a Splitcoast Stampers swap. I had 5 spots, 6 were made and I got 5 back...so I got a total of 25 pins back. I just realized that I haven't taken pictures of the ones I got back. I'll have to do that. I went to Michael's and Joann's to get the beads. The pins I used are corsage pins from the wedding section. They are topped with glass pearls.









This was a fun swap and I've signed up to do a second round, 5 spots again.
