Swap Card for Leadership

I'm on my way to Nashville, TN for Stampin' Up! Leadership. This is the first year that I have been qualified to go. I'm so excited! These events are always so much fun & I always learn so many new things & meet so many new people. Thursday and Friday will be filled with great classes, make & takes hundreds of fellow stampers.

As I mentioned before, one of the features of attending Stampin' Up! events is swapping with other Demonstrators. Most swapping is just done randomly, but some are actually organized. I joined one organized swap using the Simply Scrappin' Kits, but I also was able to get a few cards made to swap randomly. Here is the card I made.

I used the new Create a Cupcake Stamp Set and coordinating Build a Cupcake Punch found in the Occasions Mini Catalog. Oh my goodness this set & punch are so much fun to use! I can't wait to create more cards and scrapbook pages! I wanted something bright & cheerful, so I pulled out my Peach Parfait & Pear Pizzazz Cardstock from the new In-Color Assortment and the coordinating 1/2" Stitched Poly Twill Ribbon. I also used my Big Shot, and the Scallop Square Duo Die, which is being carried over from the Holiday Mini. You can see all of the other items being carried over by clicking HERE. These are items that were in the last mini that can still be ordered, even though they are not shown in a catalog at this time.

I'm going to try to post while I'm gone. We'll just have to see how the time goes. Thanks for stopping by today!
