This card uses a set called Great Friend. I had seen this layout about a year ago or so. I decided to make it work for this stamp set even using one of the new In Colors. I have used Bermuda Bay, Old Olive & Chocolate Chip. I also used the Big Shot with a circles die for the 2 circles in the middle.
I am involved in several swaps at the Stampin' Up! Convention to be held Aug 4th through August 8th in Salt Lake City, UT. This card will be used for a shoebox swap I am attending. We have to have 22 cards completed & enough prepared for 21 people to make it there. I will have 42 swap cards just from this swap alone. I also am going to my roommates Team Meeting & have 30 swaps already made to share there. Can you believe this team has adopted me. That is one of the great things about being a demonstrator. I have met so many wonderful people, not only You, my customers but also fellow demonstrators from all over the US & Canada.
Not sure what a swap or shoebox swap is? A swap is where we take card fronts & trade with other demonstrators. This gets us more ideas & we have cards to share with our customers. This helps to show you stamp sets I have not purchased that you might be interested in & also new layout or color ideas I might not have used. A shoebox swap is where you bring a card & all the products needed to make it. You set it up at a spot at the table & then go around making all the different cards.
I am also considering this card for my Stamp Camp coming up the end of July. What do you think? Would you like to make this cards?
