Swap Sisters Feb 2010 ~ Melissa

Missing from picture: Vegemite and word brads!


Check out the detailed hand cut butterfly and flowers.



Boxed set of note cards!!!

The lovely gift boxes hid the choccies.


So I met a great bunch of gals on another board and one of them ~ Sue started up a site where we can hang out and share ideas and lots of laughs: voila Swap Sisters was born!

I was lucky enough to sign up for a swap with one my Aussie friends ~ Melissa ~ whom is also on the Swap Sisters Design Team. OMG, she spoiled me ROTTEN. Seriously!!!!! Love everything and the choccies are to DIE for!! I'm so proud of myself that I have managed to exercise great will power and not devour all the choccies in one sitting! :) Oh and I forgot to take a pic of the Vegemite that she sent for me to try...let's just say that it's an interesting taste..me thinks one needs to acquire the taste! ;)

THANK YOU Melissa for the bestest Happy Mail!!!! {{hugs}}

Ghosting.....

So this week's challenge was the *ghosting* technique over at Swap Sisters......a bit challenging as I have several pieces stamped but couldn't figure how to create a card...but I was determined...so here we are...my new felt flower embellies and voila....

Swap Sisters has several weekly challenges and the gals there are FAB!!!

Thanks for dropping by.

Enjoy.......

So Aunti Joan over at Lil Scrappers....challenged us to make a card with a photo and bling....after I took the photo, I added a flower rhinestone to the center of the *O* ....just, haven't had a chance to retake the photo...so you can use your imagination! ;)

Deets: All Stampin Up except for Scrapbook Sally blossoms and button from stash!

Rub ons only....

So another challenge from the Lil Scrappers weekend challenge was to make a card with rub ons only and embellies...without any pattern paper and card stock besides the base....alittle daunting at first..like how do you do that??

Well I finally open two packages of rub ons that have been sitting in the stash...SEI flower rubs and Creative Imaginations rubs....add some bling and velvet ribbon and Voila!!!!
