A Swap Sneak Peak

Thought I'd share a sneak peek of the card I'm bringing to trade, or swap, with other demonstrators as the SU Regional Seminar in Milwaukee in April. I was looking for clean and pretty, a note card that could be used for literally anything. I found it in this combination of bright and vintage colors, using the smaller flower stamp from the Vintage Vogue set out of the Mini Occasions catalog.

Stamp Set: Vintage Vogue
Cardstocks: Elegant Eggplant, Sahara Sand, Whisper White.
Tools: Scallop Trim punch, Scallop Square punch
Inks: Creamy Caramel, Razzleberry, and Brilliant Blue

I really like the look of the Scallop Trim punch; it offers a lacy edge to the center strip. You could use this layout in multiple ways. If you shift the strip up or down, you can add a sentiment. You could also turn this card the other direction, and add a sentiment to the right of the strip. It's an enormously versatile layout that you can use to build dozens of designs from.

Think they'll like it in Milwaukee? :)

Yes, I do! That is exactly like what I was thinking of - something simple but well done that shows the product well. I'll be looking for you there.
