Reworking Convention Swaps

The Stampin' Up! Convention was so fun. I highly recommend you all go next year! One of the fun things about Convention is swapping. Thousands of women have cards, scrapbook pages, 3 D items, anything that stands still enough to be stamped and brought to Convention is there! Some of the swaps I got were perfect for workshops, others were perfect for clubs, still others worked for classes. So, I reworked this one that one of my friends got into something that worked for me.

Stamp sets: Big Pieces, Little Pieces, Holiday Wishes
Ink: Blue Bayou, Soft Sky, River Rock
Paper: Whisper White, Blue Bayou, River Rock Designer Paper (Palette of Prints)
Accessories: 3/4" circle punch, dimensionals

The one on the left is my version of the Make and Take from Convention. So, this wasn't a swap, but the idea is the same. Did you know you can dry emboss with the Crop-a-dile? Did you notice those dry embossed circles across the top of the PP and RR paper? I used the Crop-a-Dile to do it. I also can't believe how easy it is to set eyelets with it. I am really enjoying this tool! I didn't buy it before because it looked so cumbersome, but when I used it at Convention, boy, was I sold!
