More Cards from Swap!

Here is post #2 from the card swap using items from the **New** Summer Mini Catalog from Stampin' UP!

This first card is from Gloria Plunkett. Gloria used the set The Open Sea (#123032 clear stamp set or 123030 wood stamp set) and the DSP (Design Series Paper) that goes perfect with this set Nautical Expedition (#122343)  I love this stamp set and paper!

This card is so neat, Gloria!!

The next card is using the same set and paper and it is from Nancy Jacoby:


I love this idea that Nancy used!  She made it look like a old Captain's Ledger on the front using velum paper and a stamp from the set:


Isn't that fun?  She also used the new Baker's Twine (#123124) which is Early Espresso but also comes in white and cherry cobbler.

Another masculine stamp is the Sail Away stamp (#123013) It is just one stamp and great if you are on a budget.  This would be wonderful for a Birthday, Father's Day, Retirement, Congrats - anytime you need a more manly card:


Sadly, whomever made this card for the swap...did not sign the back :(  They did an awesome job and if you made it, please comment so we know who did it.

***Edit: Vinnie Cespedes emailed me that she was the one who made this GREAT card!  Thanks Vinnie for letting us know!!***

Thanks for stopping by!  I will have more posts showing some more of the swaps coming soon!

Wonderful cards! They are all CAS & very mailable! I especially like Nancy's card, with the fold-out on front. Neat idea! TFS

These are all very cool cards - especially the male cards which many of us struggle with. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing the rest.
