It’s almost summmertime!!! I’m hosting a “”Summer Themed” Full Card Swap. Come join the fun. This is a customer card swap, however you can participate even if you are a demonstrator (we are customers too right hehehe).
This first card uses the Penant Parade Stamp Set #122740 wood, #122742 clear mount). I’ve posted a few more ideas below.
SWAP DETAILS
Theme: Summertime
Make 5 Full Cards of the same design using a “Summer” Standard Card size is: 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″, this is not a required size, just a guide.
Current Stampin’ Up! Materials: All supplies: including stamps, ink colors, papers, etc. should be current Stampin’ Up! products.Often we fall in love with a card we received in a swap and want to copy it. Swaps also help us think of new ways to use for our SU products we have. For these reasons the cards should have all current Stampin’ Up products.
IMPORTANT: Swaps should only contain stamps and accessories in the NEW Stampin’ Up catalog (no retiring/ed stamps, papers or accessories)
Cards must have a minimum 2 layers of card stock or designer paper. Most have more.
At least 1 embellishment (Ribbon, brads, etc) Most have more.
Please put your name and contact info on a sticky note on the back in case someone has questions, or uses your swap and wants to credit you. Recipes of the supplies/techniques you used are always welcome. Please don’t permanently stick labels to the actual card so we can use them.

Today we’re saying goodbye to one of my favorites, the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set #113734. Such a beautiful set, and this card is so beautiful and elegant. The design came from my friend Linda Cullen. She made this for a mother’s day card, I switched up the words for a sympathy card (her photo came out sooo much nicer lol).
The flower is done on Vellum Card Stock, before stamping brayer the vellum in Wisteria Wonder. Flip and use the opposite side (not the inked side) stamp the flower in versamark, 3 times and heat emboss in white. Cut out and layer the flower on top of itself with dimensionals.
Mine was a swap for the Stampin Up incentive trip a couple of weeks ago, see more great swaps on my Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/stampwithtami1

Stampin’ Rewards - $25 Free (and up) with orders over $150
Hundreds of stamps and accessories from the 2011-2012 catalogs are retiring on May 31, and this is your best chance to get them before they’re gone. Many products are only available while supplies last, so be sure to get your orders in early!
When you view the retiring stamps list, you may notice it’s longer than in years past. During this transition to the new annual catalog (released June 1), there are a higher number of stamps being refreshed and replaced than usual. While many stamps are going away, most are being replaced so that the breadth of our stamp lines is every bit as broad as ever! Be sure to read exciting news below on our new ink pad design!
Get them before they are gone! The retired accessoriesand Definitely Decorative (including Décor Elements) lists are now available and won’t stay around for long–these items are only available while supplies last!
When you look at the retired accessories list, you’ll note that all of our Stampin’ Pads are listed. This is for two reasons: (1) Craft Stampin’ Pads will now only be available in black and white; and (2) we are introducing a new Firm Foam pad in our Classic Stampin’ Pads with the 2012-2013 annual catalog. The Firm Foam pads offer better ink coverage and, in turn, better stamped images.
In addition, please note the following about the new catalog:
Only select Stampin’ Write Markers will be available individually (Stampin’ Write Markers in color collections will continue to be offered)
12″ x 12″ Textured Card Stock will no longer be offered
12″ x 12″ Smooth Card Stock will only be available in select individual colors and color collections
Watch as Shelli Gardner (CEO & Co-Founder of Stampin’ Up!) as she shares her thoughts on retiring and upcoming stamp sets and a practical way to approach all of the exciting changes this time of year brings.
