Feathered Friends ATC Swap

Hello again!
I recently participated in an ATC swap on StampHappy called "Feathered Friends". You saw the ATCs I made for this swap HERE. Well, here is a photo of the lovely ATC's I received in return. Aren't they lovely!!

Remember, you can click on the image for a larger, clearer view.

These ATCs are from the following ladies, clockwise from top left: Pauline Laing; Elizabeth White; Pam Peters; Sue Bunt; Nikki (the Paper Pixie); Sandra McKenna.

These are all so lovely and are more fab cards to add to my collection.

Have a great day!

!-4-1 ATC Swaps on StampHappy

Well, I am starting to feel much more like myself today. Still have a cough, but the new meds seem to be helping and I am starting to feel better.

To start the ball rolling again on my blog, I am going to be sharing some swaps and things I have received, as well as some cards I made for LSBS. They will be on separate posts to make viewing easier.

First up I have some 1-4-1 ATC's I have received from some talented ladies from the StampHappy Yahoo group. For those who don't know, a 1-4-1 swap means one for one. In other words, you make and send one person something and they make and send you something in return, instead of making lots of the same thing to be swapped with lots of people.

So, you saw the returns I made a while back HERE, but I never managed to photograph the ATC's I have received. Now, for your viewing pleasure, here they are, in no particular order:

Isn't this koala cute, especially the way the leaf moves.

Thanks so much ladies for these beautiful ATCs. They make a lovely addition to my ever growing collection!

Have a great day!

Stamphappy Swap

Hiya!!

Today I am sharing a card (front) I created for a Swap on StampHappy. The theme is simply "Roller Stamp (Any Brand)". So, I chose this fence roller from Rollergraph. It was my first ever roller years ago, and is still one of my faves, even thought I don't use it as often as I ought to.

As usual, you can click on the images for a larger view.

Recipe:
Cardstock (lilac Bazzill, purple Office Works)
Watercolour paper (Arches 300gsm)*
Rollergraph stamp
Stazon Inkpad - Jet Black
Heidi Grace Stamps (friend) "Urban Acres Blvd"
Butterfly stamps (Avon)
Black gel pen
Watercolor pencils (Crayola) & waterbrush

*This is some of the best quality watercolour paper I have ever come across!
I would recommend this to anyone who love the SU! Watercolour paper.
You can buy Arches in pad (as I did) in sizes ranging from A5 to A3.
I bought mine at Eckersleys. Love that shop!

Have a great day!
