I hosted some card challenge swaps on swap-bot in my Use Your Stash series of swaps. One on dog/cat, one on purse cards, one on fashion.

Cat cards

Purse cards with Top Note

One of the physicians’ I work for received this black embossed card and of course, they didn’t care how “pretty” it was, and me being the “shiney sh*t saver” I am, I had to have this base card –they could keep the invite part that was inside! I’ve had it laying around for a few months, and after my summer cleaning this week, I came across it again and thought it would be perfect for this swap.

And for this last card, I had an example using coffee filters on cards laying around my craft desk for months, so today was the day the inspiration finally hit me for it. LOVE how it turned out! Just used the Big heart punch from Stampin Up! for the bustier and a tiny flower punch to kind of bring out the flowers in the ribbon. Of course I made a few of these with a tiny bit of variety for each.
