This morning we gathered for the Free Card Exchange. The exchange takes place every other month.
It was soooo nice to share, learn, listen, & relax. The cards keep getting better each time. Learning from one another certainly pays off!!!
The next exchange does not have a specific theme once again. We want to recycle, recycle, recycle! Let's face it, we all have many supplies sitting around waiting to be touched, played with, and used!!
Free Card Exchange, August:
Saturday, August 7th at 11am.
Our social gathering is just for fun. You DO NOT have to be in attendance for the actual swap.
If you can't attend Saturday, August 7th at 11am.....you DROP your cards off. You must bring your cards to one of the two drop-off locations by Friday, August 6th. On Monday, August 9th, your cards will be ready for pick-up from the same location your dropped them off. You will ooooohhhh and awwww over the cards you receive in return! Some of the cards will come with directions explaining techniques used etc.
Send us an email if you would like to participate in the August Exchange.
Your cards should be very similar in color, theme, etc. They do not have to be identical but please try your best to make them as close as possible. Each card must come with an envelope.
You will never have to make more than 20 cards! (Easy right???)
The "In a Pickle" card shown here was one of my absolute favorites!!
Bless Nicole's little heart. She drives almost an HOUR to share in the joys of the exchange!
Nicole made her card using a transparency. It was cut into the shape of a 2-sided jar using a Cricut cartridge. She then smeared green alcohol ink on the back piece of the transparency. The pickle "layers" inside the card were also made using a Cricut cartridge.....so darn genius!!
Too bad I didn't have this card two weeks ago.....my son got caught in a "pickle" during a baseball game (unfortunately, he was not safe ...*sad face*). This card would have been a cute surprise for him!!
I would love to do the card exchange! [email protected]
