Fall Swaps - Group 3

Hi there!  Back with some swaps from Sally Nusbaum's Fall "Regional" held Sep 28.  The above card was made by Jayne Singleton.  Those small blooms were a labor of love.  I watched her snip some of those small flowers to make the blooms.  What patience - and a lovely card!

Nancy Gittemeier used the single stamp Christmas Star by Stampin' Up! for her card.  A very striking and clean look with just a touch of bling in the lower right corner.  This stamp is not just for Christmas, either!

This card was created by Marla Schack.  She used the Truly Grateful set.  Now I want this set!  I especially like the wheat image.  There is also an acorn image not shown here.  The sentiment is from the Tags 4 You set.

This swap came from Nita Mann.  The largest snowflake was cut from our Silver Glimmer paper using the Festive Flurry Framelits.  She finished it off with some silver ribbon and a Frosted Finishes Embellishment (found on page 28 of the Holiday catalog).  This card really sparkles!  Too bad the camera can't capture all that sparkly goodness!

Must run - have tons to do before leaving tomorrow.  Thank you so much for visiting today!
