Card Chain Swap Reveal

 Morning and time for the Card Chain Swap challenge reveal.


 

My card was sent to Linda in the USA.The theme was Tic,Tac.Toe and I went with green/slimline/scraps/ribbon/red.Scraps of P.papers and ribbon from stash and the little Christmas topper was cut from an oddment of paper.There were 26 cards exchanged last month.


This is the card I received from Mia complete with a little parcel of goodies all the way from Greece -thank you so much Mia.

Today although not 100% and a bad night I am up showered and dressed so after 6days fingers crossed it continues!

    Hi Carol. I am glad you received the card and you like my little goodies for you. I see that we used the same horizontal line for the Tic Tac Toe. The card you sent is really beautiful! I love the design. HAPPY NEW YEAR, my friend.

    We used the same bingo row but I think our cards turned out quite different even with the same options. Yours turned out elegant and with a warm traditional feel and a beautiful bow detail. Wishing you Happy New Year!

    What a fun challenge! Believe it or not, I mailed my first international mail 2 weeks ago. Maybe Iʻll get brave and give this one a try this year. Imagine getting a card as beautiful as the one you did, or the one you created. Perhaps you have inspired me twice in one day! Take good care, Carol!
