Card Chain Swap

 Morning and I have another two posts today -the second  one is for the Card Chain swap and 32 cards were exchanged.

I used the colour options,flowers,embossing powder and ripped edges.and sent my card to Pia in Norway-we have been following each others blogs for a few years now.

The stamp and sentiment is from  AALL&Create coloured with promarkers,gold embossed edges and P.paper from Blossom Meadow-Craft and You.

This is the card I received from Jo in the UK

Your card looks amazing Carol, such a pretty stamp, the colours you have used seem to work so well with the backing paper and card.

Your card is so different to the one you received from Jo with its clean edges and bold colours.
