Card Chain Swap Reveal

Morning and time for the Card Swap challenge and  28 cards were exchanged. I went with the colour option-Old Rose/Lilac/Marigold and my card went to Ellie in USA.

I used the Magnolia stamp from Chocolate Baroque coloured with promarkers, cut out with a Spellbinders die and distressed whilst still in the die, strips of offcut p, paper from The Paper Boutique.




My beautiful shaped card from Arlene in USA.



 PLEASE NOTE IF ANY CHALLENGES HAVE DIGIS FOR PRIZES-I AM JUST PLAYING FOR FUN AND SUPPORT AS I HAVE NO PRINTER

Your magnolia looks stunning in those colours. It is funny, but when I saw them I didn't like them much, but when you put them together they look amazing. Arlene's card is really very special too xx
