Card Swap Reveal

 Morning and time for the Card Chain Swap reveal  for August-26 cards were exchanged and I used the Tropical theme and I used the stamp from Sweet Poppy and foliage stamps from Pink Ink, all stamped onto an oxide smooched background, I also added a number strip from a kitchen roll insert.

My card went to Brenda in the UK.


Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

  30. The tropical theme is so beautifully expressed here—your smooshed background feels lush and organic, like a misty rainforest at dawn. That clever use of the kitchen roll number strip adds such a fun, unexpected texture, and the Sweet Poppy frog stamp nestled among the Pink Ink foliage is pure magic. It’s like he’s mid-leap, camouflaged yet cheeky. A truly imaginative and joyful swap card.
