Convention swap

The production line is in full swing here in the craft room. With convention just a week away, I have been working on cards to swap, cards for a shoebox swap and, let's not forget, the wedding invite project continues.

This pretty in pink creation is for the shoebox swap. Stampin Up has this darling fabric that matches our color collection and DSP (designer series paper).  I have sewn 50 yoyos, after cutting the large scallop circle on the Big Shot. The pink daisies are die cut on the Big Shot and the background is stamped in white craft ink using Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set.  The black scallop circle is cut using the brand new punch featured in the summer mini catalog.

The big WOW on this card is the fabric flower: it is attached to a bobby pin and can be easily removed to wear in your hair or act as a bookmark. I love this idea! It has been around forever, but  I think it makes my swap extra special!

Happy Stamping!
