2011 Stampin Up Convention Swaps - Post 1

Whew another week has flown by - can you believe that this week will be seeing us into June....eeek!  Thought I would share a few of the amazing swap cards that were on display at Convention this year.  Apologies to the creators, names were not able to be seen, but who ever you are......Wow what a talented bunch of stampers!   So here we go, starting off with the swaps board themselves (can't you just hear the click click of cameras....

I loved the background shading of this owl card..

I can tell you about this one..created by my up-up-line the wonderful Shannean - don't you love the colours!

What a great idea for a "window" card  I really like these colours for a male card

Shall be back in the next few days with more convention pics, hope you like the samples...Joc x
