Team Swap
January 16, 2023
My team, Southern Stars, met on Saturday afternoon and I wanted to show you the cards created for our traditional swap. The theme was birthday cards so really any card would do. The first two are from the suite, BY THE BAY, on page 22 in the Mini Catalog. I am so proud of being a part of the development of this stamp set and love seeing the variety of beautiful cards produced! So exciting!

I am always in need of birthday cards and I love this one and plan to make a little stack as soon as I get some stampin' time! The balloon is die cut from the 2022-2024 In Color 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper on page 139 in the annual catalog. You have five colors to choose from to make the card ~ or, make all five! Enjoy!
Oh my! What a nice surprise!
