Working on some SWAPS!

I finally finished cleaning up from our Friday night party and had a chance to do some stamping.
Can you believe that UPS delivered my NEW Stampin' Up! stuff early - instead of coming today it came late on Friday afternoon. I couldn't even open up the box until Saturday because I was busy preparing for our guests to arrive.

I've trimmed and mounted a few new stamp sets and have been playing!

Here's a card I made for Lisa Rankin's Holiday Mini/New Christmas Swap.

if you're in this swap please don't CASE it for the swap. If you're not in the swap CASE away!

Stamps: Stampin' Up! Big on Christmas, Flannel Plaid background
Paper: Wild Wasabi, Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, Cerise Patterned Paper
Inks: Black, Wild Wasabi ink pads, Real Red, YoYo Yello markers and I made my own Wild Wasabi marker using the re-inker and a blender pen
Extas: Crystal Effects (on letters, star and balls), brads
I'm working on another card using this set for the NEW CATTY swap that I'm hosting.

• TIP: Make your own In-Colour markers by loading a blender pen with the reinkers. Cut out a 1/4 inch circle of the cardstock and adhere to the end of your blender pen to identify the colour.

Thanks for stopping by!
