Swap Round 2 - Month 5

Wendy sent out a great kit with some fun Scenic Route papers and a lot of wonderful embellishments! and no, of course I didn't take a photo! but if you check out Arlyn's blog she did! (thank you!)

Wendy included this great embossed card. I knew I needed to do some with those hexagons! I added the little bee brad.

when you forget that you already made a Father's Day card, an Operation Write Home sketch #176 can really come to the rescue! this was actually the first card I made with the kit and it was made and mailed in an hours time! still got there late.......slowpoke mail to Hawaii! oh well! I added the button, brads, and ribbon to the kit.

I loved the die cut that Wendy included in the kit and finally figured out a way to show it off! the only thing I think I added to this card from my stash were the alphabet stickers.

I like this card because I actually finally used a stamp that I was really excited to buy! it supports Operation Write Home......and is based on Sketch #177.  I flipped the sketch on its side and centered everything. I didn't realize it wasn't suppose to be centered! oops!

thanks so much for looking! be sure to check out what everyone else did with the awesome kit! one month to go......
