Hi Stampers,
Today was a great day for stamping - we had our first real snow storm of the year and for WI, it is kind of surprising that we haven't really had any snow before January! One of my old stamping friends came over to work on swap cards with me, and it was so nice to be in the house stamping, drinking cocoa and visiting with a good friend! I am hosting our downline group swap and my dining room table is full of beautiful swaps! I am just waiting on a few cards and then I will sort and pack them to mail.
Tonight I will share a card that I did for a smaller swap last week - I had to pick a new stamp set and make six different cards with it - for five people. It was a lot of cards to make but also a lot of fun - I always love the challenge of taking one set and trying to do a lot of things with it, I decided to use the Fresh Vintage set from the upcoming Sale-a-Bration brochure because I loved the colors in the pack of DSP that match the set. We will make some of these cards at my upcoming classes after Sale-a-bration starts!

I have one other thing I want to share tonight - during the holidays we had a lot of family gathered together so I wanted to have some fun things that we could all do together. A few days before everyone arrived I decided I needed to make a Bingo game. Actually - I tried to find one to buy, but that didn't work so I had to make one! Luckily one of my stamping friends/customers had the Jolly Bingo Bits stamp set and she was kind enough to loan it to me, so I was able to make 20 bingo cards! We had a great time playing Bingo - I printed the Bingo card from My Digital Software, and then filled in all of the little squares. Everyone in the family brought silly little gifts and things they wanted to regift for bingo prizes and it was a lot of fun!
