Ready Set Go

Well I'm off to Convention.  I have just completed 75 Technique Swaps with a group from Canada.  Now if that wasn't enough, I committed to a Shoebox Swap in Salt Lake City.  We had to design a card, make 25 of them and then prepare for another 24 cards that were going to be made by 24 participants.  Because all of us will be making 24 cards in 3 hours or less, we almost have to make the second set of cards.  Again, I put my foot in my mouth and quickly said that I would join in a PJ swap.  We had to make 12 WOW cards.  This was the one I had the hardest time doing because of the talented ladies in the swap.  I was worried that it was going to be good enough.  Well, I tried a new type of card.  It is  called a Slider Card.  I had mine completed before it showed  up on Splitcoast.  I was pretty excited about that considering that it just went there this week.  I used one of my favorite stamp sets called Autumn Splendor.  I hope they like it. Then ……… I did two sets of 50 card fronts to swap at the Convention for a total of 237 swaps.  Wowza !  I actually got them all done !  Now I can't wait until Convention starts on Wednesday the 21st.  Here is a picture of the swaps before I packed them up.

Happy Stamping.
