Swap Card

Hello there!  I thought I would share a swap card I have been working on all day.  Now I remember why I don’t do multiples of cards, lol.

I did take pictures of the process and will post a tutorial if it is within the swap rules.  I will check it out and post the tutorial if I can.

My heavens, I have to mention that I already have quite a few spots filled for the Buffalo, Minnesota workshops June 5 & 6 that I had just barely mentioned on an earlier post.  It is on my calendar now.   If you are in that area I would love to meet you!  E-mail me at mzindorf@aim.com for details. 

The spots are getting limited for the Wheaton, Illinois workshops, March 13 & 14.  There are a few spots left in Covington, Indiana for May 16 & 17 also.

I have even more news to share. . . . . . .I am now a Stampin’ Up Demonstrator.  If you see any of Stampin’ Up’s great products (such as the set I used for the card above “Branch Out”) and you just have to have them, please e-mail me or order directly online from me 24-7 from my Stampin’ Up website at http://michellezindorf.stampinup.net

Sorry, this post turned into a commercial, lol.  Hopefully I will be back with a grand tutorial tomorrow.

Hope everyone is staying happy, healthy and warm today.

Until my next post.. . . . . . . . .

Hugs,

Michelle

    Another goreous card, it reminds me of the end of winter…..the days are getting warmer, lawns are brown and there are still no leaves on the trees. That’s what our yards in Tx look like. I look forward to seeing the tutorial, thanks in advance for it. I also want to say congrats and good luck on your SU position, I hope it brings you much joy. I really wishyou could make it to the Houston area to teach, I know I’d sign up ASAP until then I will continue to look at your site on a daily basis!

    God Bless,
    Sammie

    This card has a different feel to it. Kind of sad. It would make a good sympathy card. It has a beauty all it’s own.
