Card Swap Confessions
I joined a card swap group for SU! demonstrators and I'm a total slacker. I put off making all the cards until the very last minute. But I finished! I mailed them off this afternoon.
Here are the three swaps I did. The first two were using only Stampin' Up! products, and the third was a little bit of some fun things I recently acquired that were just screaming SCREAMING to be used. Isn't that Scenic Route paper delicious! (Thanks, Colleen)

All Holidays, Merry & Bright, and Three For You sets; Certainly Celery, So Saffron, and Wild Wasabi card stock; watercolor paper; Wild Wasabi Classic pad; Jet Black StazOn; Watercolor Wonder Crayons; AquaPainter; Real Red Wide Grosgrain; 1-3/8", 1-1/4". and 3/16" Corner Rounder punches. |

These are all gorgeous. I love your style - I think you have to be my favorite blog to check. Sorry I don't comment more :) TFS!!!
I recently found you blog!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your style!! These cards are faboo!!!!
What lovely cards you have & thank you so much for sharing! I am so happy that you share so as a new demo I can pass along great ideas & rave about what beautiful cards you make and your blog! The problem is I can't decide which to make for my Hostess Card Nights - right now I have four per evening because everything is so inspirational! Thank you again.
What beautiful cards you make! Thank you for sharing and for being such an inspiration!
They are all soooooo great. Love 'em!!
What I love most is the simplicity - you make just paper, usually no more than a few word stamps and ink look so fab! Kinda like those gymnists who make all those lovely moves look SOOO easy - but what it takes is talent, practice and TALENT some more. And you've certainly got the talent down to a science! Keep 'em commin'!
All are equally adorable!
Ooo, can't wait to get them, these are fabulous!
WAH! I want to be in a swap with YOU! Hahaha!! Kristina........seriously, I can't decide which one I like best this morning! They're all SO adorable! Makes me want to run to my studio and make a card! :) Thanks so much for the inspiration, Girly! You're a peach for sharing so many card ideas with us. (And can I just say that I check your blog every single day, and I just LOVE days when there are THREE cards to drool over! What fun!)

Your cards are very Beautiful..
Your talent and creativeness..really shines through. Thanks for sharing.
I just love your clean, crisp stamping style! Those are some lucky ladies involved in this swap to be receiving cards from you! They are all outstanding!
I'm one of the lucky ones to be receiving a couple of these! I've been stalking your blog hoping for a sneak peek! ;)
I'm always so excited to see your new creations. You're my absolute favorite on all of SCS and my favorite blog, too. Thanks for being generous enough to share your talent with all of us!
I'd love to know how you choose your colors. There is always a brightness to your work, even when you use dark colors. You use color combos that would never occur to me, I love the unexpected pop of color that I often see. I'd love to see a blog entry on how you choose colors someday!
OMG Kristina! I love, love, love your cards and cakes now too?!
Goodness...I wish I were in your swap! Amazing cards! Love them all!
These are super!! I get to swap with one of the amazing layouts!! You are so phenomenal in how it all just comes together...You could teach us online how you do it!!
Where does your inspiration come from? anyone? everything? Did you have formal training?
Great cards. I love your style.
You rock, twin sista! I totally needed ideas for three swaps I'm in next week, and your blog saved my not too tiny hiney. I adore you!
your Merry Christmas snowman card is so darn cute. I have some questions can you email me at (email removed).
I'm absolutely in love with your cards. clean and crisp. I'm interested in the Merry Christmas snowman card. How did you make what appears to be designer paper piece? I'm not finding this in the catalog. thanks
Hi,
I absolutely love your Merry Xmas card the first one with the All Holidays and Merry & Bright set...I hope you don't mind me CASEing it for my convention swaps with minor changes. I will give you credit of course! -Olga
