•RiLeY sWaP!

So...
These are the cards I made for a Riley swap. The colors, I don't really use...ok...I've never used them, but I think they turned out great together! For these cards I used Riley in the tent..I'm not quite sure of the actualal name of the stamp, but I'm sure most of you have come upon these, somewhere! The ribbon is from, my favorite, Pebbles Inc. I took the picture with 3 of the card to show the different ribbons I used! :D Aren't they great?! :D


So this is one of ribbons I used. As you can see I used Really Rust and Chocolate Chip CS. I used White CS from Papertrey Ink.










Here's one with another ribbon. :D It's kind of hard to tell, but I chalked the background of the image w/ blue, green and brown.









This is the last patterned ribbon I used. I also used the Swiss Dots Embossing Folder with my Cuttlebug and I distressed the edges of everything with my distressing tool and wha-la! There it is!







So that is that for my swap cards! I have a couple of other swaps I am working on including a Bella Calendar Swap and a 6x6 Scrapbook page swap! They are both fun swaps to work on. In fact, the scrapbook page swap has one spot open still! The details of the swap are here, so go check it out, if you are interested! Have a great Wednesday! :D

So...
Here is a little Riley card I made this morning. Isn't he the cutest! I used SU! Cameo Coral CS for my background and drug it through my Cuttlebug with the Spots and Dots Embossing Folder. Riley is matted on a piece of DP Old Olive. The sentiment is from Unity Stamp Co. Cupcakes A'La Yummy Stamp Set. I used Stampin' Write Markers to color. I used Old Olive on the chair and ottoman and also Cameo Coral for the trim on the ottoman, Chocolate Chip for his hooves, Close to Cocoa for his body and for the cupcake, and More Mustard for his antlers. I used CTMH Bubblegum to color the frosting on the cupcake and Holiday Red for the goodie on top! I also used Cameo Coral to color the cupcake wrapper! Then I used the 1 1/4" circle punch for the DP punched circle and the 1" circle punch for the sentiment! I tied it all up with CTMH brown Ric-Rac! That is it for now...hopefully I will get some more done today!
