•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...
This is the card I made for a Bella Swap in the SCS Bella Forum. I chose to use frizzybella. Isn't she so cute! :D I just made one card for now. I am going to do the rest when I get back from Hawaii! (Countdown....2 days!) I just knew if I didn't get an idea in my head I would be thinking about the whole trip! :D For the card I used my favorite CTMH paper packet ~ Whoops-a-Daisy! I love, love, love, this paper! I colored miss frizzybella in using Kiwi, for her shirt, Watermelon for her pants, and I used Taffy for her skin. I don't have a color specifically for the skin, so all I do is get my blender pen out and swipe it on the ink pad..then I color a little off on scrap paper, then color her skin! It's a long process, I know, but it works well! I used SU! Close to Cocoa for her hair. The sentiment is stamped in CTMH Archival Black and is from the You're Special Stamp Set! I love the whimsy look! I also embossed the sentiment and frizzybella's shoes, shirt, and pants! I took pictures, so you could (kind of) see! And like most of my cards, I used 3-D foam squares for some dimension! It is so hard for me NOT to use these in all of my cards! :D

Well that is it for now, I have to go finish getting packed for Hawaii!
