My Founder's Circle Swap

I will be arriving in St. George, Utah around 1:00 this afternoon and I cannot wait to see all my Stampin' Up! friends, we are gonna have a blast!! Thursday night, we have our Swap & Share event. I created 110 cards to swap during this event and I cannot wiat to show you all the wonderful items I will be bringing home. Be sure to check my FACEBOOK PAGE as I will be uploading lots of pictures there.

Here are, my Founder's Circle Swaps. Since I made 110 of these, if I never tie another knot, it will be too soon!!

These 110 cards needed:

220 passes through the Big Shot (110 with the Woodland Folder and 110 to create the thin Pumpkin Pie circle.
550 punches (330 Banners, 220 2-1/2 Circles)
550 Stampin' Dimensionals – I have dimensional backing papers everywhere!!
110 Fussy cut bears
110 Hand tied ribbon knots
330 stamped images

I used the adorable Thankful Forest Friends stamp set and the baby wipe technique. I folded two baby wipes in half and added drops of Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive inks to create a multi-colored stamp pad.

The bears were stamped in Early Espresso and fussy cut out. I also added the small leaf sprig to the Old Olive Banner.

The greeting was stamped onto Whisper White, I punched it out with the 2-1/2" Circle Punch and adhered it behind the tree embossed layer.
