roster-cardSo this is something I hadn’t thought of before.  This is a card that I got at Leadership.  Sorry no name.  I love how they used the top note big die  and then cut out around it on the bottom of the card.  I thought this was a really neat effect.  I think I will have to give it a try.

Swapping Saturday 2-7-09

Today I thought I would share with you some of the Valentines day project Swaps I received at leadership.  These are just a few of my favorites.  You can check out more by clicking here.

I loved this bucket.  It was filled with a hot chocolate packet, a Hershey’s kiss on a spoon, a 2x4x6x8 box with marshmallows and a cute little envelop with a poem for hot chocolate.

This cute banner is made with coasters.  They used the big shot letters and the Love you Much Stamp set (113756, $25.95)
