Well since last post I was working on my Convention Swaps! Oh My was I working my tail off! In between all that I was also getting ready for Vacation left on the 10th and just got back today and will be leaving again tomorrow. Meant to post while on vacation BUT had a bad connection with the service (kept getting booted off) I honestly tried! LOL! But we had a great time in Pismo Beach!!! We LOVE it there! We are headed to Vegas then off to Utah to Stampin' Up!s Convention! Woo Hoo! I am so excited. My Hubby and son are coming with me this year! Should be interesting! I warned DH already! LOL! Well I wanted to post a few teases on 1 of the Swaps that I did. It's for Barbara Jackson's Over the Top Swap! I will show the full Card a little later! For now this is what I'm showing!
How's that???? I know what a tease huh? Sorry about that! LOL!
I really like how this card turned out! I made 51 total…yes LOTS of cutting out and punching and glitter.
This is another part of the card! Until tomorrow thanks for stopping by and will be posting more so stay tuned!

Blog Candy Winner is…
Good Afternoon All! First let me apologize for the delay. I just got my computer back up and running. UGH! So without further delay the Blog Candy Winner is…..
Brayering Technique
Here are the cards that I did while in Florida! Now if you haven't done this Technique yet it is SO a must! So much fun to do! Warning – you will get inky! ; ) I first saw this Technique at one of our Udderly Awesome meetings in Duarte, Ca. being demonstrated by Trinia Magana. Loved it!!!! Just never had a chance to try it out til last week!
Thanks Sharon for being so patient with me! LOL!! I had a major Death Grip on the Brayer and I don't know why?? LOL!!! Glad that wasn't on video it so wasn't pretty at all. Need to learn to relax. It does take practice and lots of it to get the looks you want.
But the outcome is SOOO worth it. You can get so many different looks. As I mentioned you will get inky but you can use thin latex gloves if you need to and you'll for sure need some Non-Alchol baby wipes for your Brayer.
Hope you enjoy the samples and tomorrow I'll be sharing a few more with links on the Tutorials from Sharon Field.
