Card Swaps Recieved - August 2015

This month I received lots terrific cards and one set of Christmas ATCs.  I truly enjoy handmade cards.  So what happens with all the cards I get, because honestly I love to make them but I don't very many out.  I donate them.  Yes, I give them away.  Birthday, Thank-You, Thinking of You, Get Well, and blank cards go to my kids elementary school and local charity shop.  (Yes, I am in my 50's with kids in elementary school-late starter in the parenthood game.)

August Card Swaps

I participated in several swaps this month in both card groups, USA Card Making and Card Crafts.   I really like the card groups they are laid back and very friendly, no rating and no ranting if you miss a deadline.   Some of the cards I made on Wednesday and a few were made a while back and were appropriate for the swap theme.   Here are the cards I made and shipped off to my card making friends.

Hello Again - Swap to share

I have not posted on this blog in many months.  Now I am back.  I still make cards and I have made many since the last time I posted.  I even joined a few card groups on Yahoo, USA Card Making and card Crafts, that I really enjoy.  I just sign up for monthly swaps and exchange cards and best of all there is no rating just a simple thanks from the receiver. if you enjoy making and swapping cards as I do you may want to consider joining one or both of these groups.  The swaps are well organized and everyone in both groups are very friendly and welcoming.

Today I am sharing cards I received in June from Lynda of USA Card Making. Thanks Lynda for some lovely cards and I truly love all shades of blue.
