We always have a great time at our area meetings.  We share lots of good ideas, do a card swap and some make and takes.  Here are the make and takes from Saturdays meeting.  Pam brought the first one – using the Branch out stamp set.  I’m going to have to add that set to my wish list!  The second card was my design.  I saw a similar card on a blog, but wanted it sized to fit a medium envelope.  So I played with the measurements to make the side-step card.  The stamp set is A Good Egg and the eggs are punched from the free Delicate Dots designer paper using the wide oval punch.

Here are a few of the swap cards.  The first 2 are by Pam and Maxine:

This one was mine.  I found the idea for the vases online.  They are made from the small oval punch and the tab punch.  Just snip in a couple of places for a very easy vase.  I used the Celebrate Everything stamp set because that sentiment would make a nice Easter card if you don’t have a stamp set specifically for Easter.  The flowers are Sweet Stems, another versatile set.
