Happy Sunday, Stampers! Thought I would speed up the process of showing you the swaps this month to give you a great Holiday Mini Kick-off by showing you all the Gently Falling Holiday Mini Catalog samples that came in my monthly swap the other day:
These are all made with the all 2-step stamping set, Gently Falling, on page 16-17 of the Holiday Mini. I received this set for free as part of a bundle that Managers and Senior Managers receive automatically during the pre-order period. This "telescoping" card was made by Brenda Hukriede:
Cute & easy, yes?

Next, this sample by Jan Rodrian also uses Hand-Penned Holidays from page 15 of the same Holiday Mini!

This brilliant beauty also has shimmer over the leaves and is by Kathy Morgan! The button is from the Spice Cake Designer Buttons.

Katy Simecka did a great job with her swap:

My sweet friend Rhonda Bassler make this one! That gorgeous paper on the panel behind the stamped leaves is from the Spice Cake Designer Series Paper on page 16!

Susie Wood combined the Spice Cake Designer Paper with More Mustard, Early Espresso, and the new Early Espresso 3/8" Quilted Satin Ribbon from page 30 of the Holiday Mini!

I've saved the best of the fall cards for last! Megan Wheeler used My Digital Studio to combine the current stamp set, With Gratitude, with the Spice Cake Designer Paper. You probably can't tell in the photo, which doesn't do it justice, but she has used the new Pewter Embossing Powder from page 31 of the Holiday Mini with "Hand-Penned Holidays" and a Vintage Brad to make this a "hybrid" card! "Hybrid", in case you don't already know, is when you take the My Digital Studio-printed products and combine them with cardstock and accessories to merge the best of both worlds!

There will be a post tomorrow, so until then, have a "stampingrox!" day!
