Stamping on Paper Daisies
I participated in a couple of swaps over the summer holidays – always a fun way to see other styles and share ideas. I love that about stampers! There is such a sense of community and support as we teach each other new techniques and share projects. (That's why I love blogging too!)
During the week I'll be sharing gorgeous projects I received from Aussie and NZ members of SUDSOL (it's a subscription based online group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators).
I've been a member of SUDSOL for a few years now and really enjoy being part of the group. The majority of members are from the U.S. so there are occasionally things that don't apply to us Aussie demonstrators – but one side benefit is we're also the first to hear of things that are coming up! LOL. The group has an email loop, online galleries and a huge website full of files, info, tutorials, techniques, resources and other things to help us demonstrators. And with the way the Aussie dollar is at the moment it's great value too. (p.s. Demonstrators: You can get a free 2 free trial by clicking here. Not yet a demo?

The card I made for the swap is at the top of this post (click on it to enlarge). It uses the Sale-a-bration stamp set called Bliss (love it!) and the paper daisies that are on p140 of the Idea Book & Catalogue.
I can vouch for how beautiful this card is as I received one of the swaps. Just gorgeous.
