Mini convention swap contender

I finally got my Stamping space cleaned up so I could play. YAY!!! I'm trying to come up with a swap for a Mini convention my upline is holding late August. I will have to make 36 full cards so I need it to be simple. I love how elegant this looks with it being really easy to mass produce. I used the leaf cuttlebug template and I sanded it with stampin ups sanding blocks to give it a real look. I always love using Acetate but I don't pull it out much for some reason. I stuck the acetate to the card stock by using my xyron.(works great). I just love using the tag note diecut. The stamp set is a New level 3 hostess set and is in this years su catalog. It's called kind and caring thoughts. Oh and be sure you use White stazon on acetate. It dries pretty quick and won't smear.

Does anybody think this would work for the mini convention swap? Thanks for stopping by. Terry

My Nephews Birthday card

My Nephew is turning 5 and His party is this weekend. I bet you could guess what the theme of the party is just by looking at the card. Yep, It's STAR WARS !!!! To make the lifesavers I used the tacky tape then just poured the glittler on. For the handles I used Stampin up retired punch. (name?) The happy birthday is a retired stamp set. I used itty bitty backgrounds too. Paper used was Basic black and brocade blue. I still may stamp the number 5 spuratic and fading a few times.
The Force be with you. TFL
