First Card Exchange of the Year!!

Today is the first card exchange of this year!  We started the card exchange when Paper Vineyard was still around.  This is our third year of meeting once a month and exchanging theme based cards. 

It is a great way to socialize (of course!) plus share different tips, card layouts and techniques. Although the exchange started in a scrapbooking store it doesn't require monthly purchases. items.  In fact, all of us take pride in utilizing goodies we already have. 

It also is a monthly discipline in getting your assignment done!  This month the theme is birthday cards.  You can never have enough cards ready for certain occasions...and this is one of them!!

Here is a photo of my card for the exchange today.  It is a safe bet I would have something from Grapevine Designs & Studio on my card.  For this exchange I painted and used stickles to decorate the trio candles.  Super easy to do and with the black and green colors the card can work for anyone.

Send me an email if you are ever interested in joining the card exchange group.  The date, times and themes are already set for the year so it can be easy to figure out which exchanges would work for you.

Happy Sunday,
Adriana
