AUGUST THEMED SWAP--SCENIC--SWAPPED--SPOILERS PAGE 3

[azemigh]

The theme for this month is SCENIC . Please create your cards featuring a scene on the front. This can be a Zindorf style inspiration or a scenic stamp such as Stampscapes; it can be a landscape, seascape or any kind of "scape" you want to create.


This is a 4 for 4 card swap (with envelopes please). You make 4 following the theme---Scenic--- and you will receive 4 different cards back. As always, please enclose postage for the return. I will reuse your envelope if I can.

You do not need to sign up, but please post here that they are on their way if you are playing this month or you have any questions. This is also the place to post if you have any teasers to share.

And remember, IF YOU DON'T PLAY, YOU DON'T GET ANY COOL CARDS!!!!!

PLEASE SEND SO THAT THEY ARRIVE TO ME BY THE 28TH OF AUGUST. I WILL BE POSTING THE SWAPPED CARDS BACK BY THE LAST DAY OF THE MONTH AND WILL RETURN ANY THAT ARRIVE TOO LATE.

PM me if you need my address or you can find it in the address forum.

Does anyone have any suggested sites for samples and tutorials for this type of stamping?

[azemigh]

[azemigh]

Whoo hoo!

[azemigh]

Paula's arrive yesterday!!! And I must say, if you haven't been playing with us, this is the month you want in on the goodies!!! I'm just saying, WOW, Paula!!!

[Paula]

I have to tell you all the truth. When I was looking ahead in January, this was the one month that I thought I would skip. I was not confident with any of these techniques, and I had zero faith in my stamping talent. But, as it turned out, this is the technique that I challenged myself on, and I am so glad that you like it Rachelle!
You are the champion of this arena and it means a lot that you complimented my cards. Thank you for the kind words!!

I am so struggling with this theme!

I am so struggling with this theme!

if you don't want to create a scene you can just use a single scenic stamp and color it or stamp it on a cool background. It could be a town, forest, beach, lake,..... whatever. I know you've got something
