My swaps are done!

And for once, I'm even EARLY! They aren't due until the 15th of November.... I still had TWO WHOLE WEEKS to work on them even! Must be so efficient because this way I can continue to procrastinate on starting Christmas cards.... he he he.... I'd say that I was procrastinating on working on Janice's Circle Journal but SHE STILL HASN'T MAILED IT TO ME YET (we were supposed to mail on October 15th... yeah, like TWO WEEKS AGO, meaning I will have 2 fewer weeks to work on my pages for her journal before I have to mail it to Melissa on December 15th which is the same time I mail Christmas cards, so my life ought to be STAMPING HELL real soon.....



ANYWAY - Here are my swap submissions:



I am in 2 rounds of the Tea bag holder swap. One was a Christmas theme and the other was a Love or Chocolate theme (and I couldn't find a chocolate square to put in there when I was taking the photo.... of course I found them this morning... sheesh....). All supplies (some retired) are Stampin' Up! except the Deckle edge scissors (Fiskars) and the Fruit Punch Stickles (Ranger) I used on the Chocolate one.

Colors for the Christmas one are Wild Wasabi, Ruby Red and Garden Green (craft ink embossed with Hologram Highlights) and the stamps are from Season of Joy and Terrific Tags 2. I also used the Tag Punches and my deckle scissors along with gold brads and the new gold elastic cord.

The Chocolate one is made with Close To Cocoa, Pretty in Pink, Rose Red (ink and Prints Designer paper) and Chocolate Chip. The hardware inside is from the Antique Copper HodgePodge set and stamps came from Lexicon of Love, Like it a Latte and Paisley (background). I used the deckle scissors as well as the edge distresser from the Cutter Kit.
