I’ve got more cards to share from the Summertime One-for-One Swap. I think you are going to love these just as much as you have loved the others. Please let these artists know how much you adore their work, and if you received their card, please let everyone know how beautiful the card was in person – there’s not an ugly one in the bunch. 🙂 If you haven’t seen your card yet, please wait to comment so that we can make sure the creator sees your thanks and praise.
These cards don’t all use current Stampin’ Up!, but they give great color cobminations, layouts and ideas for beautiful card designs. Let’s get this party started!
I hope you enjoyed these cards. I know I sure loved seeing them all as they paraded their way out of my mailbox, through my living room and then to the Fungeon for picture-taking. I was excited to drop them in the mail because I know the excitement they would bring to the recipients.
Please let these artists know how much you love their cards.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

These are all so nice!!!! Thanks for sharing Brian.
all are GORGEOUS… I especially love Marsha’s St. Patrick’s Day card!
Thanks for all of the inspiration, Brian!
Oh WOW!! Another gorgeous parade of fabulous cards!!! I love Sonny’s rainbow card, how did you apply the three colors on that flower stamp, my friend?? The one other card she made with the little bird looks amazing with the beautiful embossing folder around the image, I must get the framelets you used to cut the bottom half of the green card stock, what an elegant detail. All of this cards are little works of art, how fantastic that we all have the chance to show off our talents and creativity and share it here, on Brian’s blog. I look forward to his card swaps because we can all see the different styles and techniques from wonderful crafters around the Country. Thank you ladies, for this feast to the eyes, and thanks again Brian, for being such a wonderful host.
Thank you Maria for your compliments. The Kindness flower is so easy to use in many different ways that any color you choose looks good so I thought a mix of colors would look good with that dsp that was my gift during Sale A Bration . And I used the Floral Framelets on both of my cards shown . Aren`t these cards shown today so pretty and colorful ? It`s like they put on their prettiest dresses to have their pictures taken !!
You are so right, my friend. All of the cards are wonderful, there are lots of great ideas for layouts and combination of Cars Stock and colors and also, so many different creative styles to learn from. Thank you to all the participants!!
I love seeing all these cards! Gives me inspiration and I want to go to my craft cubby….I can’t I have to pack! Lol!!
Really nice job ladies! Love them all….Nancy, I received your butterfly card, it is so lovely in person….the colors just coordinate so well and the butterflies are just perfect….thanks Brian for such a fun thing to do.
Thank you Tammy. Sorry I didn’t get to comment sooner, I hope you do get to read that I am so happy you liked my card. I have never participated in a card swap before, so you (and Brian) are my first.
How was the flower card and bird card done please they all beautiful Ty for shareing
Another great group of cards and inspiring ideas for me to try. Thanks to all for your great creations.
Lovely cards ladies! I received the card from Nancy and it’s so bright and cheerful. Thanks Nancy and thanks Brian for another awesome swap?
Traci, So glad you liked the card. Blue & Yellow are my favorite colors. (I hope that little red dot is on the photo and not on the card.)
Brian, thanks again for doing this swap!
Vary nice thank you all for sharing !!
hugs frenchie ,
Very pretty cards!
Gorgeous cards! Every single one of them…great creativity!
Love the cards! Thanks for sharing.
On another note . . . Brian, I’m waiting for a report on the Convention highlights. Rising Star, it looked like you really rocked with the throng of demos who surrounded you during your presentation.
Beautiful cards Brian! It was great to meet you at convention, even though it was difficult to give you a hug since I am only 5’2″! LOL! Congratulations on all of your accomplishments (not sure if you have shared them all with your blogger friends) ; )

How exciting to get another installment!
Nancy, your two cards are so very different! The butterfly card is stunning and elegant while the bold blue and yellow is fun and flirty! Who does not love polka dots?
Marsha, your two cards are very similar in layout but with different colors and stamps your can certainly have two WAY different looks! Your St. Patrick’s Day card is so bright and cheery while your baby card is so SWEET! Love that framelit set.
Alice, your seashell card is a very well executed CAS card! It is simply striking and simply gorgeous!
Sonny, I am the lucky recipient of your “rainbow” card! When opened it is immediately put a HUGE smile on my face! It is so HAPPY! My six year old said, “Mom, it’s your favorite color! All of them!” 🙂 Your other card is so very unique and elegant! I am sitting here studying it and trying to see HOW you did that edge! I don’t usually CASE my ideas but I just may have to with this one and hope you consider it a sincere form of flattery! 😉
Thanks Brian for hosting this swap!
Valerie
I love the card Marsha did with the Noah’s ark. Also like the card by Sonny with the bird. Beautiful cards all of them.
Amazing how much talent and creativity exists within Brian’s group of followers. Well, I shouldn’t be surprised – a creative leader lends itself to creative followers. Great job everyone!
Thanks Valerie for your kind words! And Thank you Tammy F for your bee utiful card! I love the colors you used. I want to let everyone who participated that I really enjoyed seeing your creations!! Also a big hug to Brian for hosting again!! This is swap #3 for me and each one is so much fun!! TTFN
Beautiful cards!!!
Thank you Sonny and Valerie for your kind words. This is my first time for a card swap like this. I love the idea that Brian is doing this. I didn’t even realize the cards were similar. I love the framelits and the baby card was designed for my sweet Great Niece of 7 months. Thanks again.
Oops, I meant to thank you Brian, for giving all of us the opportunity to comment and share our thoughts. It’s great and the cards just get better and better. So many beautiful colors and ideas for all of us. A great big THANK YOU to you Brian for your great ideas and cards and sharing them with all of us.
Beautiful cards all, I received Marsha’s beautiful baby crd, just adorable and just in time for a new baby girl that just arrived, tho, I hate to give it up, I’m certain this Mom will cherish it. Thanks again Brian.
More wonderful cards. Kudos to everyone.
My apologies to Judith for responding so late in the game to her amazing fishbowl card. I am the lucky recipient and I squealed with joy when I opened her card. Thanks so much for inspiring and super cute card (day 3 of Brian’s posts). It was great to meet you, Brian, even though it was brief at convention. Please continue these swaps (think Halloween!) as it is a great way to showcase so much talent and our shared love of stamping!
More Beautiful cards!! There sure is a lot of talent!
Congratulations on your award and achievement!!! I tried to find you at convention to actually meet you. I won one of your prizes for commenting on a project you had done a while back.
i REALLY LIKE THE CARD WHICH IS 6 DOWN FROM THE TOP.
HAS BIRD, AWESOME SCALLOP EDGING, GREEN CARD STOCK THT HAS BEEN EMBOSSED.
CAN YOU PLEASE LEAD ME TO MORE DETAILS ON HOW I WOULD GET THE SUPPLIES TO MAKE THIS card that reads JUST FOR YOU?
YOU WOULD TOTALLY MAKE MY DAY!
