Here's my stunning card from Little Jan. It's made on the Cricut, and the colours are simply beautiful. I've taken close ups too so that you see the intricate die-cut layers and the sparkly rhinestones. The feathery fibres are lovely. Thank you so much LJ.

That's really kind of you LJ, I have started to stamp and experiment a bit lately hence my card to Millburn. It's early days but I am enjoying it. I may just catch the bug and yes hopefully I will continue to do the monthly swap because it really did make me use what grey cells I have left, so it helps me to be given guidelines and themes.

I agree with LJ; your stamping and the colouring Eyeful are :up: just lovely; it got another airing on the coffee table this morning after I'd finished cleaning, it is very good

WOW. Another beautiful card eyeful. I tried to make mine lengthways but just couldn't make it work. You've managed to 'balance' the card nicely with the 3 sections. So pleased that you're going to continue with the monthly swaps!

Thanks Victoria and Millburn for your lovely comments, I have good days and bad days as do most of us I guess. Yes I'm definitely going to do the monthly swaps now, you've all given me such great support. Thanks.

Wow ladies, I only just thought to check this thread as I didn't have a card myself for the Feb swap. What some beautiful creations. Not to single anyone out but Eyeful you don't need to practice stamping and colouring because from what I can see you have it down perfectly.

Please dont think that, we all had to start somewhere, and if no one joined then we wouldnt have all these lovely cards to look at, its just a bit of fun and we are not here to critisize each others work, i haven't closed March's list so do consider joining in :happy:
