Teen/Male convention swap



It always seems like the hardest cards to make are the ones for men and teen boys. I joined a swap at convention specifically for these types of cards. This is my swap for it. I'm excited to see what I will get back! The star spins. I found this idea on Dawn's blog. Such a fun twist!

Recipe:
Stamps: Wanted, Celebrate Everything
Ink: Baha Breeze, Robin Hood Red, Chocolate Chip
Paper: Kraft, Baha Breeze, Whisper White, chocolate chip
Other: Small and large star punch, stampin' dimensionals

I find myself using this greeting set, Celebrate Everything, on all of my cards lately. I love the big clear font on the celebrate and then the smaller words you can use with it. Check in tomorrow for more convention swaps!
