Swap-a-Palooza! Stay Tuned...

I just got my swap back in the mail today, and I am blown away..   There were a total of 31 participants so we each got 30 cards back (not our own). 


I'm going to post a sampling of the cards over the next few days.  Perhaps we'll all find a little inspiration for our upcoming Christmas card making.  :) 


Unfortunately not all of the cards were labelled, but if you see your card here and it's not properly identified please email me at iscrapnstamp@gmail.com and I'll fix that right up! ( I do have the master list of swap participants to refer to..) 



-- Stay Tuned ! --  


Would you like to see your Christmas card creation displayed here?  e-mail me a photo at iscrapnstamp@gmail.com
