Card Swap Thursday: Wood Words Thank You

Welcome to Card Swap Thursday!  Over the past few months I have taken part in a number of card swaps, and I really love sharing the cards that I receive from my fellow demonstrators.  This week’s card uses the stamp set Wood Words, and it’s actually my card, created for a Wood Words card swap.  I love the symmetrical look of quilts on both cards and in my cross stitch.  Ironically, I’m not a quilter, and have no desire to take up the hobby.  I’ll leave that to the creative sewers that I know.  They create some gorgeous quilts that I admire from afar (and on Facebook).

I actually created two different samples of this card, when I was trying to decide whether I wanted to go with the Crumb Cake card stock or Sahara Sand.  I ended up going with Crumb Cake, but you can see the difference between the two.  The one on the right has the Sahara Sand cardstock, and it’s a bit brighter.

As an aside, this stamp set coordinates with the Wood Crate Framelits found on page 212 of the catalogue, and if you wanted to get really creative, you could die cut each of the symbols found on the “quilt” and attach them to the card.  I wasn’t about to go to those lengths when I had to make a few cards!  The Wood Words Bundle is $72 for wood mount stamps (145315) or $62 for clear mount stamps (145316).  You will save 10% off of purchasing the stamps and framelits separately.
