It’s so cool to see all the different ideas everyone has! Those ribbon tuck cards are inspiring me, for sure!

I received an AMAZING package from @Smmarrt ! Cast your eyes on these beauties!
A book of affirmation notes, plus a cool blank page journal/notebook from a coffee sleeve, and a wonderful card with a note.
Some gorgeous and delicate prints:
Then, an entire accordion folder stuffed with awesomeness!
PLUS, an extra perfect button inside the card that I will definitely be rocking.
Thank you so much for such a fun swap, Susan! I have swap anxiety now! If you liked your package half as much as I like this one, though, I’ll call it a win. 
I am already scheming up some plans for several of the items.
Thank you, again, to @geekgirl for organizing, too!

I’m happy that you are such an enthusiastic receiver! I do like what you made for me and now that I’m at work I’ll try to get the photos to load. I always like swaps where there is a directive, but lots of room for interpretation. Thanks @geekgirl for a fun & fast swap!

Also, it’s difficult for me NOT to add words to everything I make. So many of the tags & clusters are wordless and you can add to them as you wish.

I love the words! I have the opposite problem, feeling skittish to commit to text on projects, so extra appreciate your style. I don’t know if you stalked me well or it’s a happy conincidence, but so many things are going to be perfect to use for my letter writing group, too (in addition to junk journals, of course)!
These are all gorgeous!! You all are amazing artists!!

Thanks! Glad you like it 
Full disclosure the orange is tea dyed paper and waxed paper. It didnt seem to rub off…but I don’t have a lot of experience with it and I wanted to let you know, in case it might damage something it’s put next to or across from.

So many lovely little pockets! I especially love the hand-stitching.

Oh that’s cool that you dyed it! It looks fine and doesn’t appear to be rubbing off. I’ll keep an eye on it!

This was my first time doing hand stitching in paper crafts. Normally I am mending a plushie or a kids outfit
I did ruin the first watercolored book page pocket trying to sew it and had to make a new one…but the watercolor turned out even better the second time, so all in all it was a win!
I got to try so many new techniques because @geekgirl pinterest suggestions were loaded with ideas!
