It's Time for Something Completely Different

I've not done a square card since Stampin' Up! retired square envelopes a few years back, but I'm trying to step out of my "comfort zone" and do things which are a little different... like using colors which are less than my favorite.  I'm sure you can probably figure out which element is my favorite - yes, it is the plaid paper in the background!  Tee hee!  I really love the way this card turned out, and I have a new appreciation for some of these colors. <smile>

It's Swap Time - Again!

No, I'm not swapping... still trying to go through all of the ones received at Stampin' Up!'s Convention.  This is one of the swaps I created for an organized sympathy swap.  This one was very easy to create (good thing since I made 50 of them).  See below for a list of supplies used.
