You must check in 2 weeks before the end date and let me know you are still in the swap. If you need to drop out that is fine life happens but I don't have the time to pm 20 people a few times to see if you are still in the swap. If you can't do this then don't sign up. Thank you.
Here I go again And I could use the help of all you ladies to make this a successful swap. Most of these colors I did in 2009 as a single swap. The Black,white and silver was my 1st swap and very sucessful. So I am putting them all together in one swap.
Navy is as classic as black so I thought it would be nice to make some Cards using the color Navy. I love Navy another classic color. Be creative and have fun with it. So what color will it be for you. Use different color combos with your Navy.
Yellow Bright and sunny cards. So I love all yellows. Be creative and have fun with it. So what color will it be for you. Use different color combos with your Yellow.
Now that the winter months are here and the sky seems black and gray, I thought it would be nice to make some elegant classic cards. So I love black and white for a card and silver is very classy. Or you could use gray. Be creative and have fun with it
Purple the Royal color Gold is also a Royal color.

Stayed up until 2 a.m. watching youtube videos for new techniques and folds. Tried a few of them on my card sets....had great success! So far I'm done with 5 sets of cards. Each time I finish a set, it's my favorite....until I do the next set!!!
