Card Swap Chain B - Mandy's Card

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn

Today I'm joining the amazing Card Swap Chain Blog Hop with 10 amazing Australian cardmakers.  Our blog hop today is a celebration of the amazing cards we sent and received when we embarked on a fun journey sending cards to each other over a period of months.  It's a card version of "Chinese Whispers".  Each of us designed a card and sent if off to one of the other participants. That person then CASED the card and sent their own version to the next person.  To CASE is to Copy and Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit.  Each person's card made it's way around all 10 of us until finally a verson came home to the designer.  And Now, we are sharing these gorgeous card designs with YOU.  Enjoy the amazingness of everyone's cards and designs.

Today we are sharing a wonderful card designed by Mandy - Card Chain B.  Follow the blog hop ALL the way around to see the evolution of her gorgeous card.

I love an easy Z Fold like this - and I really love seeing all the amazing cards everyone made with this fun fold.  I've used the gorgeous Label me Grateful bundle which featues these super cute leaves and fun label shapes that worked so perfectly for this card.  

The stunning paper (I really do love green!!) comes from the Painterly Pears DSP along with the gorgeous Mossy Meadow and Gold ribbon which I have deconstructed to make a fun embellishment cluster with texture!!  

Make sure you keep hopping to see this amazing evolution!!
