In addition to all the stamping demonstrations and business ideas at Regionals, the demonstrators swap card fronts with each other. There are floor swaps - where we all swap with each other as we walk through the room or the hallway. There are also pre-organized swaps with groups of demonstrators who know each other or who have met online. For the organized swaps, there is usually a designated theme and also a planned meeting area either before or after the regional event to swap the cards and catch up with friends. I am doing some swaps for both the floor swaps and some organized group swaps.
This card is my floor swap card. It uses a stamp set, Sense of Time, from the new Occasions Mini Catalog and a few of the In Colors of this year - the dsp is a Baja Breeze pattern from the Occasions Mini Walk In the Park DSP. The ribbon is Pink Pirouette Striped Ribbon from the main catalog. I used Baja Breeze classic ink to stamp the clock image and then the sentiment from Sense of Time is stamped over the clock in Basic Gray classic ink. I liked the Basic Gray here because it's not quite as stark as Basic Black would be. I used a Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to put the sentiment exactly where I wanted it on the clock. I wrapped the Pink Pirouette Striped Ribbon around a narrow strip of Pink Pirouette card stock and secured it with a Rhinestone Brad, instead of just tying a knot. The card base is Cameo Coral, which coordinates with the Pink Pirouette and Baja Breeze, yet gives a little contrast.

It was so nice meeting you at the Minneapolis Regional! Your card is lovely. I didn't even buy this set because I didn't know what to do with it. Your card is gorgeous.

I recieved this as a swap at regionals.. I honestly was not sure what to do with this set, so I did not purchase it. After seeing your sample, I really do like it more! Great card!!
