In With The New Card Swap 2014! Part I

I just hosted the 5th year of my In With the New swap.  The first 3 years, I did this in person at the annual Stampin' Up! Convention, and last year I started doing it as a pre-convention mail-in swap.  I have many girls that have stayed with me since the first year because of the quality of the designs.  I got tired of seeing all the same stamps sets (pre-order) used in everyones general swapping.  So, in my swap they must choose a never before seen stamp set to use, and it can only be used once within a group.  This year there were 4 groups of 19-20 swappers.

Over the next few weeks I will be posting all of the cards that were part of this year's swap.  I hope that you enjoy them and get a little inspiration.  If you find a card that you just have to make, all the supplies are listed and can be purchased in my online store.

Sorting out the first group.

Mailing them back to the designers.

Here we go!
