Card Theme Suggestions for 2012

[Merry]

Hi everyone, if you see a particular fold, card technique, colour theme, etc that you would like to try in one of the swaps this year please post the suggestion here. Thanks so much.

I have a couple of suggestions bought forward from last year - ATC's - long time since we did these. Inchies - again, another old favourite to revisit.

I still find 'manly' cards a challenge particularly ones without stamps?

[KARLEEN]

How about gathering together 2 lots of exactly the same materials, keeping one lot to make a card for yourself and send the other lot to your partner who also makes a card and then both parties post a pic to show two completely different cards using the same stuff? Does that make sense? (and post your creation off to your partner as well).

I love this idea!

Having a 'kit' of pieces to send to a partner and see how different we all interpret would be great fun

Yes, Karleen this definetly does make sense and a terrific idea. I think we have done something similar here but a long time ago. Will add this to next months poll.....keep the ideas coming.

That is a great idea Karleen, I'd be up for that - you'd never be short of stuff with me lol. I too find male cards challenging, although for me the stickers nicely solve the problem.
