Chain Mail Card Swap - Layered Thoughts Stamp Set & Celebratory Sips DSP


For the past few months, I have been taking pat in what has been known as a chain mail card swap with fellow Aussie SU demos. Do you remember the game Chinese Whispers you played as a child?

The message never quite came out the same at the end as it started. Well, cards in the chain mail swap can end up that way as well. 


The first card in each blog hop is an original card and then it is posted to the next person on the list and they create their card, CASEing (Copy And Selectively Edit) the card they were mailed and post it onto the next person on the list and it continues on and on through the list. I've loved this challenge CASEing the cards every two weeks when they arrived in my letterbox. I miss the happy mail now the this round is over but we are starting a new one 🙂


For our blog hop today, we are starting with Mandy's card. I suggest you start with her blog post and then click through the link list and see the progression of the cards. 


I love this style of card (Z fold card) it's a great design to showcase DSP and is quick and easy to create. The fun playful style of the Celebratory Sips DSP made this a bright colourful card. I finished it off with the Happy Birthday sentiment from Layered Thoughts Stamp Set, a small amount of fussy cutting for the lemon and lime and some Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
