One of the activities I offer my direct recruits and our Power Team (supervisors and above) is a quarterly Stamp A Rama event - it's a shoebox swap. We each bring a finished card or 3-d project with enough supplies for the rest of us to go around and make each project. We always have a theme, usually related to the current mini catalog or holiday.
Enjoy these projects that my wonderful gals brought to our June Stamp A Rama.
Below, project by Vinnie... I LOVED the Stencil image on GLOSSY cardstock.. wow.. so yummy !
Below, Joy showed us the "tile technique" using a Score Pal, you can also use the SU! Fiskars cutter and your bone folder to make the 1/2" grid of score lines, THEN stamp your image on top. Looks like tiles!

These are both beautiful. I have never done a shoebox swap. How is it done? Can you explain more on your blog please?

Hi Patty, thanks for sharing the cards. The first one, red and brown is so pretty. I am going to have to keep it in mind for the Holidays. The second card with the "tile" technique, I never knew how that was done before. Thanks for letting the cat out of the bag. hee, hee. Now I can make me a card just like that. Have a wonderful day, and great Weekend.
