Club Creativity!

Kathie decided to do a little "taking off" of her own at our last club gathering. She had a great idea to add the Pirouette at the top as a flap to hold the card closed. Great job!

Swap Time!

It's our annual club Holiday tag swap!
 Here are "the rules" for this year's swap:
* Please make *5 tags per person in the swap;  5=1 ( I will let you know by Nov 20 how many have signed up). Right now we have 9
They don't have to be all the same tag!  If you have 2 or 3 different styles  for each person, that works  :o)
 *Use at least 3 types of papers; 2 card stocks and 1 BT or 2 BT and 1 cs or...any combo that makes 3 different papers 
*Use at least 1 embellishment; brad, sparkle, eyelet, button...
* Use some type of fiber; ribbon, Bakers Twine, Hemp or Waxy flax

*All CTMH Products!*
Be sure to make a little holder for each person's tags  (no baggies please).   
We will swap these at our Holiday Mystery Hostess gathering on December 6th
