Fun Card Swap

I signed up for a card swap on the Paper Crafts site recently. For the first part of the swap, I stamped an image (the retro housewife stamp from Viva Las Vegas stamps) 6 times and then mailed the images to the swap hostess, Susan. She took everyone's images, swapped them and mailed 6 different images out to each of the swap participants. We then had to color the images and make cards from the images. Everyone mails their completed cards back to the swap hostess, she swaps the cards, and then everyone receives 6 cards back made from their images. I love all the cards I received back. I had no idea what to do with this image, and now I have lots of ideas! Aren't these cards fantastic?

WOW...I have to admit. These are absolutely fabulous. Where is your card. LOL I wish I had joined this swap....as for photographing....angelas gave me some really good advice but I don't think I saved the emails. Plus, she hasn't been on the board in along time.
