Back home and May Inner Circle Card Swap

Hi everyone!
I am back home after two glorious weeks in Australia with my family. It was so nice to reconnect with my family again after 4 long years. As a kicker, my sister tied the knot. The wedding was beautiful and a good time was had by all.

Here are a few snapshots taken when my mum (mom), sister and I went to the Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne. On the weekends, it's amazing. You can purchase everything from Fresh Fruit, Vegetables, Meat, Eggs, Clothes and Souvenirs...fun fun :)



I thought a few of you would get a kick out of this. The American "Doughnut" truck has been a staple at the Market for as long as I can remember. Of course, they have Australianized the Doughnuts by coating them in granulated sugar as opposed to frosting them or rolling them in powdered sugar.



These "doughnuts" are so friggin' delicious, it is criminal. Who would have thought you could eat 4 of them at one sitting!!...ohh....me of course :)

These were my primary motivation for going along! :-) Yes, it's weird what you miss from the Motherland :-D


OK, enough of my that :)

Here are the long awaited cards from the May Inner Circle Card Swap. As usual, I was totally loving opening each envelope to discover the great cards within. Mine are in the previous post.

These are the cards made for the regular swap:







The challenge for last month was the Criss Cross Card and here are the fabulous creations of each lady who participated in the challenge.

Card Swaps...

Every month I host a card swap and have a great group of ladies participating throughout the US and Canada. These are the cards I made for this month's card swap.

For the regular swap, I used the Stampin' Up! True Friend Stamp set, Bashful Blue, Apricot Appeal and real Rust cardstock and coordinated it with some 5 Gypsies paper and some ribbon I had on hand.



The Challenge for this month was the Criss Cross card. I used Stampin' Up! retired Just Delightful Scrappin' Kit to pull these cards together. I loved this kit and I only have one left! :-D


As I am heading to Australia for two weeks tonight and not all swaps are in as yet, I will swap them out and take photos of each card and post them when I get back.
